TPI Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 Well, gosh! Why did they even bother to bring this to our attention, nobody has been 'caught', nobody has or is going to be punished......? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert2006 Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 With a minimum of 300% tax on a luxury car not made in Thailand what do they expect. That's the biggest robbery I see here, excessive import tax. It’s the same old government scam, a con characteristic of Thailand; these people in government are not stupid; they know very well they created the problem with their tax rate. They also know that people would not cheat and there tax revenues would increase if they lowered the rate. This law was created to enable the connected to accept bribes. Tax revenue is not concentrated it goes into a general fund, bribes and payoffs can be concentrated to specific individuals in government, these schemes are so transparent. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khaowong1 Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 Could always lower the tax to eliminate black market all together, might even make money money in tax by selling more luxury cars at decent prices Your living in La-La land Konying, that's not the Thai way..

Johpa Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 They finally figured out that the cars are being stolen in Malaysia. Insurance claimed and then being shipped or driven to Thailand and under the table registration docs issued. The car is useless without a book clean your own backyard first. It's been going on since forever. Smuggling has long provided the financing for the south to be a tad over represented in the national politics of the Kingdom.

northernjohn Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 this has been going on for years Well this is shaping up to be another thread with nonsense posts. Yes it has been going on for ever. But publishing it for the whole world to see is a new wrinkle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tx22cb Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 Whoa there. You do realise that the Richest of the Rich, the Elite of the Elite, actually like (and even prefer to have) the 300%/600% luxury car taxes? a) 20 million Baht is nothing to them, but worse ... It would be anathema for them to see mere Mercedes and Porsche owners buying 500 bhp cars and thereby diluting their elite circle. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
