From quoted on request + 7% VAT â fixed quote before we start.
How long does it take?

How does the Thailand-Germany DTT actually reduce my tax?
We obtain the Certificate of Residence from the Revenue Department, then you file it with the Germany tax authority to credit the Thai tax already paid â up to 100% of the overlap.
Can this be done while I'm overseas?
Yes â sign a POA + courier documents via DHL. We file and return the receipts.
