ozpharlap Posted February 8, 2010 Report Share Posted February 8, 2010 My understanding is that this is quite negotiable, usually both parties paying 50% each, but yes, a steep increase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThaiHome Posted February 9, 2010 Report Share Posted February 9, 2010 The 0.01% rate was a temporary one year tax break put in place in March 2008 as part of the economic stimulus. It was extended to 2010 last year. It is still uncertain if the government is going to extend it again when it expires on March 28th. They may not, as all signs indicate Thailand is in full recovery at this point, but cutting taxes is always good politics. The normal rate has been 2% for years.
