having proof of cash or what money you remit into the country has nothing to do with your legal obligation to report how much money you remit into the country. if you don’t file taxes just because “they can’t track it anyway” you’re literally evading taxes because YOU are obligated to report your tax duties. The revenue department can summon and audit you, then it’s on YOU to generate proof that you are NOT obligated to pay any taxes, not the other way around

being a tax resident or not has nothing to do with the type of visa you hold. You can even be a tax resident under an educational visa or a visa exempt as long as you spend more than 180 days in Thailand per year (except if explicitly stated otherwise through some special visas). so yes you do qualify as tax resident if you spent more than 180 days in the country a year, no matter if you have a DTV or not

it’s a common thing to at least file taxes when you qualify as a tax resident and you fall in the bucket of tax residents that must file taxes. It’s the law in pretty much any country

that is very obvious and i understand that but i am sure many DTV holders (me included) do qualify and have to file taxes. this includes money remitted into thailand post-2024.
