Opening a company in Thailand 

Foreign investors interested in the business environment in Thailand can receive legal advice and guidance from our team of expert Thai lawyers, with the guarantee of a successful start-up at advantageous prices. Our lawyers will offer you support through all the necessary procedures for the incorporation of a company; you will need to provide several documents for the registration of a Thai company, open a bank account for your business, set up a business address, receive permits from local authorities and comply with the local tax regulations

In order to understand how the company incorporation procedure works in Thailand, here is a list of the documents you need to prepare and file when starting a business here:

  • the company’s incorporation documents which are the same as in any country around the world;
  • information about the shareholders who can be natural or corporate persons, foreign or Thai nationals;
  • information about the company directors by respecting the provisions of the Corporate Code;
  • information about the headquarters of the company which must be established in a Thai city.

With respect to the most employed type of company, the limited liability company remains the preferred choice of foreign investors interested in starting a business in Thailand. You can rely on our lawyers in Thailand for the registration of any type of company. You can also rely on us for guidance in selecting a proper business form, in accordance with your vision and objectives.

Obtaining special licenses and permits of businesses in Thailand

One of the most important aspects of starting a business as a foreigner in Thailand is applying for specific business licenses. Among them we remind the following:

1.       import and export licenses for trading companies operating in Thailand;
2.       restaurant and food and beverages licenses for companies in the food manufacturing licenses;
3.       licenses for setting up companies in the tourism sector, one of the most developed Thai industries;
4.       financial licenses for foreign investors who want to enter the financial market.

Foreign investors can be subject to additional requirements when opening companies in Thailand which is why legal advice is recommended. Our lawyer in Thailand can assist you in the process of setting up a company in this country. 

Company due diligence performed by our lawyers in Thailand

There are several ways of starting a business in Thailand. Even if the most employed method is by registering a company from scratch, foreign investors also have the possibility of buying ready-made companies, or to buy out partially or completely other companies.

The main difference between the two possibilities resides in the fact that the shelf company is a registered company with no previous activity and no liabilities. However, the future owner must verify the conditions of the purchase. This can be done through a company due diligence procedure which can be completed by our Thai lawyers.

The company due diligence when buying a shelf company is rather simple and can be completed in a matter of hours.

The other option mentioned above refers to mergers and acquisitions. In this case, the company due diligence process is more complex and it is best to discuss with a lawyer in Thailand who is specialized in this sector. Our law firm will carefully revise all the legal documents of the company, will complete a report in accordance with the data issued by the Trade Register and will inform the client about the possible liabilities of the company.

In case you need company due diligence reports on a company, you can rely on our lawyers in Thailand for comprehensive information.

Assistance in buying real estate in Thailand

Thailand is a very respected vacation destination and many foreign citizens decide to buy properties here with the purpose of living in them or renting them. The procedure for buying a property in Thailand is subject to several requirements which can be explained by our Thai lawyers.

We can complete real estate due diligence procedures in order to help clients establish if the property to purchase is the right option and we also offer assistance throughout the sale-purchase phase.
We can also guide foreign businessmen who want to buy real estate for investment purposes. Considering this process is more complicated and the transaction implies a higher cost, it is a good idea to solicit legal advice from a law firm in Thailand.

Assistance in employment matters in Thailand

The Employment Law in Thailand is quite complex and different from Western countries, however, many investors from these countries decide to set up operations in Thailand and hire local workforce.

Our lawyers in Thailand can offer the needed assistance to those who need to understand how the provisions of the Employment Law applies in their case. From drafting labor contracts to support in resolving contractual disputes, our lawyers can help no matter the situation.

With respect to foreign employees, it is important to know that the Thai company hiring them must first apply for the necessary work permits before bringing them into the country. The procedure is not complicated, however, the employer might need assistance in preparing the paperwork related to obtaining the work permit.

With years of experience behind, our law firm in Thailand offers personalized support in various employment-related matters.

We can help both local and foreign investors with the entire company registration procedure followed by the employment process. We can also help in intra-company transfers of employees in the case of foreign companies operating through subsidiaries and branches, or even liaison offices in Thailand.

Why choose Thailand?

Asia is one of the world’s largest continents and the great number of countries here can be a problem for those who want to settle and start a business here, however, Thailand is a great economy because:

  • 2017 and 2018 were good years marking a Gross Domestic Product increase of 4%, respectively 4.1%;
  • Thailand’s GDP is expected to grow by 3.9% in 2019;
  • 2020 is forecast to bring a 3.7% GDP growth for Thailand;
  • the GDP per capita is expected to increase by 3.5% in 2019 and 3.3% in 2020.

Please contact our team of Thai lawyers for more information about the services provided to foreign companies in Thailand; our lawyers can also offer their assistance to individuals who are involved in various types of litigation cases. Besides assistance in these matters, if you also need help acquiring a Thai residence permit, get in touch with our agents.
