Any retired expat who remains in Thailand for more than a cumulative 179 days each calendar year is considered to be tax resident here whether they like it or not. This is mot a matter of choice whether to be tac resident or not, if you remain here you are.
No they are not. Where in the visa regulations do you find this?

tax residents are taxed and in Thailand's case, taxed based on income that is remitted.
I am not 'Tax Resident' in Thailand, I doubt that many retired expats are.

“some reports suggest for Chinese produced cars, somewhere between 6 to 10 years”
But you can’t name them so clearly you just made that up.
My BYD came with an 8yr 160,000km warranty after which it’s guaranteed to have at least 80% of it’s original capacity. In my case over 400km of range.

“after 2 years or so, any 'run of the mill' EV will have no resale value”Fact checked and it turns out to bs
Well we will see won't we.

It's true. All the Chinese companies are doing it.
Check the numbers. In 2023 China sold circa 39 million EVs World Wide. If they keep up this rate of growth, possible, maybe, in the average 8 year span life of most EV batteries, think of how many customers will be looking for them to replace the key component. You either end up with a massive supply problem on lithium (lots of other technologies have a call on the chemicals, not least mobile devices and aircraft, civil and military), or the whole thing comes to a grinding halt. Lot's of EVS parked up with nowhere to go. However you cut it, the economics of EVs just doesn't add up.

The batteries all have 20-year warranties now, and many have lifetime warranties.

Batteries, the most expensive item on an EV , are lifed items, some reports suggest for Chinese produced cars, somewhere between 6 to 10 years. That effectively means that after 2 years or so, any 'run of the mill' EV will have no resale value, especially as the Chinese are discounting to grab market share. My ICE Vios is 7 years old, has a resale and part X value of around 250K and its engine parts can all be replaced relatively cheaply. EVs are a monumental scam, sold on misinformation, bad economics, unproven environmental statements and to folk who think they are cool and trendy.

Many EV owners don't really seem concerned at losing ~200k baht on paper.
They will lose all the value of any EV after 5 tears,

A different of 20 vehicles will not make a difference in the EV percentage market share, which is our best indicator.
As far as I know, it is only in July autolife was off by 300 cars, but I will send you the data set. If you spot any other abnormalities, I will update the chart.
How very odd. Why is this of such interest that you go through the performance of charts and stats. Weird.

Without clicking on the link I know immediately which openly anti China, Falungong backed, lie spreading YoTube channel this will be from (their videos have been fact checked and debunked on here many times).
PS It's the same channel that posted an ICE fire and called it a Chinese EV fire and that showed a stunt car explosion from a movie set and said it was a Chinese EV spontaneously exploding as it was being charged.
But there are always goons to swallow their lies and repost them without checking anything at all. Ah, hello.There are more lies, misinformation, twisted truths, distortion, misdirection, pure unbelievable nonsense, that comes out of China, from China, than ever goes the other way. If that lot swallowed a nail they would sxxt a corkscrew.

11 minutes ago, KhunHeineken said:Your assessment is because it may force some expats to leave Thailand for 6 months a year, the Thai's will not implement it, but world wide income is a global policy, spreading across many countries.
You are wrong. There is no international agreement on double taxation of income. You pay tax where you are tax resident, or where you generate additional untaxed funds, you do not pay tax by international agreement where tax has been previously paid, unless its a one off tax not tied to income, such as a tourist tax on arrival or on travel tickets etc .

A None Immigrant O or OA is nothing more than a glorified tourist visa. It gives no more certainty of long term living in the country than does a long term tourist visa. Do you think that for one moment, tourists are going to have to pay Thai tax on money they bring into the country, even if they extend past 180 days? Do you therefore believe that retired expats will be swept up into this, even if the criteria published to date does not show or state this? Do you believe that the Thais are so short sighted that those with the None O or OA will leave the country after 180 days and use their not inconsiderable spending power sitting on a beach in Cambodia or Vietnam and deprive the Thai treasury of much more than the tax they would otherwise pay, if that were proposed? I don't believe any of this.
