How is the Thai SPV incorporated?

Following the general guidelines and requirements for company registration in Thailand is mandatory when opening a special purpose vehicle. Because this is a locally registered company, investors follow a set of mandatory steps, and the conditions set forth in the Thai company law.

The following steps are needed to open a company in Thailand:

  1. Choose the business form: most commonly, this will be the limited liability company when investors set up an SPV;
  2. Prepare for registration: included herein are all the essential steps, from structuring the business, to preparing the capital, to drafting the incorporation documents; this is a step during which our registration agents provide full support;
  3. Register the business: the legal entity is registered with the Thai authorities; registration fees are paid at this point;
  4. Licensing and the start of operations: once the business is registered, it can apply for additional permits and licenses (as may be needed), it can employ staff and commence the activities according to its special purpose.

As a Thai registered company, some of the taxes the SPV can be subject to include the following:

  • The 20% corporate income tax (in general);
  • A lower, 15% tax for small or medium companies (in some cases, based on a calculation of its net taxable profits);
  • Value-added tax with a standard rate of 10% (should the company provide goods and services that are subject to this tax);
  • Social security contributions for its employees, as well as other applicable taxes.
