Abstract

Under the Thai Revenue Code, other relevant laws and regulations, cross-border leasing business can gain the tax benefits only in the form of tax depreciation. This tax depreciation is unable to attract and facilitate the export of cross-border leasing transaction. Thailand’s corporate income taxation on cross-border leasing still does not provide the adequate provision for granting a tax incentive to the export of cross-border leasing to the lessee in ASEAN member countries as well as measures to control a use of corporate income tax incentive accurately.


            Therefore, this article presents the study of the corporate income taxation on cross-border leasing to illustrate in two issues: 1) tax incentive for the export of cross-border leasing to the lessee in ASEAN member countries; and 2) measures to control the use of such tax incentive under Thai laws.
