Tax Guidance for Selling Obsolete Inventory Below Market Value in Thailand: Key Rules and Documentation

  • VAT is generally calculated based on the actual selling price of goods, even if sold below market value, provided there are reasonable commercial grounds and proper documentation.
  • If the Revenue Department determines the sale price is unreasonably low without justification, it may reassess VAT based on the market value.
  • No prior approval from the Revenue Department is required to sell obsolete or discounted goods below market price, but supporting documentation is essential to justify the lower price for VAT purposes.
  • Proper records (e.g., evidence of obsolescence, internal approvals, promotional materials) help minimize the risk of VAT reassessment.
