> Generally speaking, you don’t become a tax resident of a country unless you live there for 183 days in a given tax year

183 days may indeed be sufficient to automatically qualify you for tax residency, but there are other tests, if you're not careful you may (unwittingly) become tax resident in a country with a stay of less than 183 days.

Perhaps significantly less, depending on where else you've been (and for how long), and what you were doing in the year(s) before the year in question.

See - for instance - the Statutory Residence Test ( https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/rdr3-statutory-re... ) in the UK.
