The progressive tax on vacant land creates a financial disincentive for holding undeveloped land, potentially increasing supply and lowering land prices. The mechanism is regulatory (tax enforcement) and affects the real estate sector in Thailand, particularly foreign-owned or nominee-held properties. Impact is country-specific (Thailand).
