Thailand Property Tax >> Tax and Cost Calculation for Transferring Property

TAX AND COST CALCULATION FOR TRANSFERRING PROPERTY IN THAILAND

 

Example of how to Calculate Taxes and Costs:

1. Suppose that the government assessed price is Baht 50,000 per Sq.m.

2. All areas are 100 Sq.m.

3. The total assessed price is Baht 5,000,000

4. Actual selling price is 6,000,000

5. The Seller possessed this property for 3 years

 


     
1. Withholding Taxes


The government assessed price = 5,000,000 Baht
Deduction with the expense of possession for 3 years for 77% = 3,850,000


Balance = 1,150,000 (5,000,000 – 3,850,000)
Divided by the 3 year of possession
Balance = 383,333.33 (1,150,000/3)


Taxation on progression rate
1 to 80,000 = exempt
80,001 - 100,000 = 5% (1,000)
100,001 383,333.33 = 10% (28,333.23)
Total = 29,333.23 (1,000 + 28,333.23)


Multiply by the year of possession = 87,999.69 (29,333.23 x 3)


In this case withholding tax is Baht 87,999.69 (A)

2. Government Fee for Transfer


Is 2% based on the government assessed price so 5,000,000 x 2% Balance = 100,000


Transfer fee is 100,000 (B)

 

3. Stamp Duty


in this case is exempt. This is because transaction is subject to the specific Business Tax (possession of less than 5 year before sale).

 

4. Specific Business Tax


3.3% for Specific Business Tax based on the government assessed price or sale whichever is higher. In this case sale price is higher than government so 6,000,000 x 3.3% = 198,000.

Specific Business Tax is Baht 198,000 (C)

 

Total expenses are: Baht 385,999.69 (A+B+C)
