China → Thailand · tax
In plain termsTwo machines, one remittance hinge. Thailand counts days and remittances; China keeps the six-year rule and domicile tests. If both call you resident, Art 4 breaks the tie — and this pair lets you in where the Korea text would push you out.
There is a treaty — and the RD publishes the text

The individual ladder is the standard five rungs, but Art 4(1) has no source-only carve-out — the Korea-Thailand text has one and this one does not. So a year in which Thailand taxes you on Thai-source income only can still put you inside the Thai side of the definition here, and you can reach the cascade rather than fall out of the treaty. Same-looking pair, different entry gate.

How it stacks with Thai law
Thailand taxes a resident (≥180 days) on Thai-source income and on foreign income remitted into Thailand — read the destination pillar: Thailand tax residency. China may still tax you under domicile or the six-year rule; treaty relief keeps the same yuan from being taxed twice, but never removes the second filing.

Common questions
Is there a China–Thailand tax treaty?
Yes — China appears in Thailand's Revenue Department list of in-force double taxation agreements, and the RD publishes the full English agreement text. Art 4 (Resident) is filed on this page from that text.
If both China and Thailand call me resident, which one wins?
Art 4(2) runs a five-rung cascade: permanent home, then centre of vital interests, then habitual abode, then nationality, then mutual agreement between the two tax authorities. Unlike the Korea–Thailand convention, Art 4(1) here has no carve-out for people taxed on local-source income only — so a Thai-source-only year can still leave you inside the definition and reach the cascade.
How does Thailand's remittance rule interact with the treaty?
Thailand taxes residents on foreign income when it is remitted into the country (Revenue Code §41). Treaty relief must be read against that remittance hinge — do not assume worldwide Thai tax without checking what you actually brought in.
Do China-side traps still apply?
Yes. The six-year rule for individual income tax, domicile concepts, and hukou clearance are Chinese domestic rules. Moving to Thailand does not switch them off.
What is the employment short-stay day count?
China–Thailand measures 183 days within any twelve-month period under Article 15.

A screenshot from a group has no check month and no gazette link. A chatbot paragraph can mix OECD-model wording with the wrong pair. Here the cell either cites a primary source or stays an em dash — we refuse to invent the limb so you can hand the open chain to counsel.
Method: how a fact cell works. Desk with memory when cells move: firms. Canonical pair: /china-to-thailand/tax.
