TLDR : Answer Summary
Remote workers in Thailand need to understand their tax obligations if they stay over 180 days. Opinions vary, with some suggesting that tax liability can be minimal or none depending on individual circumstances. Others advise against paying taxes due to lack of benefits provided by the Thai government for such payments. It is recommended to consult with the local tax office to clarify one’s personal tax situation and obtain necessary paperwork.
You don’t get any benefits in return for paying taxes such as healthcare , pension, drinkable water here in Thailand etc, don’t be a fool
Put some money away incase they do enforce it but proactively paying tax on remitted income is downright theft from this government… you are already propping up many Thais livelihoods by spending here
All you doing is lining the pockets of corrupt Thai government officials, misuse of government budgets here is ridicolous

Do some good research and you may discover whilst you might have some paperwork to be filed you will have little or zero Thai tax liability. It depends on your personal financial circumstances and everyone’s is different.

You should visit your local tax office to begin the process. Explain your situation they may or may not give you a Tax ID.
