My friend moved to Thailand last year He get taxed about 28.000 baht.He said the next one would be 65.000 baht so he is now changing his visa to a extension visa.He was told to bring pictures of his family life in Thailand with him to immigration.He is married to a thai and they have a daughter together.

Visa or extension type, anc marriage to a Thsi, has absolutely  no effect on tax liability.

 

The only factors are whether here 180 days or more in a year and the amount of assessable income either  earned in or remitted to Thailand.
