Can I still be considered Dutch tax resident after moving?

Yes, if you maintain strong personal or economic ties with the Netherlands, the Belastingdienst may continue to treat you as a resident. Owning property, having a partner or family in the country, or spending significant time there are all factors that strengthen Dutch residency claims. To establish tax residency clearly in Thailand and avoid dual taxation, it is often advisable to cut as many ties as possible—a process sometimes referred to as ‘burning bridges.’ Dual residency disputes can arise, but the DTA contains tie-breaker rules to determine where you are ultimately resident.
