Liquorice Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 @Jack1988 The METV (multi entry Tourist visa) is valid to enter Thailand for 6 months. Each entry permits a stay of 60 days, which can be extended for a further 30 days at Immigration, before doing a border run for a further entry. It's possible to stay in Thailand for almost 270 days with the METV. You could then do a couple of further border runs and re-enter visa exempt, granting a further permitted stay of 30 days, which can be extended a further 30 days. That would bring you approx a year in Thailand. If you have deep pockets, you could also consider the multi entry Elite visa. Valid for 5 years, each entry permits a stay of 1 year. Knowing your nationality and age may determine options. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never heard about that before It's an aggregate of 180 or more. The type of visa is irrelevant. (Added) Except for three of four categories related to Long Term Resident visa that specifically tax exempts foreign income.

If you continue with this you're going to create a lot of trouble for all of us. Pay your taxes on the basis of your own situation, and leaveus to do the same. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alidiver Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 Officially, you can but immigration will make it difficult when you reenter. Check you have enough funds and say that you're not a tourist. Someone said "ridiculous " having to complete a tax form. If you are out of UK for nine months of a tax year, you become tax excempt so Thailand can tax you. Finally, consider insurance. Normal UK insurance companies will not cover you over six months and accidents do happen. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
