Thailand has an inclusive culture, open policies, a population of 70 million and a strategic geographic location that provides access to global markets. The government has launched the "Thailand 4.0" strategy, which focuses on the development of high-tech industries and offers tax breaks, industrial parks and other incentives to attract foreign investment.
In addition, a vibrant consumer market, lower labor costs, and continued optimization of the business environment have made it a favored destination for global investors.
✅ Government incentives: The Thai government has introduced a series of incentives that allow foreign-controlled companies to be able to enjoy incentives in many areas.
✅ Location Advantage: Thailand is a centerpiece within the Asian region and is strategically located, making it ideal for businesses that need to trade across borders, in addition to being a member of the ASEAN countries, which makes it easy to trade with other ASEAN countries.
✅ Advantage of Trade Freedom: Thailand is currently involved in free trade agreements including: ASEAN Comprehensive Investment Agreement, ASEAN Framework Agreement on Services, Australia-Thailand Free Trade Agreement, Japan-Thailand Economic Partnership Agreement, U.S.-Thailand Treaty of Friendship and Economic Relations, etc., which enables the company registered in Thailand to do business to conduct free trade in the international arena.

05 Process or steps to register a Thai company
To set up a Thai limited company, you need to follow specific steps to register according to the following guide:
Step 1: Company Name Reservation
When booking any company name, the name booking guidelines provided by the Department of Business Development (DBD), Ministry of Commerce, should be followed.
We usually ask our clients to provide at least 2-3 bookable company names in case the required name is already taken or unavailable.
Step 2: Identification of promoters, shareholders and directors
To form a Thai limited company, you need to have at least two promoters and shareholders and one director to register and form a company.
If the shareholders are both Thai and foreigners, or if the shareholders are all Thai but the director is a foreigner, a certificate of the Thai shareholder's bank statement issued by the Bank of Thailand is required to prove that the amount of funds in his/her bank account equals or exceeds the cost of the shares held by each Thai shareholder.
We usually ask for details of the promoters, shareholders and directors of the company such as passport or Thai ID number, age, address, occupation, contact details etc.
Step 3: Filing of Memorandum of Association
The Memorandum of Association (MOA) must be submitted to the Department of Business Development (DBD) of the Ministry of Commerce, which includes the name of the company that has been successfully booked, the province in which the company is located, the objectives of the business, the registered capital, and the names of the promoters.
While there is no minimum capital requirement, the amount of capital should be sufficient and reasonable to meet the needs of the anticipated business operations.
In addition, if you plan to hire a foreigner, you will need a minimum capital of 2 million baht (THB 2,000,000) per foreigner in order to obtain a non-immigrant "B" visa and a work permit for them to work in Thailand.
Step 4: Convene a statutory meeting
Following the determination of the company's share structure, the approval of the Memorandum and Articles of Association, the election of the Board of Directors and the appointment of the auditors, a statutory meeting is convened to make all appointments.
Step 5: Registration
The directors of a company must submit an application for incorporation and pay the company registration fee within three months from the date of the statutory meeting.
Step 6: Incorporation of the company for corporate income tax purposes
All companies in Thailand are required to register for tax purposes. Businesses that are liable to pay Corporate Income Tax (CIT) must obtain a tax card and company registration number from the Inland Revenue Authority of Thailand (IRAT) within 60 days of the company's establishment or commencement of business.
Business operators who are liable to pay Value Added Tax (VAT) are also required to register for a VAT ID within 30 days from the date of sales of 600,000 baht.
Step 7: Opening a company bank account
Company bank accounts and internet banking can be opened in Thailand once the company is officially registered.
Some of the details required to open a company bank account include the bank and branch where the account will be opened, the type of account the company needs and who will sign the relevant documents.
The registration process usually takes at least 9 days (mainly because the statutory meeting should be held at least 7 days before registration).
Both the company and the memorandum of association shall be registered with the Registrar of the Department of Business Development, Ministry of Commerce, in accordance with the prescribed format and conditions of the document.
