No, its not my plan B. How would they enforce tax collection for people on Non O Multiple entry visas? Is the tax man going to be knocking on my door when he doesn’t know where I live??

Also, as a Multi Entry visa is obtained out of country I don’t see how the tax issue can be connected to your visa, ie they couldn’t ask for proof that you have paid tax like they could at immigration office in Thailand. unless they start asking for tax returns for all Non O multi entry visas abroad? Highly doubtful.

I could easily do that. No problem for me.

If Thailand does indeed bring in this ridiculous tax policy on foreign income generated abroad then it should be relatively easy for us married folk to dodge the bullet. Apparently to be considered Tax resident one has to be in country in excess of 180 days. As a Multi Entry Non O visa grants you stay of maximum 90 days per time, this would negate the tax resident status. Always have your Plan B in the back burner ready to go, folks. thinks can change out here in the blink of an eye.

I hope they all had work permits..

Your 2 favourite days from last year whatever 2 days it was that you didnt post anything here!

are you taking your tent with you?

These are the smart Thais who know what will happen if such a policy comes to fruition.

my right to complain is why I get out of bed in the morning. suck it up, buttercup!

thanks for the clarification mate! 4% .... wow. I hope srettha has a money tree in his garden cos its gonna take some serious shaking to get the required funds!

I think its something like only 20% of the workforce pay Tax in Thailand, it could be even lower, perhaps someone can clarify that. As for taxing farangs, yeah good luck with that. Enjoy the exodus when you try to tax the golden goose. Another harebrained idea that will backfire on them.. dont get me started on the tax kiosks at airports ????

silly policy that will bankrupt the economy. where does he think the money is going to come from to finance it? I wish you the best, Thailand. Everything that will happen to you in the foreseeable future is of your own making.

what a farce. everything is about appearances here. there's no real substance beneath anything! just get on with your jobs instead of worrying about hairstyles for god sake. It's not a bloody fashion parade!! Ridiculous.

That would be my fear here too. especially in the middle of the night.. make sure to get your rabies shots! ????

they have daily flights, you know..

Braindead response.
