Types of Company Structures in Thailand

When establishing a business in Thailand, choosing the right company structure is crucial to ensuring that your operations are legally compliant and optimized for success. Below are the key types of company structures available in Thailand, each suited to different business needs and goals:

Thai Limited Company

The Thai Limited Company is the most popular and versatile business structure in Thailand, commonly chosen by both local and foreign entrepreneurs. This structure is similar to a private limited company in other jurisdictions and offers the following features:

  • Limited Liability: Shareholders’ liability is limited to the amount of capital they have invested in the company.
  • Minimum Shareholders: Requires at least three shareholders, who can be either individuals or corporate entities. 51% have to be owned by Thai citizens.

Representative Office

A Representative Office is ideal for foreign companies looking to establish a non-trading office in Thailand to oversee business activities such as marketing, research, and quality control. Key characteristics include:

  • Non-Revenue Generating: This structure cannot engage in commercial activities or generate income in Thailand
  • Limited Scope of Activities: Permitted activities include market research, sourcing goods or services, and coordinating with the parent company
  • No Corporate Tax Liability: Since the Representative Office does not earn revenue, it is not subject to corporate income tax in Thailand

Branch Office

A Branch Office allows foreign companies to conduct business operations in Thailand, directly engaging in commercial activities under the name of the parent company. Key points include:

  • Same Legal Entity as Parent Company: The Branch Office is not a separate legal entity but operates under the parent company’s name
  • Revenue Generating: Unlike a Representative Office, a Branch Office can earn revenue and engage in business activities within Thailand
  • Taxation: The Branch Office is subject to Thai corporate income tax on its locally-sourced income

BOI-Promoted Company

A BOI-Promoted Company benefits from the incentives provided by the Board of Investment (BOI) in Thailand, making it an attractive option for businesses in certain industries. Key features include:

  • Tax Incentives: BOI-promoted companies may receive corporate income tax exemptions, reduced import duties, and other tax benefits. Our tax consultants are ready to provide you with expert advise.
  • Sector-Specific Incentives: BOI promotion is available to businesses in sectors deemed beneficial for Thailand’s economic development, such as technology, manufacturing, and renewable energy
  • Streamlined Processes: BOI-promoted companies benefit from faster processing times for permits and licenses, as well as assistance with bringing in foreign experts and skilled workers
