Thai Tax Residency

What if you moved to Thailand, became a tax resident, obtained a Tax Identification Number (TIN), but then returned to Australia or stayed in Thailand for less than 180 days before going home for a year? If during this period you sold your home and then returned to Thailand later, would the sale of your home be taxable? Also, if you have a TIN and become a non-tax resident, earning foreign income and returning to Thailand in another calendar year, is the sale of your home considered taxable income?

You can have a TIN and not be a tax resident in a following year correct.

To retire in Thailand permanently, I would have to be 100% certain that the sale of my house was not taxable as I would be paying Thai tax at 35%.

We need more context around this to give a definitive answer, but in principle you could sell the asset while you are a non-Thai tax resident. You need to check the DTA in place between the country where the house is situated and Thailand.
