The same old question.

Proof of income (TAX) 40,000 Baht BEFORE expension (means around 3000 Baht tax per year.

OR (!)

40,000 Baht AFTER expension and before deducation. (means around 24,000 Baht tax/year).

I hear some guys saying the right option is the right one that immigration wants to see.

The 40k monthly income requirement for the marriage extension is the gross income paid by the employer, ie before deduction of tax, social security, etc.

From the topic title:

Non 'o' 1 Year Visa/ 40,000/month., how much tax do you pay

To get a non-O visa valid for one year, good for multiple journeys to Thailand, you do not need to show evidence of income and/or tax paid on income.

So..the first option (3000 Baht) or the later one (24,000 Baht).

I think there's a big confussion with this requirment.

Some guy told me he pay 3000 Baht. however I'm not sure if he have or not have income from oversea which in this situation he just need to reach together here and his income combine together to 40,000 Baht/month.

very difficult to understand.

It does not affect me. But going on the posts on this forum the average amount of tax paid on 40,000 a month is around 2,500 Baht a month.

As I said, I am only going on reports here.

Yes, it's well over 2,000 THB pcm with regular allowances.

Check this link - it's not totally up to date, but there's loads of Thai Income Tax info in good English http://www.rd.go.th/publish/6045.0.html

I know with “pcm” you mean “per month”, but what do the individual letters in your “pcm” stand for? It hasn’t made it into acronymfinder.com yet, I believe:

Income requirement depends on where your income is derived. If you are earning income inside Thailand, then you will need to present work permit of course. You should be able to provide a withholding tax form (PND 1 / Por ngor Dor 1). This is normally prepared by your company so why the hassle of computing taxes??? The accountant in the company prepares these documents.

If you are earning income abroad however, is a lot easier.. all you need is a letter from your embassy stating that you ear 40,000 baht monthly (minimum). Have it certified at your embassy and this will suffice!

I got this information from one of the Sponsors here (SBA). For any confusion at all, you can contact them. They offer free consultation I've heard.

Per Calender Month ?

Per Calender Month ?

I have never heard of that term being used in the business world LOL. There's only calendar year and fiscal year but calendar month? Good suggestion though

I stand to be corrected. Apparently there is a term called per calendar month

Yes...the income requirement is for visa extension, not visa

so..impossible that someone pays the tax of 3000 Baht per year and pass..is that right?

Someone told me he pay the 3000 Baht tax per year and LIABLE to get a non 'o' extention of stay for 1 year. Do I miss something here??? maybe he have some income apart from this income from business in thailand?

I just dont want to feel like a sucker..

Thank you. So it is there, after all, also on acronymfinder.com (where I had checked) but I did not look carefully enough.

Per Calender Month - It's from the same date one month to the same date the next; e.g. the 17th of February to the 17th of March.

Often used in English when referring to monthly salary, rent, etc which are due on the same date every month.
