Tax Law
Tax Law in Thailand
As a tax lawyer Thailand businesses and individuals turn to for practical guidance, Duensing Kippen helps clients navigate Thailand’s complex and frequently updated tax framework with confidence.
Thai tax law is complex and frequently updated. Corporate income tax, personal income tax, VAT, specific business tax, and withholding tax all apply differently depending on the nature of the transaction, the structure of the business, and the residency status of the parties involved. These rules are administered by the Thailand Revenue Department, which sets and enforces the compliance requirements businesses and individuals must follow.
We advise Thai and international clients on tax compliance, tax structuring, and tax efficiency — helping businesses and individuals navigate Thailand’s tax framework with confidence.
Our Tax Services
Corporate Tax
As the tax lawyer Thailand companies rely on for corporate structuring, we advise on corporate income tax, withholding tax, VAT, and specific business tax for companies operating in Thailand — including BOI tax incentives and tax-efficient structuring for foreign-invested businesses.
Property & Transaction Tax
We provide tax structuring advice for property transactions, business acquisitions, and commercial arrangements — helping clients achieve compliance and efficiency under Thai law. This includes advising on transfer taxes, specific business tax on property sales, and stamp duty considerations that arise in commercial transactions.
Personal Income Tax & Residency
For individuals living and working in Thailand, tax residency status significantly affects personal income tax obligations. As a tax lawyer Thailand expatriates and business owners consult on residency matters, we advise on personal income tax planning, double taxation considerations, and compliance with Thai filing requirements.
Tax Compliance & Risk Management
Non-compliance with Thai tax law can result in significant penalties and business disruption. We help clients establish compliant tax practices from the outset, reducing the risk of disputes with tax authorities and ensuring accurate, timely filings across all applicable tax categories.
