Thai Pr & Taxes ..

[asiaworld]

After having just read the post in general topics,by coalminer that made me think .

As we all know , the main requirement for thai PR IS paying taxes.. Now as a passive investor >>properties + bank deposits (which ARE taxed) what would be my chances of applying for PR, showing the taxes paid from those investments , instead of those based on employment income ..

Specialists advise please ..

I would think you would need buckets of money in the bank to generate anywhere near the taxes they are looking for and bear in mind tax is only one of the considerations for PR - although a BIG one

Didnt I read somewhere that you need taxable earnings of at least 80k Bht per month? Near as makes no difference 1 million.

To generate that amount of earnings would need a pretty big investment in a Thai savings account!

But maybe it's doable. Opens another possible route to PR I guess.
