{"_editor_airtable_record_id":"recOZ0EYJ0mJCddFT","ai_json_enabled":true,"answer":"The contract should spell out each item of transfer costs (transfer fee, withholding tax, stamp duty or specific business tax) and who pays each one, with amounts or a source for the calculation. It should include an itemised closing statement or schedule that matches title documents and any government incentives or temporary reductions. Expect clear references to agency commissions, registration or land-office fees, and any due-diligence or legal costs tied to the transaction. Avoid vague language; look for written estimates for each item and the basis for calculations (rates, thresholds, exemptions). Have a Thai-qualified lawyer review the contract to ensure the allocation matches the deal, and ensure the same details appear in the final closing documents. Being explicit helps prevent unexpected costs at transfer.","answer_source":"openai_conversational_breadcrumb","category":"Transfer Fees & Taxes","category_slug":"transfer-fees-and-taxes","confidence":"grounded_in_approved_property_guide_context","created_at":"2026-08-29T19:22:42+00:00","daily_publish_cap":3,"date_published":"2026-08-29","display_date":"2026-08-29","drip_batch":"2026-08-30","drip_status":"daily_auto_published","freshness_warning":"Property availability, prices, ownership rules, taxes, fees and legal requirements can change.
