395. What are the legal precautions for a foreigner setting up a Thai corporate entity solely to buy real estate?
Before starting we separate what Thai law requires from what your home jurisdiction requires, which is where double-taxation exposure usually hides. Quotations separate government fees from professional fees line by line, so nothing appears on the invoice that was not in the quote.

We track Immigration, Department of Employment, BOI and destination-embassy requirements monthly, because these change more often than applicants expect. If the receiving authority rejects a file for a reason attributable to our work, we correct and re-file it at no additional professional fee.
