Understanding Thailand Property Transfer Fees

Transfer Fee

2% of the Land Department's appraised value. By convention this is usually split 50/50 between buyer and seller, though it is negotiable.

Specific Business Tax (SBT)

3.3% (including municipal tax) applies when the property has been owned for less than 5 years, or if it has not been the seller's registered principal residence. SBT and Stamp Duty are mutually exclusive.

Stamp Duty

0.5% of the sale price or appraised value (whichever is higher). Only applies when SBT does not — i.e. the property has been owned for 5+ years AND is the seller's registered primary residence.

Withholding Tax

For companies: 1% of sale price or appraised value. For individuals: calculated progressively using Thai income tax rates applied to the appraised value divided by years of ownership. Paid by the seller.
