Service in Thailand
Greeting
For Companies Considering Expansion into Thailand
Known as the “Land of Smiles,” Thailand and Japan have long maintained strong and positive relationships across a wide range of fields, including the economy, culture, politics, and diplomacy.
From an investment perspective, Thailand is highly regarded among ASEAN countries for its clear legal framework and practical regulatory environment, allowing companies to establish operations with relatively small capital and within a short timeframe. As a result, many Japanese companies—across both the manufacturing and service sectors—have chosen Thailand as their overseas expansion destination.
At our firm, we provide tailored support to each client, regardless of company size, industry, or prior overseas business experience.
Leveraging our extensive hands-on experience in Thailand and ASEAN countries, we support the mid- to long-term continuity and growth of businesses in Thailand, across ASEAN, and in Japan.
For companies that have already established operations in Thailand, we also place strong emphasis on post-entry support, including local business management and international tax matters at the Japanese headquarters level.
If you have any concerns regarding business operations in Thailand or ASEAN countries, please feel free to contact us for an initial consultation.
Overview
A Pioneer Among Japanese Accounting Firms in Bangkok
Our Thailand office was established in 2004 and has since built a strong track record as one of the pioneering Japanese accounting firms in Bangkok, supporting the market entry and business start-up of numerous Japanese manufacturing companies in Thailand.
As business environments and industry structures have evolved over time, our scope of support has expanded beyond manufacturing. Today, we assist a wide range of industries, including service-oriented businesses, in managing and operating their businesses in Thailand.
Going beyond accounting and tax services, we take into account foreign ownership regulations, legal frameworks, and local business practices, and provide comprehensive support tailored to each client’s specific circumstances. Through this approach, we help our clients design optimal business structures and achieve stable and sustainable business operations in Thailand.
