Pay tax - how many times per year?

[zmisha]

I am a digital nomad with monthly payments from overseas.
I used to think that I can pay tax for 2024 only one time - for example in this month is not too late.

But according to this article -

Quote

Individuals who have received income under section 40 (5) – (8) of the Revenue Code, with non-salary income like as income from rent, commissions, royalties, professional fees, dividends etc, have to report income earned from January to June and pay taxes with the a half-year personal income tax return (PND 94 form).

So it turns out that I am late with paying the tax for the first half of 2024 and will get a penalty when I try to pay the tax for the whole of 2024? Or can I still pay the tax without penalties?

You are a digital nomad, so you have income. Tax for 2024 has to be filed before April-1 2025

You don't pay tax in Thailand is a digital nomad.

You shall file a tax return not later than 31st March. You can do it online with E-filling, if you already has a Thai TIN; otherwise, get a TIN and file online.

If you already have paid foreign income tax, you cannot claim deduction online at the moment, in that case you need to file an old fashioned tax return on paper in Thai language.

 

Due tax can be paid immediately, or you can apply for tax-payment in three installments.
