TLDR : Answer Summary
If you are staying in Thailand on a Digital Nomad Visa (DTV) for more than 180 days, you become a Thai tax resident automatically. However, you only need to obtain a Thai Tax Identification Number (TIN) if you earn 120,000 baht or more from assessable income while residing in Thailand. Simply staying longer than 180 days does not require a TIN, but if your income exceeds this threshold, then both a TIN and tax return filing are necessary.
incorrect, that not how Tax residency works. Inside the Kingdom for 180 days within a calendar year and you are a tax resident, regardless of how many times you exit.
no, you will never be treated as a Thai person at the places where they charge dual prices.
Not even people with thai ID cards get fair treatment.
There are VERY few exceptions to this, where having a Thai ID card/drivers license enables you to pay the thai price. And that only applies if the person working in the booth wants to do it.
Or just pay the higher entrance fees and consider the taxes paid π

No, but if you spend 180 days or more inside Thailand in any calendar year then you are automatically a Thai tax resident. If during that calendar year you bring 120k baht of assessable income or more into Thailand then you need both a TIN and to complete a Thai tax return

No, you have to qualify in order to obtain a TIN, just being here 180 days means you are Thai tax resident, that is all. To be required to obtain a TIN you must remit assessable income above minimum thresholds.
