Setting Up A New Company In Thailand

[daniel2183]

Hi,

Just looking for a bit of advise on setting up a new company in Phuket . Also I need to obtain 2 working visa's for British people.

Any advise would be much appreciated.

Thanks :-)

Not sure what your questions is. Here are some basic parameters:

1.) You need 51% Thai shareholders

2.) You need a registered capital of THB 2 million, and four Thai employees per work permit.

Kindly specify your question.

hi, sorry if this is a silly question but when you say 2 million in registered capital, do you mean deposit 2 million bath in the company bank account?

is there a way to protect ourselves from thai partner accessing that 2million directly?

If you are American you don't need any Thai shareholders.

If you are married to a Thai you can half the Thai workers.

Cool thanks. I am not from USA and not arrived to a Thai.

Do the 2 million need to be deposited in account? If we find a business partner are tree ways to protect ourselves?

You sound like you are trying to start a business just to get 3 W/Ps.

There is no way to protect your self in any business in Thailand, just like the rest of the world.

You should go back to the drawing board and re think the whole idea from start to finish. Jim
