Overview

Why Thailand?

Thailand has a corporate tax rate of 20% on net profits. Small companies with paid-up capital under THB 5 million and annual revenue under THB 30 million pay 15% on profit between THB 300,000 and THB 3 million, and 20% above. VAT is 7% (currently reduced from 10%).

There is no separate capital gains tax for companies: gains on disposals are part of the company profit and subject to corporate income tax. Dividends paid to foreign companies not carrying on business in Thailand are subject to 10% withholding tax. How distributions are taxed in your hands depends on your residence.

Strasia Group handles accounting and tax for your company in Thailand: ongoing bookkeeping, the monthly VAT returns and the annual corporate tax return.
