Question here for the DTV holders currently residing in Thailand longer than 180 days per year therefore becoming liable for Thai income tax returns. Does anyone here have any experience dealing with a local agent that understands the situation and double tax treaties? I’m a full time online freelancer earning %100 of my income from Australian clients and pay Australian income taxes and GST. Any experience from others or recommendations for a local agent would be appreciated as we are intending to stay for 1 full year leaving the country only a few times between those 180 day periods for some other travel. From what I understand you’re only taxed on what is remitted into Thailand however it seems largely a grey area.

If I stay for 90 days in Thailand, then fly out to Malaysia for a week, then I repeat the above process 1 more time in a year ,

, and I do this every year, do I still need to pay tax to Thailand ?

Tax Resident: if I understand it correctly you are only considered a tax resident if you stay more than 180 days per calendar year? This year I will be staying 166 days in Thailand, my plan is also to stay here the whole month of january 2025. Just want to hear your thoughts on this, I am 100 % sure I wont be considered a tax resident for 2024? Do they look at calendar year only, so I will be safe for 2024? Note: I know there are DTA in place but its impoirtant to me I do not became a tax resident here. Thanks for any advice!

Hey:)

I heard that DTV holders need to pay taxes as well.

Does anyone knows if its correct? 🙏

Hi, the question is about taxes incoming from DTV visa.

If a DTV holder stays in Thailand for more than 180 days per year he is subject to taxes.

Questions:

1) What are the taxes in % and where/whom should I pay that? How to make it official?

2) If I leave before 180 days and come back again in 1 month will I still need to pay taxes or the period will reset back to zero days of standing?

3) What if I receive salary in Crypto?

Thanks!

Important heads up for DTV holder who are resident in Thailand for 180 days. You mut complete PND94. The Half-Year Tax Filing Deadline is Fast Approaching... Do You Need to File a PND94?

This only applies to certain types of income:

For all new DTV holders who submitted their tax returns to get their visa:

Specifically for Canadians, does the Thai Elite Visa truly offer Thailand tax residency and will free me from Canadian taxes? After 180 days staying in TH? Are there any Canadians with an Elite Visa that can attest to this?

Would also love to chat with a a professional if any are around!
