Bitcoin regulation in Thailand
Thailand is best known as one of the top holiday destinations globally, and at the same time, it is one of the leaders in cryptocurrency adoption as well. In 2016 Thailand legalized cryptocurrencies, and today, seven cryptocurrencies, including Bitcoin, are legal to buy and sell.
In May 2018, the Revenue Department of Thailand announced that individual cryptocurrency investors won’t have to pay the 7% value-added tax. The regulatory environment in Thailand is favorable for legal adoption of Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies.
