brianwl Posted June 10, 2007 Share Posted June 10, 2007 I have heard that when one buys electronics from a store in Thailand the purchaser must pay a duty on the item being purchased. The items I am concerned with are TV's, stereos, and digital cameras. If there is a duty to be paid do locals pay it or just foreigners? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to the existing law everyone has to pai 7% VAT, Thai's and Foreigners! But there is a way to claim the VAT back if you "export" the purchased goods! Many shops having the required forms available. Anyway it's a bargain as well to pay or nopt to pay VAT! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
