What Should a Transfer-Fee Split Clause Look Like in the Signed Contract?

The clause should spell out who pays each transfer-related item and when payment is due. Include line-by-line items such as transfer fee, withholding tax, stamp duty or specific business tax (as applicable), and any agency or legal costs. State the responsible party (buyer, seller, or shared) and set clear payment timing, typically at closing or as specified in the contract. Because rates can change, attach written estimates from the official sources or advisers and show the calculation method. Note any government incentives or temporary reductions that may apply to your deal. Have a qualified Thai lawyer review the clause to ensure it matches the ownership structure and contract language, and ensure the closing statement reflects the agreed allocations to avoid surprises at transfer.
