Staying over 180 days in a calendar year makes you a Thai tax resident. The DTV is categorized as a tourist visa so it does not automatically trigger tax obligations, but the 180-day rule still applies. Private healthcare is excellent and cheap (~$50 for a doctor visit).

Next steps for moving to Thailand
Interested in this property? Here's how to move forward.
Understand the buying rules
Foreign ownership laws vary wildly by country. Some welcome you, others restrict or ban foreign buyers entirely.
Sort out your visa
Owning property doesn't give you the right to live there. Research residency options before you buy.
Plan your finances
Understand currency risk, international wire transfers, and whether you can get a local mortgage.
Know your tax obligations
US citizens are taxed on worldwide income. You'll need to file US taxes from abroad and may owe local taxes too.
Set up healthcare
Medicare doesn't cover you overseas. You'll need international health insurance or a local plan.
Run the full checklist
Banking, mail forwarding, power of attorney, pet import rules โ the complete pre-move checklist.
