@Glen ********

yea i dont intend or have any income in australia

its what people do when a country overtaxes its people, go 'live somewhere they dont.

tax free threshold is only worth 19 K , being a non resident and not liable for tax in Australia is more beneficial by far.

Non Resident of Australia you mean or Thailand ?

Michael can i pm you pls ?

from revenue dept 1.Taxable Person

Taxpayers are classified into “resident” and “non-resident”. “Resident” means any person residing in Thailand for a period or periods aggregating more than 180 days in any tax (calendar) year. A resident of Thailand is liable to pay tax on income from sources in Thailand as well as on the portion of income from foreign sources that is brought into Thailand. A non-resident is, however, subject to tax only on income from sources in Thailand.

oh

from what ive read, if you stay over 180 days, you must become Thai resident

yes working outside thailand

the 180 days is if you stay over your classed as a resident and income tax is payable
