Has anyone been prosecuted in Thailand for failing to register for tax purposes?

Greg *********

I hear so much conflicting information, yes you have to get a TIN and file a tax return, no you don’t, etc. I’m just going to wait to see how it all pans out. If I do have to file, it will be next year anyway. Should be sorted out by then. Anyone that says they know definitely about it, is full of it as far as I’m concerned.
