Q16: What are Government expected tax amount of dormant company I have to take in consideration for one year?

Panwa: Taxation of dormant company base on kind of related tax below;
a. Corporate income tax (CIT), imposed base on “net profit” below is tax rate for year 2017 - 2022 as below:

Net Profie

Incentive for SME
Capital not exceeding
Baht 5 million

for year 2017 - 2019

Ordinary company
Capital exceeding
Baht 5 million

for year 2017 - 2019

0 - 300,000
0%
20%
300,001 - 3,000,000
15%
20%
Over 3,000,000
20%
20%

Normally, net profit will be calculated by = Income – Expenditure, for this should concentrate on kind of income as below situation:

You put capital fund into bank( such as saving account), this kind of income is “Interest from Bank”

You do not put that capital fund into bank that mean still keep in your personal bank, that fund must be recorded as “Loan to director”, this kind of income is “Interest” form its loan. Applicable interest rate for this borrowing is 4% per annum.

 

Example; Case study:
Capital is Baht 10 million, Expenditure Baht 20,000 for 1 year period, tax amount will be paid is Baht

(4%10,000,000) – 20,000 = Net profit = 380,000 Baht,
CIT - Tax amount = 20%380,000 = Baht 76,000 per year) , applicable tax rate is 20%
**SBT – Tax amount = 3.3% of 400,000 = Baht 13,200 per year, will be paid when settle interest of loan.

Remark; We advise you avoid a huge of tax amount by 2 ways below:

1. Setting up company with capital no exceeding Baht 5 million
In the same case study; tax amount for capital Baht 5 million is
CIT = Baht 4,500 per year.
**SBT = Baht 6,600 per year.

2. Setting up company with capital no exceeding Baht 5 million and paid up only 25% of registered capital.
In the same case study; tax amount for capital Baht 5 million with paid up capital 25% is
CIT = Baht 0.00 per year.
**SBT = Baht 1,650 per year. 

3. We recommends you to set up company with capital of Baht 1 million and paid up only 25% of registered capital.
In the same case study; tax amount for capital Baht 1 million with paid up capital 25% is
CIT = Baht 0.00 per year.
**SBT = Baht 330 per year. 

b. Half year tax, except for the first year, but for the second year and onwards will be paid at least 50% of CIT, and can use its tax as credit amount for CIT’s calculation at ending period.

c. Monthly withholding tax, will withhold and be paid within 7th day of the following month. Normally, dormant company no business activity will no withholding tax amount.

d. VAT, there are no requirement for registration of dormant company because of income still not exceeding Baht 1.8 million. VAT registration can be done later when start the business activity.

e. **Special Business Tax (SBT), base on “Interest Income” from “Loan to director” by applicable tax rate is 3.3% per annum.

Section 41 A taxpayer who in the previous tax year derived assessable income under Section 40 from an employment, or from business carried on in Thailand, or from business of an employer residing in Thailand, or from a property situated in Thailand shall pay tax in accordance with the provisions of this Part, whether such income is paid within or outside Thailand.

Q32: we plan to set up a company and have involved manufacturing activities for electronics and circuit board production, but it will not be a large manufacturing, it might be just a small size factory please advise the necessary license we need to apply, and this company must register under manufacturing company or ordinary standard company.

Panwa: In Thailand the factories are separated into 3 groups (Under the Factory Act B.E.2535(1992), based on the impact of the factory operations on the public or the environment as follow:

  • Group 1 – Factories that can operate immediately without prior government permission
  • Group 2 – Factories that require prior notification of the pertinent government authority before the business starts operations
  • Group 3 – Factories that require the application for a factory license before the establishment of the factory.

For you case, as mentioned that small size therefore you  should focus into Group 1 first, the condition for the Group 1 as below:

  • Employees not more than 20 persons
  • Machinery for manufacturing, There are not more than 20 horsepower

Anyway if you factory fall into this group, you still need to inform the Sub District Administration Organization (Aor.Bor.Tor.) by issue the letter and then send to them.

In Thailand you can set only one company and provide both industries by just put the business objective covering to it, on the other hand you are able to set up a private limited company first and then later you also can modify (change) the business objective by covering further objectives that you need more.

Q33: After read the information on your website, knowing that if we form a private limited company in Thailand, the majority share must be on Thais. Please advise how could we make sure the execution power is on our hand?

  1. You engage Thai people to hold share on your behalf and let them sign into “Share Transfer Agreement” with blank in receiver and date (you can change to anyone anytime).
  2. You engage Thai people to hold share on your behalf and let them hold only the preferred share with specific the voting right such as 10 shares can be only 1 vote meanwhile the common share will be hold by your side which can be 1 share for 1 vote. That’s mean every time you have vote you side will over right forever.

Panwa: As foreigner and age over 20 years old is allow by law to become promoter and after registration is completed you must hold minimum for 1 shares and promoters’ potential legal liability is limited only for paying expenses occoured during association (forming) of the company registration, anyway when you become to shareholder, you as shareholder still has liability is limited for the par value of the shares they will hold and not yet paid. Anyway the promoter can transfer to other or new shareholder later.

Q51: As I known the company name reservation is the first process of company setting up, has any criteria of this reservation and time spent?

Panwa: The promoter is required to reserve the company name together with 2 alternative names, the registrar will then examine the application in order to ensure that:

  1. No similar company names have previously been reserved
  2. The name do not violate any ministerial rules.

If the applicant’s intended name is in conflict with either of the above, that name will be rejected and the registrar will consider the alternative names submitted. This process can complete within 2 or 3 working days. If all 3 named submitted are rejected the applicant will be required to re-submit the form with another 3 new names.

Panwa: There is no need to show Baht 2 million (in company bank account or your account), anyway for your Thai shareholder must preseent evidence of source of funds issued by bank (letter issued by bank to prove that the investment fund keeping at the bank) assume that case of capital of Baht 2 million, Thai shareholder(s) have to prove evidence of source of fund for approx. Baht 1,010,000 (51%).

Q54: If I have 3 shareholders, 1 Thai & 2 Singaporean. Do you require 3 shareholders to be in Thailand to sign the Application Documents?

Q58: we are not looking to apply working permit. How much is authorized capital and how much paid up capital. Maybe 50,000 baht.

Panwa: I recommend you to register 1 million it’s better, because of the cost of Government fee it’s the same cost, and please don’t worry about the money deposit in the Bank. It’s no need to put the investment fund into the company bank account (just declare on the registration paper that the fund kept within the director is enough), it's a normal practice for companies in Thailand (over 90% do this way) due to most of company have no real fund. Please be informed that in step of company registration stated in the registration form, it must be declared that the investment fund will be kept with the Director. That means, you can put as much as you can for the rest will record in account as "Loan to director".

For paid up Share – For now, we will put partially paid up of 25% first then we will just update to 100% since our Thai nominee will need to show his bank statement.

Q59: I just would like to ask you about VAT registration, do you need to register? Yes/No ( please explain me the condition of VAT.)

Case of small business like you and do not looking to apply working permit, it's no need to register VAT at beginning and please be informed that even though non-VAT your company are able to carry on business in Thailand same as other company.

Q60: At this stage, setting up this company is to test a new business venture and to be able to import products (food & beverage) into Thailand from overseas. As this business is just a test, I would like set this up as cheap as possible.

Panwa: We can propose you the service of company registration with the fee of Baht 15,000 and please note that after your company registration’s completed, you need to apply for export and import license as well. And one of the requirement for applying the said license is that you need to open a savings bank account first.

Q65: Is the minimum capital for setting up a company?

Panwa: You can set up with minimize capital of Baht 15 (3 shares of Baht 5 each) but we do not recommend due to the government cost from Baht 15 to Baht 1 million capital having the same cost (when your company increase capital to be Baht 1 million you have to pay government cost again), and under Thai incorporation law you can register capital with partially paid up that’s mean You can register capital with Baht 1 million and declare for partially (minimum paid up) paid up as 25% that’s mean in corporation document will be shown as authorization capital is Baht 250,000.

And please be informed that in this setting up foreigner and company no need to prove investment fund or no need to deposit into company’s bank account (only Thai shareholder have to prove their investment by request bank issue certificate of their deposit at bank).

Q68: We are a Product Engineering Company based in India. We currently design to market via a company based in Thailand to our customer world wide:

1> is it possible to incorporate a such Company in Thailand ?

Panwa: Yes, that's a good structure, below is a rough benefit that your company can get:

  1. case of your company do not sale locally in Thailand, your company can own shares 100% by foreigner or foreign company, no need to apply under FBA (Foreign Business Act).
  2. Case of your company do not sale locally in Thailand, you can get 0% VAT for export business that's mean for purchase (impout) VAT can be refunded for full amount, anyway shipment and custom document have to support for tax purpose in Thailand.
  3. Tax incentive or lower rate of Corporate Income Tax, caese of your Thai company register with capital not exceeding Baht 5 million and generate income not over Baht 30 million a year your Thai company can get tax incentive for corporate income tax in Thailand even though you are not all into the aforesaid situation of capital and income, Thai corporate income tax rate is 20% which still lower that rate in India.

Remark: I notice that many Indian company come for setting up a company here in Thailand for this benifit, by this model they do not have any office or employee, they handle and manage everything from India, by this way Panwa can support not only setting up company but also:

  • accounting, tax
  • auditing
  • financail operation (via trust account)
  • secretarial service
  • and etc.

2 > In the event the goods will attract import tax in Thailand, can the goods be shipped either directly from the logistics provider from COMPANY-India to the customer, with the payment coming to COMPANY-Thailand ?

Panwa: Case of your goods will be shipped directly from Company-India to customer (of company-Thailand) directly without come (pass) to Thailand, you no need to pay any import tax to Thai government, anyway you have to prove the shipping document from Company-India that's have already paid import tax in India.

Q69: What is the paid up capital requirement?

Panwa: You can choose to keep the paid up capital at director or deposit into company bank, anyway most of Thai company do not deposit into the company's bank, if so the interest of un-deposit (into company's bank) is subject to tax of special business tax or corporate income tax (case of profit). Anyway case of foreigner hold the shares less than 50% the Thai shareholder have to prove the investment fund by showing the bank's certificate.

Q70. Does all the directors need to be present personlly front of registrar for the signing of documents .

Panwa: Yes, director and shareholder have to come to sign registration document in Thailand actually no need to be present personally to registrar, by this step we need a copy of passport including the page of immigration's stamp of arrival date to prove that you are staying in Thailand when you sign the registration form.

Q71: Are there any special requirement to move the funds/money out of the country? If so what is the maximum per day or per transection

Panwa: You can transfer money out of Thailand, anyway for huge amount the bank have to ask you for the reason and you have to fill up the form with enclose support document follow the rule of Bank of Thailand.

Q72: Who is the company secretary/auditors

Panwa: In Thailand there is no enforcement by law to appoint the company secretary but for auditor you have to appoint into Minute of Statury Meeting at the step of setting up company, we will put our auditor Mr.Prasert Poothong firstly, but you change later without any inform or declare to government or other party.

Q73: which is the good way between opening as a branch office or agent under new company name? How much will it cost ?

Panwa: Better to open a new company due to:

  1. Process of setting up, company will take time around 1 working day for registration (branch office will take time for approval for 2 months and when include all process will take time over 5 months.
  2. Cost of registration, a private company having service fee for Baht 20,000 meanwhile branch office our fee is Baht 100,000 minimum and a lot of extra cost such as translation and notarized document
  3. Government fee, a private company is charged depend on million of capital (minimum is Baht 6,500) meanwhile branch office is depend on Head Office capital which minimum is Baht 20,000 and also have to bring minimum capital for Baht 3 million and have to bring to Thailand within 3 years.
  4. Required Document, a company is required only copy of passport of director and foreigner meanwhile branch office is required a lot of document from Head Office, the Manager of branch and Most of document have to be notarized and also translation to Thai language.
  5. Tax incentive for a company with SME size the tax rate start from 0%, 15% and 20% but for branch office is having flat rate at 20%.

Therefore better to register a company, by this way Panwa can support you all kind of your needed with reasonable price and can ensure you that all process can be finished with 2 or 3 working days (case of urgent and use our office address will finish within 1 working day).

Q 74: Do we need to rent a shop or office space for the company address or we can use a virtual office for temporary?

Panwa: Yes, this registration have to declare an address in Thailand, but initial step you may use a temporary address from virtual office and later when find the proper place the address can be changed but the cost of its change approx Baht 10,000. Therefore better to find the office place first.

Q 75: And how we should learn before talk to the building owner or landlorad?

Panwa: You should ask the onwer of building (shop house or the place) before you decide to rent and pay deposit that:

  • Allow for business and agree to issue consent letter with necessary support document.
  • Allow us to withhold the tax for 5% when we pay rental fee.
  • Who will absorb property tax for the rate 12.5% of whole year rental payment
  • Agreement, who will draft and that agreement have English version?
  • Deposit or any charge when end of the contract.
  • Carefully read for condition of contract espeically case of you can't rent till end of period how is the compensationl.

Remark: Case of you rent shop house and want to put signboard or some advertisement on the building, it's better to put some Thai language inside due to the signborad tax will be 50% of full English advertisment signboard.

Q 78: The cost of assistance, paperwork and translation services, if register it with your company ?
Panwa: Same as mentioned in this webpage (http://www.panwagroup.com/setupcompanythailand.htm), And after the company registration is finished, the incorporation will be translated to English version also and all paperwork will be arranged by Panwa (you just only sign registration form will spend time 10 minutes and no need visit registration office or present to the registrar).
Q 79: we need paid up capital of 1 million baht and the money has to be in the bank during registration?
Panwa: No, there is no need to deposit to company bank, its’ just paper, anyway for further information related to its tax (if not deposit) you can look into Q&A item - Q16 of this webpage.
Q 80: I was wondering I would like to start a company in Bkk initially a shelf company by myself? is 100% possible.
Panwa: Yes, you can start a Thai company and keep status as dormant (shelf) company as long as you want, but for 100% owned by foreign is allowed for status of dormant (shelf) company too but when you have business activities foreigner (like you) have to check the type of business first which most of business allow foreigner to hold shares maximum 49% and the rest must be Thai for 51%. And under "company limited", the company must have minimum 3 shareholders.

Q 81: We plan to export unprocessed agricultural products such as export Cassava or export Tapioca with minimum value Baht 20 million a year to mainland China and other country, is it need to register the company with VAT? Actually I've heard that for trading of unprocessed agricultural product is fall into VAT examption.

Panwa: We would like to inform you that the export unprocessed agricultural products do not fall into VAT exemption (exemption only sale locally) so your business have to register for VAT, please read below Revenue Code, Section 81

Section 81 Value added tax shall be exempt on the following businesses:

(1) sale of goods but not for export purpose or provision of services as follows-

(a) sale of agricultural products whether they are trunks, branch, leaf, bark, offshoot, root, bud, bulb, pod, seed or other parts of plants and their by-products in fresh or preserved condition in order to temporarily prevent from spoiling during transportation by chilling, frozen means or by other means or preservation to prevent from spoiling for retail sale or whole sale by chilling, frozen, drying , grinding, segmentation method or by other method, white rice or by-product from rice milling but not including wood, firewood or products from wood sawing or food products in can container or package processed on manufacturing basis in accordance with terms and conditions prescribed by the Director-General.7

Q 82: I heard that VAT certificate cannot be issued if the company uses as its address of the office of an accounting or legal firm, if I prefer to use your address for this company registration is it possible?

Panwa: we did not provide you the address of accounting or legal firm. Below is our address:

  • Panwa Accounting address is No. 4/1 Soi Latphrao 52, Latphrao Road
  • Panwa Auditing address is No. 1560 Latphrao Road

    But this address for providing you for company registration iis No. 3 Soi Latphrao 52, Latphrao Road. Actually we've known this rule so we decide to supply another address which the past we rent out for office space, you can look into this like for address No. 3 at below link: http://www.panwagroup.com/officerentalladprao52thailand.htm

Q 83: I plan to register a company in Free Trade Zone in Thailand, do I need to register VAT and possible to waive VAT when my Thai suppliers delivery us products or services?

Panwa: In free trade zone, if your company generate income exceeding Baht 1.8 million a year, your company have to register VAT and when your supplier issue the Invoice they have to charge you VAT 7% except they can prove that they comply with below rule (refer to Revenue Code, sectiono 77/1(14)) so they can issue VAT for 0%

  1. Your supplier has to declare documents such as Proforma Invoice, Purchase Order or Order Note
  2. Your supplier has to prove evidence for the payment such as letter of credit or Telex Transfer or Term of payment or bank statement.
  3. Your supplier has to prove Entry Document for move the goods to Free Trade Zone, ordered by Custom Department.

And  your supplier must issue tax invoice with 0%.

Q84: We are interested in setting up a Foreign majority owned with BOI company in Thailand. Our main focus will be cosmetic manufacturing. Please advise as to relevant legal framework and how to start this registration and application.

Panwa: With regards to your queries relate to setting up foreign majority owned company with BOI, we recommend you to contact BOI office first due to:

  1. BOI allow the company to apply before company registration (you can apply under individual name) when the project is approved you can register the company later to obtain the BOI certificate and that time you will know all of their requirements especially the registered capital and location.
  2. Currently, BOI they have specialist team with good English communication and at the initial step they can help you to fill up the application form with arrange some necessary information so there is no need to engage any business provider in this step and then when the project is approved we (Panwa) can continue to serve you further to comply their requirement. Anyway you and your team have visit BOI office minimum 2 times for personal meeting and present the project.
  3. On the other hand, you can register a company before obtaining the BOI certificate too, but for carrying on business is allowed for the case of foreigner owned shares at maximum 49% and the rest owned by Thai, or you prefer to register the company by owning 100% shares at beginning this company can be registered but still not allow to carry on business until the BOI is approved and obtain the BOI under this company.
  4. For the timeframe and cost, you can look into website:

    http://www.panwagroup.com/setupcompanythailand.htm

Q 85: Our client want to set up a subsidiary in Thailand, so please brief us you cost, timeline and etc.

Panwa: With regards to your queries on behalf of your customer in Singapore relate to cost, timeline and etc, you can visit our website at: http://www.panwagroup.com/setupcompanythailand.htm

Moreover, with respect to your request, kindly be informed that our firm serve as a cheap model, thus, we prefer to serve directly to customers as mentioned in the website (right side, red box), hence, we would appreciate and thank you in advance if you let your customers contact us directly.

Q 86: We currently have a Liaison Office in Thailand that we want to convert into a branch office (branch of Singaporean company, the company was restered in Singapore).

Panwa: Thank you for your information and phone call, under your business model is too complicate you will carry on many kind of business and may be more in future so we do not recommend you for register as a branch of foreign bank here due to:

  1. step and process for application is too long, I can say more than 6 months even tough the approval step only 2 months.
  2. the scope of branch is limited as approval that's mean if you have other kind of business or just other income you have to get approval again.
  3. the cost such as our service fee is start at Baht 150,000 and also the other charge such as translation, notarization and etc.
  4. you also have to provide a lot of information of head office company.
  5. Government fee is higher than private company.
  6. tax rate, is not acceptable for incentive rate, meanwhile the private company is very low tax rate especially for buying a old company there is 0% tax for this year and also 10% tax for the next year if the income is not exceeding Baht 30 million.

Therefore, we recommend you to register as a Thai private company due to it's much easier, cheaper and faster.

Q 87: Can you please give me some pricing on what it would cost to set up a limited company and what it cost for the treaty of Amity.  

Panwa:  You can learn through an easy way below to carry on business in Thailand under Treaty of Amity between Thai and US; This step can be completed within 25 days.  

Timeline and Step

To register a company under Treaty of Amity, the rough steps as below:

  • step A. To register a company, process take time 2 or 3 working days. (item-5 as bellow detail)
  • step B. To certify for American citizenship at US embassy, take time 5 days.
  • step C. To get certification at Ministry of commerce, take time around 15 days.
    (Totaling estimated day for 25 days).  

Provision Cost:

  1. My service fee for register company (step 1) is Baht 17,000 
    + plus government fee is for Baht 12,500 (depend on capital, this example is for Baht 2 million)
    + Other fee depend on request such as you need our assistance for Bank account and etc.
  2. My service fee covering for step B and C is Baht 35,000
    + the fee at US Embassy for 80$
    + the fee at Ministry of Commerce for the certification is Baht 22,000.
  3. For other cost (if need) please look into above provision cost.

Q 88: If we request your company service, the fees will be 7000 baht. How does this work?

Panwa: Actually our service fee start at Baht 17,000 which covering; company's name reservation, preparing registration form such as Memorandum, Company's Article, Sharholders' List and etc, and its form submission to Ministry of Commerce for company registration and of course we can provide free of charge for VAT registration too but it's must be applied within 6 months when the quotation is approved. With this fee we can provide free of charge for 2 hrs training regarding basic financial system and tax and also when we finish the registration all incorporation documents will be translated into English version and all of them will be kept in file and also scanned with sending by email too.

Q 89: If we put the money in the bank account, say 510,000 baht. How many days in advance should be put the money? Would we be asked where we get the money from?

Panwa: When you deposit Baht 510,000 into your Thai shareholder's bank account, You can ask (request) for bank's certificate which will be issued within 1 or 2 days, by this whenever you obtain bank's certificate, the capital fund can be withdraw immediately.

Q 90: For office, we will rent a small one in Bangkok. There are several big companies that offer space for new startups.

Panwa:
Understood, most of the virtual office company are concerned on VAT registration if you choose to be non-VAT registration you may get some discount or lower rate from them.

Q 91: Will the company registration includes preparation of Memorandum of Articles of Associates and company share certificates?

Panwa:
Yes, all are included and will be translated into English version too, again our customer will obtain all incorporated documents in Thai and English version as below;

  • Company Certificate
  • Company Affidavit
  • Company's objectives
  • Memorandum of Association
  • Company Sear (BOJ.3)
  • Minute of Statutory Meeting
  • Shareholders' List
  • Official Receipt which will show all of government fee.

Q92: Understand that I will need 3 promoters to set up a local Thai company. Does promoter mean director of the company?

Panwa: Promoter can be same group of shareholders, actually the director can become from one (or all) of promoters/ shareholders too.​ Of course director is different in meaning of promoter since promoter require minimum of 3 individual persons but director can be only one person.

Q93; We will be registering the company with a Thai local (a spouse of our Director).

Panwa: One of the shareholder can be a spouse of your director but you have to prevent the ownership of disputation and in this registration your Thai have to prove the investment fund, case of you are inconvenience to prove the investment fund of your Thai, we also have solution for this (your side and your Thai no need to prove the investment fund).

Q94: YOU: I would like to ask about what is the total fees we need to pay to register for the Thailand BOI. How do you charge and what are the requirements?

Panwa: You may start with BOI first, we recommend you to contact directly to the BOI's team which currently they have special team to support the foreigner and process be done very fast, this step you can start to apply them by yourself with under your personal name (individual), their team will help you to prepare all of document and later they will request you to present your project with some interview. When the project is approved, you will get the approval letter so at that time Panwa can follow its requirement to start process of company registration and of course we can help you to full fill the application form for BOI and certificate for Ministry of Commerce of Thailand.

Q95: If I choose to have office address with you how do I pay rent? Monthly or all year at once.

Panwa: We propose for 1 year contact with the fee of Baht 18,000 with fully paid before use our address, In case you move out within 6 months we can give back for 50% or Baht 9,000.

Q96: We would like to set up a retail shop selling food/drink, kindly advise how we can do the legal process?

Panwa: At first you need to register the company, then kindly note that for your business, after you finished the process of company registration then you need to apply the licenses for Food and Beverage license and Liquor license first before starting to do the business, which if the food need to cook first before sale, you also need to get the permission from the local district area as well, but if in case ready-made food (instant food) to sale, no need to apply more permission.

Q97: We are interested to setup up company with money exchange services in Bangkok Thailand. Could you please give me some advice?

Panwa: With regards to your queries related to setup a company for business of money exchange services, please note that after you already register the company, you also need to apply for money exchange license, which for apply the said license, the Government has only 4 periods for apply, which are: March, June, September and December, and the officer take time to approve around 3 months.

Moreover, some of the important points that must be considered before applying exchange license are;

  • The shareholders and director must be individuals and all must be Thai Nationality
  • The minimum capital required is 1 million Baht and fully paid up capital 100%
  • The police record of the director, due to the officer will conduct a background check of the company’s director as below;
    1 The director shall not be tried before national court and shall not be subjected to any types of bankruptcy.
    2 Had not been sentenced by a special court’s final judgment and had not been imprisoned for an offence under the law of exchange.
    3 He/she has never been involved or has history of delinquency on the law prevention and suppression of money laundering.

Q98 : Is it possible to have one Thai shareholder and 2 foreign shareholders. So 51% Thai person, 30% me and 19% another foreigner. Both, me and the other foreigner would be a director. However, we would not be employed by the company.

Panwa: kindly note that it is possible to have 1 Thai shareholder who holds 51% and 2 foreigners hold a total of 49% and there is no problem also if both foreigner shareholders would also be director.

Q99: I am Indian I want make company in Thailand . I want purchase agricultur land.

Panwa: You can purchase the land for agriculture business via register a Thai company which this company must have Thai majority owned shares for minimum of 51% and the foreigner can hold the shares for maximum of 49% whereas this company can do all kind of business same as Thai.

Q100: Need your advise on how much Registered Capital for my new Thai company? For example, is it ok for USD100K equivalent to 3million baht? Just to double confirm that we dont need to physical transfer the funds to Thailand, correct?

Panwa: Yes, you can start with that amount (Baht 3 million equal to USD 100,000), by law the registered capital can be start from Baht 15 ( 3 shares with Baht 5 each).

But for this amount equal to Baht 3,000,000 million but case of you can't bring the fund to Thailand or don't spend into business or can't deposit into company's bank account this amount will be recognized as "Loan to director" and then end of the period (financial year) this amount will be calculated and recgonized interest income (3% per annum) which will pay SBT (special business Tax) tax at rate of 3.3% of interest income or Baht 990 for each Baht 1 million capital (case of interest income be calculated at 3% per annum) so your case may need to pay SBT at approx Baht 2,970 per year.

So my recommendation is you should keep the registered only Baht 1 million or Baht 2 million. Of course the current interest rate is lower, it's may 1.5% - 2% now but our office still recommend to calculate at 3% to prevend any be negotiated by tax officer, since most of our customer is foreigner.

Q101: For register the company, will my overstay cause any paperwork problems? Can I be director and authorized signatory without clearing the passport stamps (I have overstayed)?

Panwa: No, cannot be because the required document is copy of valid passport with the latest immigration stamp and still not yet expired, thus, before you will register the company, it would be better if you should clear all of your VISA first to avoid the problem.

Q102: Is possible to register a company Limited by using Asset or Property as registered capital, I have some machinery and property in Thailand and prefer to prove as investment for company capital fund ?

Panwa: In case of register company by asset or property, must submit a proof of transfer letter of ownership of asset to limited partnership or company limited, or the consent letter allowing limited partnership to use asset or property with the registration forms.

Once the registrar accepted the registration forms, you have to submit either one of the following documents within 90 days

  1. Property or registered asset (car, machine) must submit the copy of evidence that shows limited partnership or company limited has ownership right.
  2. Other asset which must include details of asset and the value of asset that will be used to invest.
  3. The agreement that shareholder allow the asset to be used by the company for paid up share.

Q103: Before incorporation date of my new company, I've paid related expenses for this company setting up such as travelling cost, consulting , etc. but it's under my own name, is it possible to reimburse from this newly set up company?

Panwa: Yes, you can reimburse from your newly set up company if you have declared into the registration form and this amount can be a part of capital fund and also can use as tax deductable expenses.
