Administrative & Government

 

Thailand’s rapid development over the last several decades has led to drastic changes in business practices as well as unprecedented institutional changes in governance and regulatory mechanisms. Many industries and business sectors are now subject to an increasingly layered regulatory landscape which has resulted in a greater number of issues that need to be addressed by legal experts.

For your business, it is imperative that you hold an insight into and understand how the Thai Government works as all business dealings and commercial transactions must comply with prescribed regulatory and administrative guidelines.

At Korpniti, our lawyers can assist clients in their dealings with governmental departments and administrative agencies in a number of different capacities, including as an advocate, an advisor, a facilitator, and as an intermediary negotiating on a client’s behalf. We can help clients comply with regulatory requirements and policies, deal with licensing and governmental approvals, and assist with administrative disputes and proceedings.

We strive to cultivate and maintain strong relationships with members of Thai governmental and business communities, including academics, business leaders, civil servants, and lawmakers in order to remain up to date with the latest laws and policies passed in the Kingdom.
