Withholding tax may be collected at transfer and is calculated differently depending on whether the seller is an individual or juristic person and on the relevant official values and facts. It should not be estimated from a generic percentage alone. The Revenue Department provides tax rules and calculators, but the transaction lawyer or accountant should prepare the calculation for the specific seller. This is general educational information, not legal, tax or financial advice. Property structures, taxes, licences and registration practice can change or depend on the facts. Use an independent Thai lawyer and, where relevant, a qualified accountant before committing money or signing documents. Confirm current figures with the Land Office, lawyer, accountant, insurer or manager relevant to the transaction.
