Not married to Thai = 2 million baht.

Married to Thai = 1 million baht.

This assets on the balance sheet.

Can also include goodwill, trademark value, intellectual property etc.

A good lawyer can set it up for you for about 50.000 baht.

To own a business in Thailand you will need to set up Thai company which needs to be capitalised at minimum of THB 2million (THB 1million if married). 25% of that amount needs to be paid up, ie, paid into company's bank account to run the business. The balance can show in company accounts as money due from the shareholders. Farangs can only own a maximum of 49% of the shares in the company so you need Thai shareholder(s) for the remaining 51%. There are restrictions as to what businesses farangs can operate as detailed in the Foreign Business Act. You need to employ 4 Thais (2 if married) to obtain a work permit sponsored by your company; working in Thailand without a work permit is illegal and the penalties can be severe.

Have a look at the following link for more information

Of course you can own 49%.

You can also work there as "General Manager".

      Perimenopause- Should see a doctor?

      As above. Thai doctors are not well informed about this and particularly not well informed about bioidentical HRT. (Synthetics may actuslly make matters worse). Certain anti-aging clinics are the best of the lot, but expensive. How severe are her symptoms? Do they vary with menstrual cycle? (PMDD, which oftens worsens at perimenopsysee, is sometimes confused with symptoms if perimenopause/menopause itself. Hall mark of PMDD us that symptoms sre absent in the 2 weeks immediately after menstruation).

      Zelensky v Putin

      No one has betrayed the Ukrainian people but those who divided their country and pushed them into this war. They have had enough and deserve peace.

      Zelensky v Putin

      Now apply the same logic to Russia invading Baltic states, then Poland… Actually, the spirit of Ukrainians is much stronger than that of Poles and Balts combined.So betray those Ukrainian heroes now. Betray them instead of supporting them with all that you only have. And then - expect nothing good for yourself, your children and their children too. You, insects, will get what you truly deserve!

      Germany developed a gel that regrows cartilage in damaged joints

      Exactly. Hence the Health Forum rule against posting news articles. These are almost always inaccurate or misleading. . This is the gel refetred to https://meidrix.de/en/chondrofiller/ It us not new, and it does not regrow cartilege. It is a collagen subdlstance that can be s implanted to help vompensate for worn out cartilege. Thread closed

      Dental clinic: no medical certificate for visa ?

      Yeah, what was I thinking, trying to outsmart an educated psychiatrist like you, who perfectly diagnosed my dissociative identity disorder. I guess the oxygen levels in my Mama`s basement are a bit low, since she installed that new heater. At no point have I mentioned that I was wasting my time. All I wrote is, that I cannot and will not hand out any certificate or confirmation for official use as long as do not get any written form from that authority exactly describing what kind of information I have to provide and that I am authorized to do that. Any written and signed statement from a medic is like a document and you have to take responsibility for it. You have no idea, what people demanded from me in the past. One asked me to write a confirmation that some work his previous dentist had performed was crap. Another wanted a certificate that he was allergic to vaccines. To any kind of vaccine. Normally when you need some official work done, you`ll get some list of documents which you`ll have to provide and if a medical certificate is asked for, there is normally a form. For renewing my doctor`s license every year I need among other things a medical certificate, stating that I do not have Syphilis, tuberculosis and elephantiasis (no joke). It is a preprinted from, which a doctor has to fill and stamp (they never checked for elephantiasis though). I cannot just walk into a doctors clinic and tell him to certify whatever I want. Why should they refuse, what the OP asked for, risking to lose a good implant patient? So again, provide the official papers, with the correct form or at least some official list stating what I should certify plus that I am authorized to do it, and I`ll gladly help you. No prepayment upfront needed. I only charge, what I have performed. As for certificates, I`ve never asked my patients for more than to buy me a beer. I can`t confirm that. Many people would do anything to stay here as long as possible. However, those who wouldn't normally get their surgery and come back 3 months or more later for the crowns. Seriously, I was just trying to provide some useful information to contribute to the forum. Why do I have to face all that negativity? By the way, @The Fugitive I never wrote, I was THAI. If I prove you wrong, would you have the decency to apologize for your wrong allegations? Plus explain my "multiple" personalities.

      Indian street scammers in Sukhumvit

      In what world is pointing out you are bald or fat to a stranger going to win you any customers? Does that sort of cold marketting work? Same thing tonight in Bangkok. Pakistani or Indian guy randomly pointed at a guy that he was bald. He was lucky he didn't get knocked out, the Russian was drunk as a skunk and wasn't aware it was just an idiot trying to direct you to a shop.
