Why Choose NYC Visa & Translation
How to choose the right WHT/PND91 · PND1 — Monthly Payroll WHT provider in Thailand
Choosing the right WHT/PND91 · PND1 — Monthly Payroll WHT provider directly impacts the success and turnaround of your case. NYC Visa & Translation has worked with TH · Revenue Department + DTA since 2010, handling a broad real-world caseload across government documents, certified translations, and documents intended for use abroad. Every case is verified through a three-layer QA process: name spelling, document numbers, official seals, and signatures on every page are checked before delivery.
Our team understands official procedures end-to-end — appointments, filings, and coordination with the relevant authorities. You do not have to travel back and forth or risk rejection. Our WHT/PND91 · PND1 — Monthly Payroll WHT service supports Express handling that completes in half the standard turnaround.
We provide nationwide pickup and delivery via Kerry Express, Flash Express, and EMS. Bangkok and metropolitan customers receive free delivery; up-country customers can choose home delivery with real-time tracking through our LINE Official account.
Our clients include individuals, students, expatriates, business travellers, multinational companies, and academic institutions. We handle every document type — house registration, ID card, passport, marriage certificate, birth certificate, diploma, transcript, employment certificate, power of attorney, business contracts, and medical records.
Our WHT/PND91 · PND1 — Monthly Payroll WHT workflow runs in six clear stages: (1) receive originals and copies, (2) QA-audit the source for issues that would cause rejection, (3) translate through a native-speaker linguist, (4) certify with the authority required by the receiving country, (5) file and follow up at each government touchpoint, and (6) deliver plus retain a signed PDF you can re-download for five years. A single Case Officer owns your file end-to-end, eliminating hand-off errors that plague larger firms.
We invest continuously in compliance practices aligned with ISO/IEC 27001 (information security), Thailand PDPA (personal-data protection), and AES-256 file encryption. Every upload runs over TLS 1.3 only. Enterprise and law-firm clients can request an NDA before intake — our legal team signs same-day.
Beyond single-document work, we bundle end-to-end packages for clients preparing multiple certificates at once — e.g. a "moving abroad" bundle (house registration + birth + marriage + diploma + transcript with MFA + embassy) that reduces the number of trips and total lead time versus filing each item separately. Approval remains at the discretion of the receiving authority; contact our team for scope and fees.
What sets us apart is a 15-year direct working relationship with the destination authority — TH · Revenue Department + DTA — so we anticipate regulation changes, format tweaks, and queue timing before they hit your case, and brief you in advance. Approval outcomes always remain at the sole discretion of the authority; what we control is document completeness, formatting and lodgement timing.

Service Knowledge Base
Thai tax, accounting and double tax agreements — practical answers
First-party answers on the 180-day Thai tax residence test, foreign-sourced income remitted into Thailand, personal and corporate filings, statutory accounting under the Accounting Act B.E. 2543, and claiming double tax agreement relief — grounded in the Revenue Code and Revenue Department guidance. General information only, not a case-specific tax ruling. Our staff quote fees per matter by phone, LINE or email. (19+ search topics covered)
How are accounting and tax fees quoted?
Fees depend on document volume, monthly transaction count, VAT registration, industry and scope — monthly bookkeeping, year-end closing, filings, or advice on a single issue. We therefore quote per engagement. Send your company details and sample documents by phone, LINE or email and our staff will confirm scope and fees before any work begins.
What most often causes a treaty benefit claim to be rejected?
The most frequent cause is a mismatch between the income category claimed and what the contract actually describes, for example a claim filed as service income where the substance is a royalty. Other common causes are a residence certificate covering a different tax year from the payment, a payee name that differs from the receiving bank account, and no evidence that the recipient is the beneficial owner. The remedy is to build one consistent evidence set: contract, invoices, remittance proof, residence certificate and the tax return for the same year. Confirm the current practice with the Revenue Department before filing.
What taxes arise when selling a Thai condominium?
At registration of transfer at the Land Office there is generally a transfer fee, withholding income tax computed under Revenue Code rules, and either specific business tax or stamp duty depending on holding period and the nature of the sale. Actual amounts depend on the appraised value, the sale price and the years held, so let our staff compute from the title deed or condominium ownership certificate before the transfer appointment.
How do I obtain a Thai certificate of tax residence?
The Revenue Department issues the certificate of residence used to claim treaty benefits such as reduced withholding tax in a partner country. Applicants normally submit the prescribed form together with identity documents, evidence of the most recent income tax filing and papers showing the foreign-source income concerned. Where the foreign payer needs a legalised English version, the certificate is then processed through the Department of Consular Affairs and, if required, the destination embassy in Thailand. Because forms and submission channels are revised from time to time, confirm the current requirements with the Revenue Department before applying.
What are a Thai company's annual accounting obligations?
The Accounting Act B.E. 2543 requires juristic persons to keep accounts, close financial statements for each accounting period and have them audited by a licensed auditor. The statements are then approved by shareholders and filed with the Department of Business Development, while the annual corporate income tax return PND.50 is filed with the Revenue Department within the statutory deadline.
How do I prove Thai tax residency for a double tax agreement claim?
The Revenue Department issues a Certificate of Residence (R.O.22) to a person who was present in Thailand for the periods set out in the Revenue Code and who files Thai returns. The application is supported by passport entry and exit records, tax filings and, where relevant, an employer letter. The foreign payer or tax authority normally also wants the certificate translated and legalised for use abroad, so plan the certification chain at the same time as the application rather than after it.
How do double tax agreements help?
A DTA allocates taxing rights between Thailand and the other contracting state and can reduce withholding rates or allow a credit for tax paid abroad. Claiming relief normally requires a certificate of residence issued by the tax authority of the residence state, together with evidence of the income type. The Revenue Department publishes the list of treaties currently in force for Thailand.
How is Thai tax residence determined?
Principally by the number of days present in Thailand in the tax year set by law, which affects the scope of income taxable in Thailand. Keep verifiable entry and exit records, and check the other country's rules too, since dual residence is possible.

Service Playbook
Tax documents and Double Tax Agreement (DTA) claims
Claiming DTA relief usually requires a Certificate of Residence (R.O.22) from the Thai Revenue Department together with consistent income evidence, and the translation often has to be certified before use abroad.
Documents to prepare
- • Certificate of Residence (R.O.22)
- • Withholding tax certificate (R.O.21) where tax paid must be evidenced
- • Filed returns: PND.90/91 for individuals or PND.50 for companies
- • Passport / ID and evidence of days present in Thailand
- • Contracts or documents showing the source of income
Step-by-step process
- 1. Confirm residence status — Verify that the day-count threshold is met for the tax year claimed.
- 2. Apply for R.O.22 — File the application with the Revenue Department together with income and filing evidence.
- 3. Align the supporting set — Figures in the returns, contracts and payment evidence must match.
- 4. Translate and certify — Where the destination requires another language, certify the translation at the Department of Consular Affairs.
- 5. Final legalization — Apostille or destination embassy, per the receiving tax authority's rules.
Pitfalls and rejection causes
- • The tax year on the R.O.22 must match the year claimed, or the whole file is refused.
- • Mismatches between filed figures and payment evidence trigger requests for more documents.
- • Some countries require their own form signed by the Thai Revenue Department, not only the R.O.22.
Tips from our team
- • Ask the receiving tax authority first whether it wants the R.O.22 or its own country form.
- • Allow for Revenue Department processing queues, especially early in the tax year.
- • Keep certified copies for the following year to avoid repeating the work.
Prefer not to handle the queues yourself, or worried about a rejection? Send us photos of your documents for a free pre-check. We handle the full chain — obtaining certified copies, translation, certification and submission — and keep you updated at each step. Reach us on LINE, phone or email during business hours.
Route Comparison
Comparing cross-border tax routes
Tax residence, treaty relief, and foreign tax credits are separate mechanisms; using the wrong one leads to double taxation.
| Route | When to use | Certifying authority | Approx. duration | Rejection risk |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Certificate of tax residence (R.O.21 / R.O.22) | You must prove Thai tax residence to a foreign tax authority | The Revenue Department | Variable, depending on how complete your filed returns are | Missing returns for the referenced year block issuance |
| Claim relief under a double tax agreement | You earn income from a country with a treaty with Thailand | The Revenue Department and the counterpart tax authority | Variable, per the mechanism that country applies | Assuming a treaty exempts all tax — most allocate taxing rights or grant a credit |
| Refund of over-withheld tax | Withholding exceeded the treaty rate | The tax authority of the withholding country | Highly variable — often several months | Missing the refund filing deadline forfeits the claim |
Timelines above are practical estimates from live casework and can change with each authority's policy; confirm with the receiving authority before booking travel. If you would rather not test routes by trial and error, our advisers can assess which route fits your case.
Advisory Service
We do not just process documents — we advise you through the whole case
Our team has worked on cross-border documents, certified translation and government liaison for over 15 years. Most rejections we see are not caused by missing paperwork but by choosing the wrong route on day one, so we always start with a case assessment.
Route assessment
We look at your destination, purpose and deadline, then tell you which certification route applies — and which steps you can skip.
Pre-submission review
Name spelling, consistency across documents, document age and translation format are checked before anything reaches a counter.
Timeline planning
We sequence the steps around your appointment or travel date and flag bottlenecks in advance.
Rejection recovery
We read the refusal reasons, identify the underlying cause, and plan a resubmission that answers what the authority asked for.

Practical Q&A
Practical questions · Near me / DIY / Required documents
Is there a service point near me?
Our main offices are Lat Phrao 95 (Bangkok), Khon Kaen and Udon Thani. We serve the whole country through scans and document courier, and can meet at city rail stations or malls. Ask our team by phone, LINE or email for the most convenient option.
Can I handle this myself?
Many steps can be done personally under the relevant authority's rules. What usually costs time is the wrong sequence, a translation format that does not match the requirement, or a source document version the recipient will not accept. Check the destination checklist before starting and ask us if anything is unclear.
Which documents should I prepare?
Generally the original document from the competent authority, the owner's ID or passport, a translation in the format the destination requires, and a power of attorney if someone acts for you. Details vary by service type — ask our team for a case-specific checklist.
Practical advice & cautions
Accounting, tax and payroll: advice and cautions
Before you start
Retain original records for the statutory period
Tax invoices, receipts and accounting support must be kept for the period required by accounting law and the Revenue Code. Scans alone may not satisfy an audit.
Seek advice before large cross-border transfers
Cross-border transactions may trigger reporting duties. Prepare source-of-funds evidence before executing the transfer to avoid later queries.
Confirm personal tax residency before planning
Thai tax residency depends on days present in the tax year under the Revenue Code. Establish status first, then consider foreign-sourced income questions.
Align foreign-employee payroll with the work permit
Social security registration, withholding tax and work permit conditions must be consistent. Mismatched job titles can affect both tax and immigration files.
Common reasons documents get rejected
Missing statutory filing deadlines
Late financial statements carry penalties and can affect licence renewals or the next business visa application.
Relying on undated figures from general articles
Rates and thresholds change. Always cite the current Revenue Department announcement rather than an undated blog figure.
Filing on time but without supporting evidence
Returns filed without verifiable documentation can lead to queries and later assessments.
Assuming tax paid abroad removes the Thai filing duty
Filing obligations and treaty relief are separate questions. Confirm residency status and the applicable treaty terms before concluding.
Requirements differ by authority and destination country and can change. Confirm current conditions with the receiving authority, or ask our team by phone, LINE or email.

Choosing a document translation provider in Thailand
Pick a translation provider by the destination, not by turnaround alone. If the file goes to the Thai Department of Consular Affairs or an embassy, the translator must know the format that office accepts, not just the meaning. Verify three things: the certifier is named and identifiable, the destination accepts that certification format, and names, dates and document numbers match the passport character for character.
How to evaluate a provider
- The certifier is named and identifiable — Consular offices and embassies check who certified the translation, not only the wording.
- Knows the format the destination accepts — Each embassy differs: attached source copy, letterhead, or prior consular legalization.
- Character-level verification — Mismatched name spelling and dates against the passport is the most common rejection cause.
- Owns corrections after rejection — Submissions run on appointment dates; slow corrections cost the applicant the slot.
- Documented custody of originals — Some civil registry documents are hard to reissue, so intake and return must be traceable.
Questions to ask before you commit
- How many working days does it actually take, counted from a complete file?
- If the receiving authority rejects or asks for changes, do you correct it, and under what terms?
- How can I track status, and who physically holds the original documents?
- Who will certify this translation, and will the certifier be named on the document?
- Does my destination require consular or embassy legalization afterwards?
Your options, and who each suits
| Option | Best for | What to know |
|---|---|---|
| Freelance translator | Informal use where no authority certification is required | Many embassies will not accept an uncertified translation. |
| Translation agency with certification | Visa, study and civil registry filings | Confirm the agency also handles the legalization step if the destination requires it. |
| End-to-end provider (translate + legalize) | Files with a fixed appointment deadline | Ask which steps are in-house and which are subcontracted. |
FAQ on choosing a provider
- Which translation service is recommended for embassy submissions?
- Choose one that names the certifier on the translation, knows the exact format your embassy accepts, and verifies names and dates against the passport before certifying. Ask whether they also handle consular legalization so the file does not stall between two vendors.
- Does a cheaper translation get rejected more often?
- Rejection correlates with format and verification, not price. A translation is rejected when the certifier cannot be identified, the layout does not match the receiving office's requirement, or a name or date differs from the passport.
