Chris ***********

Dtv visa, child under 18 goes as a dependant, needs their own visa application

At 12, can have an education visa (for thai classes, muay thai etc)

Will I need to pay double tax in both the UK and Thailand under a DTV Visa?

Chris ***********

🤣🤣🤣

The dtv prevents you from working and earning money in thailand. The dtv visa is either soft power or working remotely with income from outside of Thailand

If you're going to comment I would suggest you look into the visa requirements and limitations first

Will I need to pay double tax in both the UK and Thailand under a DTV Visa?

Chris ***********

If you stay in thailand for 180 days or less (at a time) then no thailand tax

If you go over 180 days you need to register to pay tax

Dtv is designed so that you only do 180 days a time to avoid this problem.
