Recipient Type 
Recipient Type
Definition
A system object that allows you to classify vendors (and customers) according to what sort of company they are for the purposes of withholding tax reporting.
Use
When you come to file withholding tax returns, the Revenue Department requires you to fill out different forms for different types of vendors (see
Generic Withholding Tax Reporting). For example, you fill out form Phaw Ngaw Daw 54 for all tax that you have withheld on payments to foreigners. When you use the SAP System to prepare the returns, it is the recipient type which tells the SAP System which of the forms to use.Customizing
Customize the recipient types in Customizing for Financial Accounting (FI), by choosing Financial Accounting Global Settings ® Withholding Tax ® Extended Withholding Tax ® Basic Settings ® Check Recipient Types.
Country Version Thailand comes with all four recipient types already configured, as follows:

Assign each of your customers a recipient type. On the Withholding Tax tab, enter the recipient type in the W/Tax Number field. This field is used for this purpose in Country Version Thailand.

When you come to prepare your withholding tax returns, the system automatically creates different returns for each of the recipient types (again, see
Generic Withholding Tax Reporting).
