Hey everyone - especially the Perpetual Travellers among you!
I keep reading that people needed to provide tax statements during the application. How do you handle this if you haven't been a tax resident anywhere during the last couple of years? Any personal experiences welcome π Thanks!!!!

TLDR : Answer Summary
The discussion revolves around the challenges faced by individuals applying for a visa in Thailand without a tax residency. Participants share their experiences regarding varying requirements for tax statements in different countries, noting that while some countries like the UK and the US ask for tax returns, others like Cambodia and Laos do not. Some members highlight personal experiences in being accepted for visa applications without providing tax statements, emphasizing that documentation requirements can differ widely by country.
, not exactly. You pay taxes in the country you're a tax resident in. Or, if you're from the US or Ethiopia, you pay taxes based on nationality. There is a whole "science" around this. Google Perpetual Traveller+taxes if you want to learn more about how it's done.
sadly it doesn't work like that. I'm not tax resident in the UK but I have to pay UK tax as that's where my income is. I am tax resident in Thailand but I don't have to pay tax in Thailand as I have no income in Thailand, nor do I remit any income to Thailand.
Cambodia, Jakarta, Taipei, Yangon, Laos, Manilla are great options. There are legit reasons to not even have a tax return so you should not be worried about your non-tax resident status..

It is only Vietnam where I have seen they are asking for evidence of tax returns. Just try a country where they do not ask.
