Must You Include “Company, Limited”, In Your Thai Business Sign?

.

Ex. What happens if an estate agent in Thailand lies, double deals, cheats or misrepresents…? “Can you count on and trust every single estate agent in Thailand?”

If you started a business here in Thailand, you probably did so by setting up a Thai company limited. All Thai limited companies are required to have and to report to the authorities a registered address, pursuant to Section 1148 of the Civil and Commercial Code (the “CCC”). And, pursuant to Section 14 of The Offences Relating to Registered Partnerships, Limited Partnerships, Limited Companies, Associations and Foundations Act (1956) and as amended (the “Juristic Persons Offences Act”) if a Thai limited company does not comply with Section 1148 of the CCC, such company will be subject to a fine of up to Thai baht twenty thousand.
