How Can I Ensure Transfer-Cost Split Is Clearly Written in the Contract?

Ask for a detailed, itemised closing statement before transfer. Clearly list each cost item (transfer fee, withholding tax, stamp duty, specific business tax, legal fees, agent commissions, registration/land-office fees, due diligence costs) and assign who pays each item in writing. Attach this schedule to the main contract and confirm whether any government incentives or temporary reductions apply, with dates. Have a Thai lawyer review the numbers and language to catch ambiguities. If changes occur, ensure amendments are in writing with signatures. Rely on written documentation rather than verbal understandings to prevent surprises at transfer.
