Before commissioning this work

Start with the real commercial activity. Registration of a legal entity and permission to carry on a restricted activity are different questions, particularly where foreign ownership is involved. Before reserving a name or preparing a filing, describe the goods or services, customers and intended operating arrangements. Obtain advice on the relevant foreign-business and sector rules rather than selecting shareholders solely to match a generic package.

BOI promotion is not a substitute label for incorporation. Eligibility depends on the proposed activity and programme conditions, while DBD registration establishes the entity through its own requirements. A licence or exemption may involve another assessment. Do not use nominee arrangements to bypass ownership restrictions; ask for a lawful structure supported by the actual ownership and management facts.

Post-registration work should be planned explicitly. Office permission, accounting, tax registration, corporate banking and foreign-worker arrangements involve distinct evidence and decision-makers. A bank can request additional records after incorporation, and an employee’s immigration or work application is not automatically approved by company registration. Compare written proposals by the filings and advice they actually cover, including exclusions and authority charges, rather than by an unsupported capital or completion promise.

Thailand deposited its instrument of accession to the 1961 Apostille Convention on 2026-06-30, and the Convention enters into force for Thailand on 28 February 2027. Before that date, a Thai apostille cannot replace required authentication. Confirm whether the recipient requires translation, consular legalisation or another certificate; not every document needs notarisation or embassy authentication.

How it works for Phra Khanong District, Bangkok clients

  1. 1. Review activity and ownership

    Describe what the company will actually do and who will own and manage it. Check foreign-business restrictions and any activity-specific licence before assuming registration permits operations.

  2. 2. Choose the structure and filing route

    Consult current DBD requirements for the selected entity. Treat BOI promotion, a foreign-business licence or another exemption as a separate eligibility decision, not an automatic incorporation benefit.

  3. 3. Prepare authorised filing records

    Confirm names, signatory authority, office evidence and capital arrangements. Follow the current filing and identity-verification instructions, resolving inconsistencies before submission.

  4. 4. Arrange post-registration obligations

    Review tax registration, accounting, banking and any employee authorisation separately. Confirm which follow-on tasks are commissioned; registration alone does not guarantee a bank account, promotion or work permit.

FAQ — Phra Khanong District, Bangkok

Q. Can every business be wholly foreign-owned?

No universal ownership permission is claimed. Assess the actual activity and applicable restrictions, licences, exemptions or promotion conditions before deciding the shareholding structure.

Q. Does DBD registration include BOI approval?

No. Incorporation and investment promotion are separate processes. A registered entity still needs to meet the criteria for any promoted activity or other permission it seeks.

Q. Is VAT registration automatic?

No. Tax registration obligations depend on the business and applicable rules. Review them with the Revenue Department or a qualified adviser instead of assuming every company follows the same package.

Q. Is there one minimum capital for every company?

Do not use a universal figure. Capital questions depend on the entity, activity, licensing, promotion and any employment or immigration requirements being assessed.

Q. Is there a staffed office in Phra Khanong District, Bangkok?

For clients in Phra Khanong District, Bangkok, arrange document pickup or delivery with staff before sending originals. The only staffed offices are Bangkok (Lat Phrao 95) and Khon Kaen (680/45 Na Mueang Road); this area listing does not claim a local branch.

Q. Can I obtain a quote before sending originals?

Send complete, legible scans and the recipient’s instructions through LINE @NYCLI or email. Ask for an itemised written quote and confirmed arrangements before commissioning.

  • Submitting an uncertified photocopy instead of the original — the receiving office will not review it and you rejoin the queue.
  • Skipping MFA legalization before the embassy step — this costs multiple trips and several weeks.

Scope of work: Document and advisory services

We scope document and advisory services around the outcome you need at destination, confirm the exact document list for your case, then run every step for you.

This service fits you when

  • A Thai or foreign authority asked for documents you have never prepared before
  • You have a deadline and cannot risk a rejected or incomplete submission
  • Your documents must stay consistent across several offices or countries
  • You want one team to advise first and then execute, instead of coordinating vendors

When another route is the right one

  • If a shorter or cheaper route exists for your case, we tell you before you commit
  • If another authority owns the step, we explain who to approach and in what order
  • If your documents are still valid or already sufficient, we will not re-do them

What the service includes

  • Requirement check against the receiving office before work begins
  • A written, case-specific document checklist
  • Preparation, translation and certification handled end to end
  • Progress updates and rework if an officer asks for changes
  • Delivery of digital files and originals

What is not included

  • Government and courier fees charged by the receiving authority (billed at cost, always quoted before we start)
  • Any guarantee of approval by a government office or embassy — that decision stays with the officer in charge
  • Sourcing original documents that only you can request in person

Most cases need more than one step. Here is how the surrounding work connects, so you can plan the whole chain instead of discovering a missing certification at the last minute.

We work as advisers, not only as a document-running agency

Our team has worked on documents, translation and legalisation for more than 15 years, combining notarial attorneys licensed by the Lawyers Council of Thailand with translators the receiving authorities accept. Every case starts with advice on the correct route and only then moves to execution — we do not simply run whatever is handed to us.

Before we start — mapping the document route

We confirm whether your file ends at an Apostille or still needs the embassy, whether a freshly issued copy is required, and which form of translation the receiving authority accepts. This is where most time is saved, because it is where most people choose wrongly and restart.

While preparing — consistency checks

We match the spelling of your name against the passport, check the issue date against the validity window the destination applies, verify stamps and signatures, and confirm the translation matches the original line by line.

While filing — coordination with the authorities

We file in the order each authority expects, follow the queue, and report status as it moves. If an authority asks for more paperwork, you hear about it immediately, together with the options for fixing it.

After delivery — practical guidance

We explain which bodies this set can be filed with, how to store the originals, and how many certified sets to request up front if you expect to use them again, so you do not repeat the whole chain later.

Cases where advice up front changes the outcome

  • A file was already returned once and the real cause has to be identified before refiling.
  • The destination only says "certified translation" without stating which form of certification it accepts.
  • The applicant is upcountry or abroad, so the power of attorney and courier plan must be arranged carefully.
  • The name on an older document does not match the current passport because of a name change or a different transliteration.

If you are unsure which route your case takes, send photos of the documents and name the destination country or authority. We map the sequence and the paperwork first; you then decide whether to run it yourself or hand it over.
