Understanding Thai Customs
Although Thailand’s increasing trade liberalisation has resulted in lower customs duty rates, companies should not assume a less stringent customs regime. On the contrary, Thai Customs are becoming more sophisticated and have stepped up their efforts to ensure compliance and collect revenue.
The adoption of the paperless customs procedures (e-Import and e-Export), while serving to facilitate cross-border transactions, has also helped improve Customs' compliance review capability. However, the Government has developed more attractive duty saving facilities to draw foreign investment in various economic sectors.
To take advantage of the available opportunities and to manage risks, companies should first understand the differences among the various customs privileges and their corresponding requirements, in order to identify the optimal privilege that is suitable for your business. In addition, equipping yourselves with the knowledge and understanding of the latest trends in Customs' perspective of each technical area could help mitigate customs risks. Improving your competitiveness through customs planning should thus go hand in hand with adoption of the best practice in customs compliance and risk management.
