Revenue Department Training Tax Deduction Multiplier Lift
200 to 250 percent multiplier for TPQI-credentialed programmes (effective Jan 2026)
The Revenue Department's January 2026 royal decree lifts the corporate training-tax-deduction multiplier from 200 percent to 250 percent for programmes aligned to a TPQI occupational standard. The lift represents a 25 to 35 percent gross-margin uplift on the employer-paid cohort and is the largest single financial lever behind the 2026 to 2027 expansion of employer academies. The mechanism is bookkeeping-clean: an employer that spends THB 100,000 on a TPQI-credentialed programme deducts THB 250,000 against taxable income, against THB 200,000 pre-decree. Combined with the BOI Section 8 reskill 3-year tax credit and the 32 to 48 percent effective subsidy at the stack level, the policy stack is the financial engine behind the 4x revenue ramp from 2024 to 2027.
