Looking For Reliable Law Office For Incorporating.

[Doi Thong]

I'm looking to incorporate general trading company with export/import licence+obtain work permit etc. It's a lot of companies that providing this kind of services around,but I'm looking for best formula of price/reliabitily/fast service. Any advise will be kindly appreciated.

I can only advise that my firm would be intrested in being considered to assist you.

We are not a "law firm" - although we do habitually use one outside Thai lawyer to perform the very small amount of "legal work" required.

If you send me a private message to which I can reply with attachments, I can send you a set of documents that outlines process steps and costs - in relation to working through my firm. This will effectively give you at least one frame of reference.

It would theoretically be possiblke to reserve a company name, complete company registration process, and obtain VAT and tax registrations within about 12 days (including a nine-day statutory delay). The fastest we have ever completed the process was about 18 days. The typical process takes 30-60 days - and the most time-consuming part is ALWAYS the client's delay in obtaining building owner's certification of occupancy for the registered business address of the company (which is required in order to obtain VAT/tax regsitrations).

Good luck!

You can also try Ronachai Krisdaolarn 17th Fl. ITF Tower 2, Silom Road tel 02-231-6201 email [email protected]. He's a American, naturalized Thai citizen and has been here for about 30 odd years, fluent in Thai and some other Asian languages. He is a friend and also my lawyer, but I have no financial stake in making this recommendation.
