Thailand considers anyone who stays at least 180 days per year in the country a tax resident. This threshold is based on immigration records of entry and exit. In other words, once you stay more than six months in Thailand, you are officially a tax resident.
Thailand has signed Double Taxation Agreements (DTAs) with many countries, including France. This helps prevent income from being taxed twice. For example, if a Thailand Privilege member has already paid taxes in their home country, they may usually claim a tax credit in Thailand.
Thailand just extended the Thailand Privilege Bronze Membership deadline to March 31, 2026, giving future expats more time to lock in the 650,000 THB rate and enjoy a 5-year multi-entry visa with VIP airport fast-track and lifestyle perks.
