How this free tool helps
When a Thai business pays a supplier, it often has to withhold a percentage and remit it to the Revenue Department. Choose the payment type and whether your supplier is a company or an individual, and this works out the withholding, the net you actually pay, and which PND form the filing goes on.
Withholding sits on the supplier side of the ledger; MinimalPOS covers the revenue side — sales, VAT, service charge, payments and receipts by shift. Together they are the two halves of what your bookkeeper needs each month.

PND 3 is for withholding on payments to individuals and other non-juristic persons. PND 53 is for payments to companies, partnerships and other juristic entities. The rate is generally driven by the type of payment; the form is driven by who you paid.
Services and professional fees are generally 3%, rent 5%, advertising 2%, and transport or logistics 1%. Rates vary by the exact nature of the payment and by recipient, so confirm anything unusual with your accountant.

Usually yes, at least on rent. A venue paying rent to a landlord, fees to a designer or an agency, or a logistics company for deliveries will typically be withholding on those payments and filing monthly.
