he actually mentionned MORE than 180 days, 350 days is MORE than 180 days.

No English is not my first language, that will be your last argument ? ^^

@Mark *******

he did not mention not staying full year.

@Mark *******

good luck to stay in thailand "full year" and say that your habitual abode is not mainly in thailand 😑. If your income is from country with dta it is not big deal...

Participant(e) anonyme if you don't want to be tax resident in thailand, don't stay more than 180 days in thailand. Your home country mean nothing about tax, what is important is : 1/ your country tax residency ( that will probably be thailand if you stay more than 180 days here). 2/ the country from where come your income. If you remit that income to thailand, you need to pay maybe tax money on it, if the income come from country with dta, you can use them as tax credit ( to lower the thai tax to maybe / probably 0 ). What kind of income you have ? The benefit of being thai tax is you may not have to pay tax elsewhere ( or lower tax ). If you already pay > 35% on income from dta country you will pay 0% in thailand. If your income is about 1.7 millions baht/yearly and already pay about 20% tax from dta country you will pay 0 in thailand. The main problem is that even if you have to pay 0, you need to do tax report and accounting ( most people dont do ) 😞

Participant anonyme 600 most of the time it say the country where you spend most of the time and have your habit in the year.

Probably if you are well up 500k.

The 500k need to be in cash saving or available cash bank account ( no investment )

Anonymous participant 600 and and most of the time Article 4 define residency in the country you spend "most of your time and have your habit".

And in that scenario, both country can fight to get tax from you 🙂 , good luck.

Better to have a "clean" tax residency, if you play you can lose ;)

what is unclear ? did you read the official english PDF of thai tax revenue ? There is also a PWC document available ? what you don't understand ?
