What happens if you stay in Thailand for more than 6 months regarding taxes?

What happens if you stay in Thailand for more than 6 months regarding taxes?

John **********

If you are inside Thailand for 180 days or more in a Thai tax year and you bring income into Thailand then you are required to file a Thai tax return. Whether you will have to pay tax or not will depend on your circumstances, tax allowances, credit for tax already paid elsewhere on the income etc
