Land tax

Land tax

Once a year, the tax officer comes personally with a stack of papers to collect the assessment. This is the land tax. Not even a hundred baht in total.

After an hour things were neatly arranged again and the employee went to the next customer satisfied. It was his lucky day because he had already found us at home on the first visit. That should be easier, you would say.

And sometimes it is indeed more convenient. For example, our kWh meter is installed on our land and the meter reader comes by once a month to read the reading from a distance of about five meters; he then makes a printout and puts it in our mailbox. Two weeks later, the amount will be automatically debited.

That also works.

    They also know land tax here. For a piece of land smaller than 1/2 ha you pay LAK 750.000 (about 75 euros) and above that 1.500.000 (about 150 euros) costs per year and bring it to the office yourself.

    Really….I don't think I've ever paid…or is that only for land with a house on it? I've never come across an account like this... well, fine...

      Never is how long? If you have not paid land tax for more than 20 years, the property right expires, even for a chanoot.

        Dear Ger,
        To whom does the right expire afterwards?

          What do you think yourself, of whom are large areas, national parks, of whom have many
          farmland and other plots on loan: well that's the government. Likewise, if there are no heirs, it reverts to the government.

          tax?

          Under section 37 of the Land and Building Tax Act, tax is collected from the following types of land or buildings used for the following purposes:

          Agricultural purposes, including rice farming, crop farming, plantation, livestock farming, aquatic animal farming.
          residential purposes
          Other purposes excluding agricultural and residential purposes
          Left empty or unused'

          Can't really find it either.
          Calculator comes in handy here.

      I thought so too; well, that's fine as far as I can hear or see.
      Until at one point I had to pay the first time, and then an invoice was immediately made for all those years that I had lived here and had not paid. I wish you a lot of fun with it.
      My house is in the name of a Thai (under 100 stalangwa land) and he doesn't have to pay tax under 100 stalangwa, but above that is a ridiculous minimum amount.

      Now comes the kloe that Thai has a rental contract with me, then he pays a tax amount of 100 Baht under 5.000,00 stalangwa per year, so 15 years counted nicely. would you like to pay 75.000,00? And greetings from MAX

    Paying land tax has been taking place with us for many years in the office of the Tessabaan.
    We receive a letter by post at the beginning of the new year in January stating that we have to pay again for the plots before the end of the month and how much.
    It is also announced through the sound system of the village.
    There is also the possibility to pay on a certain morning in the local monastery.
    Employees of the Tessabaan are present there and this is always accompanied by the free vaccination of our dogs against Rabbis.
    The size of the amount of the assessment cannot be compared with what you have to pay in the low countries.
    The Tessabaan employees can see in the computer system which chanots are the owner and the size of the plot in question.
    If you have a channot of less than a certain size, it is even free.

    Jan Beute.
