Collect tax in Thailand

In Thailand, Stripe only supports collecting VAT for digital services. In Stripe, these are referred to as “digital products.” To collect this tax on Stripe, you must be a remote seller without a physical presence in the country.

When to register for tax collection

See Thresholds to get insights about your potential tax registration obligations in Thailand. Stripe also notifies you with email and Dashboard alerts when you need to register to collect tax. Learn more about how the monitoring tool works.

Remote sellers supplying digital goods and services to Thai consumers are required to register for VAT purposes if their taxable sales of digital goods and services exceed THB 1.8 million. The threshold period is an accounting period (for corporations) or a calendar year (for individuals). Remote sellers are required to register for VAT within 30 days from the day they have satisfied the registration threshold. As accounting periods vary per company, Stripe uses a calendar year as the threshold period.

Threshold: THB 1.8 million

Time frame: Calendar year

Included transactions: Business-to-consumer (B2C) sales of digital goods and services
