Netherlands Tax Residency Test
The Netherlands has no day-count rule. Article 4 AWR asks only where you live judged by the circumstances, and Dutch case law reads that as a durable personal tie to the country — most often evidenced by a home available to you and where your household is. Counting days will not settle your position here.

Roughly how many days were you present in the Netherlands during the calendar year?
Recorded for context only. There is no Dutch day threshold: the 183 days people associate with the Netherlands comes from the employment article of its tax treaties, not from the domestic residence test. A high count is evidence of a durable tie; a low count does not displace one.
