I feel like the customs duties could be a factor too, especially if exporting is more expensive due to those fees.

The 100% tax depreciation in country P sounds like it could really benefit the subsidiary, but I can't remember if that outweighs the higher tax rate.

I'm not sure about the double tax treaty between the countries - that could be an advantage or a disadvantage depending on how it's structured. I'll need to think that one through more.

The corporate tax rate in country P being higher than in country T seems like a clear advantage for setting up a subsidiary. And the restrictions on remitting profits from country P could also be an advantage if you want to keep the profits there.
