Corporate legal changes often affect the accounts and tax too — a capital increase, a share transfer or a change of authorised signatory, for example. With legal and accounting working together, the legal documents and the accounting records stay consistent from the start.
- Registration is subject to the registrar’s review. MMN helps prepare complete documents to reduce the chance of corrections, but cannot guarantee the outcome.
- Nothing on this page is a legal opinion on a specific case; every engagement starts with a review of your company’s facts and documents.

Frequently asked questions
Which changes must be registered with the DBD?
For example, changes to directors or directors’ signing authority, the head-office address, registered capital, objectives and the articles of association. Each has its own steps, required resolutions and legal registration deadlines; the MMN team can help check what your case requires.
When must a company hold a shareholders’ meeting?
At a minimum, a shareholders’ meeting must approve the financial statements within 4 months of the year-end, and some key matters — such as a capital increase or amending the articles — need a special resolution of shareholders where the law requires. Notice and voting requirements follow the law and the company’s articles.
Does MMN advise on labour law?
MMN can help with the basics — employment contracts, work rules and severance calculations under the labour protection law — together with our payroll team. For complex disputes, we can help you assess the issues and the next steps.
What should foreign-owned companies watch out for?
A company that qualifies as a “foreigner” under the Foreign Business Act may be restricted from certain businesses and may need a Foreign Business Licence/Certificate or another applicable permission or exemption; foreign staff may need work authorisation, subject to exceptions. Set the structure up correctly from the start — see our guide to foreign-owned companies in Thailand.
