Tax and legal
Deloitte’s Tax & legal services team is a specialist group of over 50 tax practitioners and legal professionals.
Our Thai and expatriate tax professionals provide specialized consulting advice to local and international clients in all areas of Thailand tax, and also offer advice in both international tax and expatriate taxation.
Tax services
From our comprehensive knowledge of the Thai tax regime and international tax laws, we can offer a full range of tax consulting and compliance services in the areas of:
- Strategic tax planning
- Financing structures
- Transfer pricing
- Indirect tax (e.g. import duty, excise tax, value added tax, specific business tax, etc.)
- Tax compliance (e.g. corporate, individual, etc.)
- Expatriate personal income tax
- Liaison with the revenue department
Our group specialises in advising on tax laws in Thailand in view of the increasingly complex nature of tax developments and implementation. Where appropriate, the tax team coordinates closely with other Deloitte firms in the Asia region and around the world to ensure that the full consequences and tax savings opportunities of the tax advice from a local, regional and international perspective are considered. In many cases, it is critical to obtain an understanding of the overall effects of a tax structure, as opposed to just local related matters.
Legal services
Our legal professionals provide a full range of corporate and commercial legal services relevant to establishing and conducting business in Thailand, from analyzing a client’s business objectives so as to determine the most appropriate structures, to ongoing support for day-to-day operations.
Legal services include:
- Investment applications and business licensing
- Commercial legal advice and documentation
- Mergers and acquisitions
- Legal due diligence
- Company secretarial services
- Expatriate visa and work permit applications
- Labour law advice
In addition our lawyers can liaise with their colleagues in other jurisdictions to provide legal solutions for companies seeking to do business outside Thailand. Our capacity to work closely with our colleagues from other disciplines within the same firm gives us a significant advantage from our client’s point of view, over traditional legal service providers.
