Frequently asked questions
How much income tax do I pay in Thailand?
Thailand has a progressive income tax system with 8 brackets ranging from 0% to 35%. Income up to THB 150,000 is tax-exempt, while income above THB 5,000,000 is taxed at the highest rate of 35%. You'll also receive a personal allowance of THB 60,000 that reduces your taxable income.
What is the employment income deduction in Thailand?
Employees in Thailand can deduct 50% of their employment income, capped at a maximum of THB 100,000 per year. This deduction is applied before calculating your income tax, which significantly reduces your taxable income if you earn a higher salary.
Do I have to pay social security contributions in Thailand?
Yes, employees must contribute 5% of their gross income to the Social Security Fund, with a maximum annual contribution of THB 9,000 per month (capped at THB 9,000 per year). The good news is that these contributions are tax-deductible, meaning they reduce your taxable income.
What is my take-home pay after taxes and deductions in Thailand?
Your take-home pay is calculated by subtracting income tax and social security contributions from your gross salary. The calculator on this page accounts for the 50% employment expense deduction, the THB 60,000 personal allowance, and the 5% social security contribution to give you an accurate estimate of what you'll actually receive.
Are there regional or state income taxes in Thailand?
No, Thailand does not have subnational income taxes, so your tax liability is the same regardless of which province you live or work in. You only need to consider the national income tax brackets and contributions when calculating your total tax burden.
