Thailand's Nominee Crackdown: Is Your Business Structure at Risk

Thailand's Nominee Crackdown: Is Your Business Structure at Risk

Thailand's regulators are actively cross-checking business registrations against tax records, land ownership data, and other agencies to identify nominee arrangements, and the number of flagged companies has already dropped sharply. Chiara from Siam Legal breaks down what's changed, which sectors are seeing the most scrutiny, and why structures with foreign shareholdings just under the legal threshold are now drawing attention. If you have any foreign involvement in a Thai company, this is the moment to review how it's set up.   𝐓𝐚𝐥𝐤 𝐭𝐨 𝐚 𝐥𝐚𝐰𝐲𝐞𝐫 - 𝐀𝐋𝐋 𝐋𝐄𝐆𝐀𝐋 𝐇𝐄𝐋𝐏 𝐇𝐄𝐑𝐄 🔗 https://www.siam-legal.com/services/thailand-legal-services.php [https://www.siam-legal.com/services/thailand-legal-services.php] 𝐀𝐋𝐋 𝐕𝐈𝐒𝐀𝐒 𝐇𝐄𝐑𝐄 🔗 https://www.siam-legal.com/legal_services/thailand-visa-services.php [https://www.siam-legal.com/legal_services/thailand-visa-services.php]   ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ SIAM LEGAL INTERNATIONAL (Bangkok Office) 18th Floor, Unit 1806 Two Pacific Place, 142 Sukhumvit Rd, Khlong Toei, Bangkok 10110, Thailand Phone: TH: +66 2254 8900 Email: info@siam-legal.com Website: https://www.siam-legal.com/ [https://www.siam-legal.com/]   ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Follow us across platforms: 📌Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/SiamLegal/ [https://www.facebook.com/SiamLegal/] https://www.facebook.com/SiamLegal/📌Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/siamlegal/ [https://www.instagram.com/siamlegal/] https://www.instagram.com/siamlegal/📌X: https://x.com/SiamLegal [https://x.com/SiamLegal] https://x.com/SiamLegal📌TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@siamlegal [https://www.tiktok.com/@siamlegal] https://www.tiktok.com/@siamlegal📌LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/siam-legal/ [https://www.linkedin.com/company/siam-legal/] https://www.linkedin.com/company/siam-legal/📌YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@SiamLegal [https://www.youtube.com/@SiamLegal]

Bangkok Resale Property Market: What Expats Should Know Before Buying

Bangkok has hundreds of thousands of resale condos sitting on the market, with the average unit taking over two years to sell. This episode unpacks what that actually means for expat buyers, including why a long listing time doesn't automatically signal a bargain, why online prices often don't reflect what properties are actually selling for, and the legal checks that matter before signing anything. A useful reality check for anyone browsing Bangkok property listings for the first time.

Assault Charges and Visa Revocation in Thailand: What Tourists Need to Know

A tuk tuk fare dispute that turned physical ended with an assault charge and an immediate visa revocation. This episode breaks down why that outcome is more common than tourists expect, how Thai immigration authorities can cancel your right to stay independently of any criminal case, and why incidents caught on camera tend to accelerate the entire process. The bigger takeaway is that no disagreement over a small amount of money is worth what can follow.   𝐓𝐚𝐥𝐤 𝐭𝐨 𝐚 𝐥𝐚𝐰𝐲𝐞𝐫 - 𝐀𝐋𝐋 𝐋𝐄𝐆𝐀𝐋 𝐇𝐄𝐋𝐏 𝐇𝐄𝐑𝐄 🔗 https://www.siam-legal.com/services/thailand-legal-services.php [https://www.siam-legal.com/legal_services/thailand-visa-services.php] 𝐀𝐋𝐋 𝐕𝐈𝐒𝐀𝐒 𝐇𝐄𝐑𝐄 🔗 https://www.siam-legal.com/legal_services/thailand-visa-services.php [https://www.siam-legal.com/legal_services/thailand-visa-services.php] 𝘈𝘴𝘬 𝘛𝘩𝘢𝘪𝘭𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘌𝘹𝘱𝘢𝘵𝘴 𝘞𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘓𝘪𝘧𝘦 𝘐𝘴 𝘙𝘦𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘺 𝘓𝘪𝘬𝘦 🔗 https://www.facebook.com/groups/howtoenterthailand [https://www.facebook.com/groups/howtoenterthailand]   ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ SIAM LEGAL INTERNATIONAL (Bangkok Office) 18th Floor, Unit 1806 Two Pacific Place, 142 Sukhumvit Rd, Khlong Toei, Bangkok 10110, Thailand Phone: TH: +66 2254 8900 Email: info@siam-legal.com Website: https://www.siam-legal.com/ [https://www.siam-legal.com/]   ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Follow us across platforms: 📌Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/SiamLegal/ [https://www.facebook.com/SiamLegal/] https://www.facebook.com/SiamLegal/📌Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/siamlegal/ [https://www.instagram.com/siamlegal/] https://www.instagram.com/siamlegal/📌X: https://x.com/SiamLegal [https://x.com/SiamLegal] https://x.com/SiamLegal📌TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@siamlegal [https://www.tiktok.com/@siamlegal] https://www.tiktok.com/@siamlegal📌LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/siam-legal/ [https://www.linkedin.com/company/siam-legal/] https://www.linkedin.com/company/siam-legal/📌YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@SiamLegal [https://www.youtube.com/@SiamLegal]

Working Illegally in Thailand: What Every Expat and Tourist Needs to Know

Fifteen foreign workers found during routine checks at two Bangkok pubs. Some were in jobs reserved for Thai nationals, others were working outside their permit scope. This episode uses that case as a starting point to explain what actually counts as illegal work in Thailand, why a valid visa is not the same as permission to work, and why even informal roles like promoting events or helping at a venue can cross the line. Worth knowing before taking on any role, paid or unpaid.   Learn more about Thailand Work Permit 🌐https://www.siam-legal.com/Business-in-Thailand/thailand-work-permit.php [https://www.siam-legal.com/Business-in-Thailand/thailand-work-permit.php]   ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ SIAM LEGAL INTERNATIONAL (Bangkok Office) 18th Floor, Unit 1806 Two Pacific Place, 142 Sukhumvit Rd, Khlong Toei, Bangkok 10110, Thailand Phone: TH: +66 2254 8900 Email: info@siam-legal.com Website: https://www.siam-legal.com/ [https://www.siam-legal.com/]   ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Follow us across platforms: 📌Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/SiamLegal/ [https://www.facebook.com/SiamLegal/] https://www.facebook.com/SiamLegal/📌Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/siamlegal/ [https://www.instagram.com/siamlegal/] https://www.instagram.com/siamlegal/📌X: https://x.com/SiamLegal [https://x.com/SiamLegal] https://x.com/SiamLegal📌TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@siamlegal [https://www.tiktok.com/@siamlegal] https://www.tiktok.com/@siamlegal📌LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/siam-legal/ [https://www.linkedin.com/company/siam-legal/] https://www.linkedin.com/company/siam-legal/📌YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@SiamLegal [https://www.youtube.com/@SiamLegal]
