Registering a company and opening a corporate bank account in Thailand

One promising business destination is Thailand, which has low investment risk and a stable political situation.

Most of Thailand's commercial sectors are in the process of development, which suggests that it is relatively easy for new companies to enter. Nevertheless, in order to work legally, foreign entrepreneurs need to register a business in the country, as well as open a corporate account at a local bank. Intelligent Solution Group can help you to avoid all the pitfalls. 

Our company offers a service of business opening in Thailand for foreigners, for whom the question of international business without restrictions is acute. We take care of issues related to tax residency, business structuring and, in general, corporate services.

Opening a business in Thailand (registering a company in Thailand with a bank account)

The country has many financial instruments for business and consumer protection, which is why it attracts foreign investors. The main advantage is that Thailand is not offshore (the jurisdiction is not on the EU and FATF black lists), you can open an account with one of the local banks and not be tied to a particular payment system.  Thai banks offer attractive rates and allow transactions in 16 world currencies, including RMB. In addition, registering a business in Thailand will allow: 

  • Expose the business to the Asian market. 
  • Enjoy comprehensive services - asset management, investment services and a package of banking products. 
  • Get the simplest possible administration of the company. 
  • Not to be tied to the residency requirements of the main shareholders and directors.
  • Have control over the movement of funds from anywhere in the world with convenient online banking (available in English).
  • Exempt from VAT, import or export duties. 

"Is it possible to open a corporate bank account for a firm in Thailand?" - this question is acute for those who are going to optimise their business or continue to run their business without being adversely affected by outside factors. The practice of our clients shows that it is almost impossible to open an account or obtain a licence on your own due to a number of reasons (ignorance of local laws, language barrier, etc.), so it is easier to entrust the process to professionals. 

We close all issues related to the assets of companies operating internationally, provide legal protection to the business and increase the loyalty of clients and partners.  In addition, we know exactly how to obtain a second citizenship to open new prospects for the development of your own business.
