TAX for Buy and Sale in Thailand

Under the Condominium Act 1991, non-resident foreigners who purchase condominium units must bring in the funds to pay for the unit from overseas. That means that the entire payment must be transferred into the country as “foreign currency”. The beneficiary bank will issue a “Foreign Exchange Transaction” certificate which should be presented to the Land Department when registering the ownership of the condominium. For each transfer, banks will only provide a “Foreign Exchange Transaction” certificate for amounts of over US$ 50,000. For amounts of less than this, the bank will issue a credit note, which may be presented, with the confirmation letter from the bank, to the Land Office in order to register the condominium.
