如何在没有工作许可的情况下获得泰国税号(数字游民)

In this article, I am going to show you how to get your very own Thai tax ID to pay taxes in Thailand without having a work permit.

I’ll also explain in this article why you would want a Thai tax ID as a digital nomad.

Why would you want to pay income tax in the first place?

If you’re making serious amounts of money it’s a good idea to have a legitimate paper trail of your income.

I don’t enjoy paying taxes but it’s part of the game we play so I do what I can to play within the rules and minimize my tax burden.

Thailand has a double tax treaty with lots of countries including mine, which means if I pay income tax in Thailand, I am not required to pay income tax in England on that income remitted.

In Thailand, income remitted to Thailand during the same tax year it was earned is subject to taxation.

This means if you make $100,000 in personal income within their tax year but only bring $40,000 into Thailand through the use of ATMs or bank wire, you only pay tax on the $40,000 bought into the country.

If you bring the $60,000 earned into the country the following year, there is no taxation because you did not earn it in the current year of taxation.

What you need to get your very own Tax ID

There are two pieces of documents you need to be able to apply for a tax ID as a digital nomad, they are:

  • Passport
  • Lease agreement (ideally 12 months)

You will also need a reason to apply for a Thai Tax ID. I told them that I live in Thailand and bring money into the country from overseas work which needs to be taxed.
