Croatian and Thai officials have discussed strengthening economic and financial cooperation, including the continuation of negotiations on an income tax treaty that would establish the countries’ first bilateral tax agreement.

Croatian and Thai officials met on 4 September 2026 to discuss strengthening bilateral relations, including the continuation of negotiations on an income tax treaty, according to a release from Croatia’s Ministry of Finance.

Discussions also focused on expanding trade and investment in areas including defence, logistics, shipbuilding, IT, research and development, and green technologies. They further discussed cooperation on sustainable finance and private investment ahead of Croatia’s participation in the World Bank and IMF Annual Meetings in Bangkok in October.

Any resulting income tax treaty between the two countries would need to be finalised, signed, and ratified before entering into force.
