That’s true (but it’s “more than 179”).

The reason this came up only since approx 2 years is that they changed (the interpretation of) a taxation policy during 2023.

Until then, Foreign income would become “untaxed savings” at year end.

Since 2024 this is no longer the case and foreign income earned while being tax resident remains taxable (when being brought into Thailand and not protected by a double tax treaty and and and…).

Yeah… Use your left left-bound lights and then cause an accident while turning right….

“I believe it’s more likely the lights referred to a right turn”. 🤣

The judge will be really impressed with your explanation. 😉

The answer to the OP is as simple as your “It will get dark tonight”. Great example! 👍

You get conflicting answers because many answer from their own perspective. Having a tax liability is a very personal thing and entirely depends on your personal circumstances.

I see to often that people ask a tax related question without giving information and then many jump the keyboard to give conclusive answers.

We have a special group on Thai Tax Rules where we try to avoid / correct such answers. 1800+ members including a few Thai tax lawyers.

Oh, such a smart analysis. 👍

Also there were two type of responders: Male and female

There were two type of answers: With spelling errors and without spelling errors.

Are you a financial analyst for DT? 🤣

Wrong. Everybody says the same: When you’re 180 days or more within a calendar year in Thailand then you are Thai tax resident, which is the full and complete answer to the remark / question of the O.P.

So.. Again… What confusion?

there are security upgrades at several Thai banks. The other banks will follow so the whole thing will be finished within a few weeks.
