The BOI and the Ministry of Finance offer maximum incentives to EcoCar manufacturers. Under the new incentives program, the BOI offers projects with a minimum investment value of 5 billion baht an 8-year corporate income tax holiday, regardless of location, as well as duty-free importation of machinery.
The Ministry of Finance allows Eco-Car manufacturers to pay a reduced excise tax of 17% on cars with engines not more than 1,300 cc for petrol-powered cars and 1,400 cc for diesel-powered cars.
Among the BOI’s requirements on Eco-Cars, such vehicles need a fuel economy of at least 20 kilometers per liter, must meet the Euro 4 emission standard, and should have UNECE 94 and 95 safety levels.

The Thailand Automotive Cluster consists of assemblers, components and module makers, parts suppliers, associations, government, educational and technical institutions with support in terms of distribution, finance, testing, specialized consultants
and services.
A major issue facing the cluster is the challenges of Thai parts companies to compete with international firms in terms of technology and quality standards.
Some of the issues faced have been solved with the support of foreign automotive companies in Thailand. For example, Toyota has engaged many local suppliers and helped them move upwards in value chain.
In the recent years also European MNCs have started outsourcing to Thai Automotive parts suppliers and thereby improving the manufacturing standards.

The automotive industry is clustered around industrial estates in Bangkok and the surrounding provinces, especially Samut Prakan, Chachoengsao, Chonburi and Rayong.
Thailand is divided into three industrial estate zones with Bangkok as a center. Each industrial estate zone offers different trading and tax rivileges for manufacturers located in these estates.
The industrial estates in Zones 1 and 2 are mostly designed to serve the automotive industry with easy-to-access infrastructure, such as local roads, highways, railways and nearby ports.
