Personal Tax on condo sale

[MRToMRT]

I have been looking at the tax implications on selling of my condo which I now understand quite well but one thing eludes me, if anyone can clarify?

 

Theres a personal tax liability on the seller which is based on half the sales price and half the land offices's assessment price.

 

Is that tax paid at the land office by the seller when the exchange of deeds is done, or do you settle as part of your year end tax return?

I am not sure but many years ago when me the wife sold ours it was based as a percentage of the property price. If you ask at the Land Office they they can tell you.

There are the transfer fees - half paid by the seller and half paid by the buyer...these are paid to the land office at transfer

 

Sellers witholding tax is paid by the seller and is evaluated by the sellers marginal tax rate on his annual return. This is paid to the tax office.

So this withhodling tax, where and when will I be expected to pay it? Thats the bit I am not sure about. I am retired here on an O-A and dont have a Thai tax ID.

Will I need to pay it before I can send the money back home or can I "walk away"?
