NO&T Thailand Legal Update
Background
Currently, the Thai government is working on the draft ministerial regulation on prescribing service businesses which do not require a foreign business license No. 5 of … (“Draft”) to exempt three (3) further specific businesses from the ambit of restricted business under the Foreign Business Act of 1999 (“FBA”), i.e.: i) telecommunications services; ii) treasury centers; and iii) software development businesses. The purposes of the exemption are (i) to reduce the redundancy in regulatory requirements between the Department of Business Development (“DBD”), which is the regulator with general oversight in respect of restrictions on foreign-owned businesses, and other regulators exercising specific supervision such businesses, and (ii) to promote an investment-friendly environment for foreign investors in Thailand.
