As of 28 August 2026, businesses in sectors like telecommunications, treasury centres, intra-group services, securities and derivatives no longer need a separate Foreign Business Licence under the FBA — they'll now sit solely under their industry regulator's watch instead.

It's not a loosening of the rules, just fewer of them to juggle. Foreign ownership restrictions in these sectors still apply.

Issariya Vimonrat and Pawee Chawalarat unpack what's changed, and what hasn't.

Online shopping has become the primary way many Thai consumers shop, with Shopee, TikTok Shop and Lazada driving the bulk of online spending. For foreign retailers, the real question is no longer whether to enter the Thai market, but which route — build, borrow, or buy — best fits their business, and how that choice interacts with the Foreign Business Act, consumer protection rules, and data privacy requirements from day one.

In this piece, Issariya Vimonrat and Klakawee Pluemcharoen set out the key legal and commercial considerations for retailers and platforms planning their entry into Thailand.

Thanathip & Partners was delighted to host “Joint Ventures: Before the Problems Happen” at the office of PTT Global Chemical Public Company Limited (PTTGC), bringing together more than 50 participants both onsite and online.

Led by Chawaluck Sivayathorn Araneta, together with Nat Boonjunwetvat and Sita Maneenut, the session explored the full lifecycle of a joint venture — from structuring and governance to managing disagreements, staying in, and getting out — using real-world scenarios to highlight the commercial choices behind the legal drafting.

Thank you to the PTTGC team for the opportunity, engaging discussion, and thoughtful questions throughout the session.

Earth Overshoot Day landed on 8 August this year for Thailand — six days earlier than 2025. If everyone consumed the way we do, we'd need 1.7 Earths to keep up.

So we did something small but real: TP Wear & Share.

Clothes swapping between colleagues has always happened informally around the office — we just turned it into a campaign to make it more fun. Colleagues donated clothes they no longer wore, and each pair submitted a photo of the original and new owner wearing the same piece. No new items bought, no new footprint created — just clothes getting a second life.

The office voted for their favourite transformation, and the winning pair took home a tumbler and a steel straw set — small swaps that keep single-use plastic out of the picture.

Thank you to everyone at Thanathip & Partners who took part.

Wear it. Share it. Make it count.
