Company Registration
Company Registration in Thailand
Establishing your business with confidence through expert legal guidance and seamless compliance
More Than Just Paperwork
Starting a business in Thailand requires more than simply filling out forms. It is about setting up your company with the right structure, compliance, and clarity from the very beginning. At Fig Tree, we help you establish your business with confidence by managing every legal and procedural step on your behalf.
Our comprehensive company registration service covers everything from entity setup to essential post-registration processes. This includes VAT registration, Social Security Fund (SSF) registration, and other statutory filings required to make your company fully operational and compliant with Thai law.
We begin by understanding your business goals and recommending the most suitable structure whether a Thai-owned company, a joint venture, or a BOI-promoted entity. Once the direction is clear, our experienced team prepares all official documents in both Thai and English, ensuring accuracy and clarity throughout the process.
Our team coordinates directly with the Department of Business Development (DBD) and other relevant authorities, handling all communications and submissions on your behalf. This allows you to focus on building your business whilst we manage the regulatory requirements.
