    Company Dissolution in Thailand
    2024-08-20

    Dissolution is the process of de-registering a company from the company registry at the Department of Business Development (“DBD”). When considering the life cycle of a business operation, the voluntary dissolution by the shareholders appears to be the usual way to end the company’s operations. There are several circumstances that will lead companies to the dissolution and subsequently, the liquidation process. Under Sections 1236 and 1237 of the CCC, a limited company may be dissolved by the following causes:

    Winding up of a private limited company in Thailand takes longer time than registering it. The Civil and Commercial Code (“CCC”) of Thailand is the main legislation that sets out the requirements and procedures for winding up of the company as summarized below. The Articles of Associations of the company and the Shareholders Agreement (if any) made amongst the shareholders of the company may also set out requirements in addition to those under the CCC.

    2024-02-13

    2023 was a year of political and economic uncertainty in Thailand, especially for the Thai stock market, when a number of companies in financial distress aggressively sought rescue by engaging in a formal court-supervised restructuring process (known as “Rehabilitation Proceedings”).

    Chapter 20 - Insolvency
    2024-02-08

    Insolvency matters in Thailand are regulated by the Bankruptcy Act, B.E. 2483 (1940) as amended (the “Bankruptcy Act”). The authoritative body that wields judicial power in these matters is the Central Bankruptcy Court (the “Court”). The core insolvency procedures are: (i) bankruptcy proceedings; and (ii) rehabilitation proceedings. Bankruptcy proceedings are legal procedures overseen by the Court and the official receiver, with a key objective of gathering debtor's assets to be distributed as repayment of debt among the creditors.

    Business Rehabilitation Proceedings in Thailand

    Overview of Rehabilitation Proceedings

    The primary goal of business rehabilitation proceedings is to provide debtors who are facing insolvency with various mechanisms to address their financial difficulties. This includes restructuring their liabilities and assets while also ensuring that creditors receive repayment equal to or greater than the amount they would have received if the debtor had been declared bankrupt by the court.

    Why businesses should choose rehabilitation
    2023-11-21

    Since the outbreak of Covid-19, the Thai economy has experienced a prolonged shutdown, leading to the need for bankruptcy and rehabilitation processes to address the financial challenges faced by businesses. However, there is a common misconception among the public that rehabilitation is synonymous with bankruptcy. This misunderstanding arises from the fact that rehabilitation provisions are enshrined in the same legislation as the Bankruptcy Act B.E.2483 (1940), leading to the belief that rehabilitation is equivalent to bankruptcy.

    “Prospects of Success” and “Good Faith” in Thai Business Rehabilitation Petitions
    2024-06-11

    Over the past decade, business rehabilitation proceedings in Thai courts have received a great deal of attention from debtors and creditors, especially after the COVID-19 pandemic. Business rehabilitation and bankruptcy proceedings have different objectives in court. As a result, Thai courts have a different perspective and set of criteria for considering and approving rehabilitation proceedings than for bankruptcy petitions. Both proceedings are outlined in the Bankruptcy Act B.E 2483 (1940). This article mainly discusses in-court business rehabilitation proceedings.
