Successful BOI promotion of Manufacturing of Special Polymer Products in September 2022 H&P BOI lawyers in Thailand

H&P is glad to announce the success of our latest BOI application in September 2022. This application was made by our H&P Bangkok Lawyers to obtain BOI promotion in the business of Basic and Supporting Industries regarding to Manufacturing of Special Polymer Products which fall in the category 6.5.1.

Our client obtained Tax incentives under A2 category which means an exemption of the Corporate Income Tax for 8 years. The application was carefully prepared by our Thai Corporate Lawyers working closely with our client during several months.

The term of Special Polymer is specified by Petroleum Institute of Thailand (PIT). Thailand BOI cooperated with the relevant institutions to have an analysis of the products and to reach and issue a final resolution whether or not the product complied to the condition of the Special Polymer Product.

Now the resolution of the PIT is final. The products which are not considered as a Special Polymer Products shall not receive the benefit and privilege based on A2 category. However, the products may be fall into other category of the promotion such as 6.1 Manufacturing of Chemical Production which falls into the category A4 in business type 6.1
