Corporate

Business Setup Thailand

End-to-end company formation, BOI promotion and corporate compliance for international businesses.

Overview

Understanding Business Setup Thailand

Thailand offers strong opportunities for international businesses, but the setup process involves specific corporate, ownership, licensing and tax steps. Foreign-owned companies face rules on shareholding, business activities and work permits that must be handled correctly from the start.

We form Thai and BOI-promoted companies, draft shareholder agreements, manage licensing and work permits, and provide ongoing accounting and compliance so your business operates lawfully from day one.
