Why not declare all tourists tax residents for the duration of stay?

 

Require arriving tourists to submit a copy of their latest home country tax return on entry, and to pay income tax at the nearest TRD office, obtaining a tax clearance certificate in order to depart.

 

You might think it's a joke but if you spend more than 3 months in India you have to get a tax clearance certificate and you have to produce evidence of money exchanges and what you spent your money on!!

 

At least when I was there in 1990.

A key feature of the proposed tax is the inclusion of an insurance premium, capped at 60 baht per person from the collected 300 baht. It offers a 30-day protection, aligning with the average tourist stay duration, covering up to 1 million baht in the case of accidental death, and 500,000 baht for injuries.

If we stay longer why not paying 300 THB every 30 days  to get this 60 baht per person insurance ? 555

Thailand is set to introduce a 300-baht tourism tax for air travellers, aiming to manage the growing influx of tourists.

 

Dowe  have to understand that Thailand would prefer having less tourists ?

If they are so concerned about the influx of visitors, then they need to stop giving out free visa on arrivals. They want the numbers but obviously can’t handle it anymore. This will cause a major backup at the airport. I don’t think the amount will stop anyone from traveling, but the headache will.

Any excuse is good in Thailand to snatch away money from foreigners and tourists.

if it only covers 60 baht max, the tax should be.... 60 baht max

 

the rest is money grab

 

wait till some human smuggler find a loophole and sending cheap slave labors in 'accidental' death traps

 

300 baht... why not offer expats this deal, would pay 300 baht a month x 12 extra, to be 'covered'
