The Thai authoroties require companies doing business in specific industries to obtain licence certificates.

Board Of Investment Application For Promotion
Thailand's Board of Investment Promotion (BOI) is increasingly active in securing inward investment into Thailand. The BOI is promoting the following five target industries:

• Agriculture and agricultural products.
• Fashion, particularly leather, garments, and jewellery
• Automotive assembly and parts and components industries
• ICT and electronics industries
• High value added services such as call centres, regional operating headquarters, and high value added printing and packaging.

There are considerable advantages to achieving BOI promotion status, but the application process needs to be managed with care to maximise the chances of approval. Contact us if you are thinking of applying.

Customs Card
Businesses who wish to import or export goods from Thailand are required to hold a valid Customs card.

Alcohol Licence
If your business wishes to retail alcoholic beverages, it will need an Alcohol Licence. There are two types, a licence to sell alcohol products made in Thailand only, and a licence to sell alcohol products from any country.

Food And Beverage Licence
Hotels, restaurants, cafes, and bars must have a valid Food and Beverage Licence to sell food and non-alcoholic drinks.

We also deal with factory licences, VAT registration, obtaining Tax ID numbers, Social Security Fund registration, and all types of special licences. Our Legal Services Division would be happy to discuss your licencing requirements.
