TRANSFER FEE ESTIMATOR
Four separate government charges apply to a Thai property transfer. The estimator computes each one from the value, seller type and holding period.
Enter the appraised value
Type the Land Department appraised value or the sale price — taxes are levied on whichever is higher.
Pick the seller and holding period
Individual vs company changes the withholding tax method; years owned decides specific business tax vs stamp duty.
See every charge
We break out the 2% transfer fee, specific business tax or stamp duty, and the seller's withholding tax.
Split buyer and seller
The total is divided into the buyer's and seller's typical shares so both sides know their cash at closing.
The Land Department's assessed value, or the sale price — taxes are charged on whichever is higher.
Withholding tax is a flat 1% for companies; for individuals it's a progressive calculation based on years owned.
Selling within 5 years triggers the 3.3% specific business tax instead of the 0.5% stamp duty.
If the seller had their name in the house registration book for at least a year, specific business tax is waived even within 5 years.

By convention the 2% transfer fee is split 50/50, while specific business tax, stamp duty and withholding tax are the seller's liability. Who pays what is ultimately negotiable in the sale contract.
