You are absolutely right and of course I will pay a Thai accountant to help me with this.

I just wanted to reach out to my fellow HN users beforehand to get some insight into other people's experiences and this is one of the best places to do that IMHO as I have already read some very wise comments on this beautiful orange website which makes me want to ask here instead of some sub-reddit ;-)

Luckily I am not a US citizen (or Eritrean) so it should be a bit easier for me (fingers crossed as I type this).
