Monthly Payroll Support for Companies in Thailand
Payroll outsourcing can help Thai companies, foreign-owned businesses and Thai subsidiaries that prefer external support with monthly payroll calculations. We also work with businesses managed by overseas teams.
WMC can agree the information required, cut-off dates, review process and reporting format before recurring payroll work begins.
For companies employing personnel in Thailand
The payroll scope depends on the employee structure, pay components, required reports, filing responsibilities and information available each month.

Monthly Payroll Administration
WMC can organize the monthly payroll information received from the company and prepare calculations or summaries within the agreed scope. The company remains responsible for providing complete and accurate employee and pay information by the agreed cut-off date.
- Salaries and wages
- Overtime, allowances, bonuses and commissions
- Employee deductions
- Payroll summaries and payslip preparation where agreed
- Monthly payroll reports for management
Clear monthly cut-off
A workable payroll process depends on agreed cut-off dates and timely information about new employees, leavers, leave, pay changes and other relevant adjustments.
Employee Tax and Social Security Coordination
Payroll outsourcing services may include employee withholding tax calculations and Social Security contribution calculations based on the employee and payroll information provided. WMC can coordinate payroll information with the company’s applicable tax compliance and tax filing work where that responsibility is included.
Tax and Social Security requirements depend on your employees, pay structure, registrations and the applicable rules. If payroll information is incomplete, we ask for clarification before using it.
Payroll Information for Accounting and Management
Payroll feeds into your accounting records and management reports. Where agreed, we prepare the information and reports needed by your accounting team and local or overseas management.
For broader monthly accounting support, see outsourced accounting services in Thailand. Payroll administration and outsourced accounting are related services, but the responsibilities should be defined separately.
Reports for overseas management
WMC can discuss payroll reports for international management teams where the required format and reporting scope are agreed.
Payroll for Foreign-Owned Companies
Foreign-owned companies and Thai subsidiaries may need payroll information prepared for local administration and reviewed by directors or finance teams outside Thailand. WMC can discuss the monthly information flow for those businesses.
For wider local accounting, tax and corporate support, see the accounting and reporting page.
