You don't need to offer me good luck, I've never used a visa agent in the 18 years I've been here! For me it's the 65k monthly transfers - no brainer

Yep. 180 days, the DTA cuts in and then determines tax residency. People undertaking courses in Thailand as a tourist are not going to be taxed. Period

I live in Thailand for around eight months of the year (240 days) and yet I am not a Thai Tax Resident. Do not listen to the fear-mongers, they have no idea

180 days is a starting point. That's when the DTA comes into play. The DTA determines actual tax residency. Period
