Q: What type of business entities can be incorporated in Thailand?

Businesses can be incorporated as sole proprietorships, limited and unlimited partnerships, private limited companies, public limited companies, branch offices and representative and regional offices.

Q: How much capital is required to assemble a company in Thailand?

The minimum capitalization for a Thai company is a nominal amount as required by law. However, 100,000 baht is generally the lowest capitalization seen. A company with foreign shareholders normally requires a registered capital of 2,000,000 baht, in order to support a visa and work permit for a single non-Thai. However, in order to obtain a license normally a greater capitalization amount is required.

Q: How long does it normally take to incorporate a company?

The amount of time required for incorporation in Thailand is dependent upon the type of company that is incorporated and whether the company is incorporated under the treaty of Amity or the BOI. A basic company can be incorporated in as few as 2-3 weeks.
