How to Open a Company in Thailand: Features of the Registration Process

Businesspeople interested in Southeast Asia are recommended to pay attention to Thailand. If an entrepreneur is aiming for success and approaches planning carefully, this country can become the right place to realize all business ideas. The reason is that Thailand has a rapidly developing economy, and the government actively supports small and medium-sized businesses.

The country places great emphasis on attracting foreign investors. In particular, there is a special investment program that allows entrepreneurs to enjoy corporate tax exemption for up to 8 years. The greatest chance of receiving such a benefit is for entrepreneurs who decide to open a company in Thailand to engage in:

  • scientific research;
  • educational activities related to advanced technologies;
  • licensing certain technologies, with the intention of introducing them to the market in the future.

In other words, if you decide to open a business in Thailand in the field of high technology, you will have the maximum chances of obtaining corporate tax exemption.

Steps

01

Choosing a name for the future company in Thailand

The client must provide 3 possible company names. We will check their availability for registration and suggest available options for the final choice. If all three options are taken, we will request additional ones. Providing 3 names is not mandatory but speeds up the verification process.

02

Preparing documents

The client must prepare personal documents for company registration. Preparation can be done in parallel with the first stage. The exact list depends on the specifics of the future company. Typically, a passport copy, proof of address of participants, and a power of attorney are provided.

03

Preparing registration forms

Based on the client’s data, we prepare a set of documents for submission to the Register.

04

Submitting documents for registration

The prepared set of documents is submitted to the Register. After that, the registrar processes them and the company is entered into the Register database.

05

Obtaining confirmation of company registration

After the company is entered into the Register, its registration details become available, and statutory documents can be ordered in paper form with or without certification. Our specialists will help with all necessary certifications (notarization, apostille) and, if required, translations into other languages.
