    What a load of unhelpful and pessimistic replies!   First, go work to a fast food outlet for at least a year to see how the mechanics of it works.  Research what the most popular outlet

    You will need to form a company with 2 million baht capital and need four Thai employees to get a work permit. 

Hello Michael,

A good point for you,
you always accept our suggestions or your reflections with modesty,
even when gently ironic.
  You are made for the contact with the public. Congratulations. You passed the first test.

As everyone mentioned, the fast/street food business in Bangkok is overcrowded. In another city like Ayutthaya, Chiang Mai or Pattaya will be easier. Easier will be also a different concept of restaurant rather than street food. As you're from Corsica, a melting pot of Mediterranean food could be a better idea I think.

Don't quit your project, but take more time to think about it because foreign "owned" businesses are very difficult to set in Thailand.

I visited Chiang Mai and I know a few Mediterranean restaurants that are successful there! Maybe you should try your chance in another city like Pattaya or Patong. Do you have knowledge and experience in gastronomy cuisine? Or at least in managing restaurants ?

Yes, I can create a kitchen with Moroccan, Corsican and Italian influences, because I know these places well. As I said I have some experience in fast food restaurant management but not in the kitchen itself. At the limit I think open a delicatessen offering Mediterranean products such as charcuterie, cheese ... With a small corner to start. It seems more feasible ...

Hello Michael,

To do a market study.

Address up for the Commerce Franco-Thai Chamber of FTTC on the local labor law.
Always ask God first, before his saints.
I'm not sure of the email:

Otherwise, you send an email to the Embassy of France in Thailand, and you will be directed to the good service.
Good research.

Yes, opening a Deli sounds like a more reasonable step to begin running a business here! And it can be an enjoyable activity also. So you must take time to travel Corsica/Spain/Morocco/Italy in order to find the producers that will provide you amazing culinary products. Then find a company that can help you to import it.

if your idea was a good one then fine, just remember there's a lot of competition in the food business in bkk. also, you'll need decent capital and good thai connections otherwise i'd say you're taking a serious risk with your capital. do more research, i suspect it's not as easy as you think

Taking a serious risk with his Life aswell, a young foreigner opening up a fast Food joint in BKK, unless he has very good Thai  connections this is a non starter, there are plenty of other countries to persue your venture, i would give this place a miss life is to short my Friend.

Hello everyone ?

 

Yes, I will certainly return to Corsica for a while to think more carefully and start to define the concept of my business and interested producers to provide me with good crafts. Anyway I should certainly import some products, do you have any information on customs in Thailand and more generally on the modalities to import?

Reading this report should get you started.

Here is a company I know that can provide you freight services, they are specialized in the Thai market https://siam-shipping.com/ .

Ronald McDonald is a fictional clown, so I bet plenty of people laughed at him.
