e-Payment requirement for tax returns

Previously, when taxpayers filed tax returns electronically through the Revenue Department website, they could choose to make the tax payment at any Area Revenue Department Office under a previous Revenue Department notification. However, Notification No. 17 cancels that previous notification.
Under Notification No. 17, taxpayers who file tax returns through the website (www.rd.go.th) or the application of the Revenue Department (RD Smart Tax) or through the Ministry of Finance website (https://etax.mof.go.th) under the Tax Single Sign-On system must make the tax payment electronically only. This applies to tax returns filed from 1 July 2020 onwards.
An exception will be made for taxpayers who make tax payments in instalments and have already made instalments at an Area Revenue Department Office before 1 July 2020. Such taxpayers can still make the remaining instalments at the Area Revenue Department Office.
