Hi All ,

Are there anybody who knows about this ? 

According to the law, anyone who stays in Thailand for over 180 days out of a calendar year will be considered a tax resident by the Thai government. You will be liable to pay Thai taxes on your foreign income if you are a tax resident, even if you hold a Destination Thailand Visa.

TLDR : Answer Summary

Foreigners who stay in Thailand for more than 180 days within a calendar year are classified as tax residents by the Thai government. This classification means they are required to pay tax on their foreign income, especially when it is transferred to Thailand during their residency. A comment confirms this understanding and provides a resource for further information.

All correct, if you are Thai tax resident then foreign sourced income when remitted into Thailand whilst tax resident is subject to Thai tax law.
