As a freelancer you would be able to show a contract with the company that specifies that you can work remotely? If not, then get one.

Wise account in the US, which can be used to deposit US funds???

@Stefani *******

it is a Thailand group, and discussing money coming into Thailand. How does your situation have any impact?

Someone is making up scare stories out of thin air. Their 15 mins I guess

Anonymous participant 233 you could ask your bank for a statement as at today. Some Aussie banks allow online requests and send within a day or two

I don't think there is any requirement for the funds to be in a singular account. But as always every application point will make their own rules.

Not sure that counts as working remotely? Most interested in how you go. Please keep us informed.

@Elías *******

I'm confused. Let's keep it simple, if I don't have any financial accounts in Thailand, how does my home country know I'm here to notify Thai revenue. And how does Thai revenue know to check my CRS data if I'm not tax resident? Unless they take a data feed from immigration to establish tax residency status.

@John *********

thanks. I guess my main point was that if you have no Thai fiscal accounts then how would the other country know to send your data to Thai revenue. Conversely how would Thai revenue know to request data from another country. Unless Thai revenue is accessing the immigration database to see who is in the country for more than 180 days in a tax year ?

@John *********

I thought the CRS used end of year balances and distributed to any country within the group as required? Without an electronic audit trail of transfer into Thailand I'm not sure the CSR would assist Thai revenue.
