Do you know what Foreign Business License is? We are here to help you provide the license. Business laws of Thailand maintain some regulations only for Thai nationals. The foreign investors have to experience many limitations when doing business in Thailand. For protecting the rights of foreign investors, Foreign Business Act of 1999 was introduced. Most of the people think Foreign Business Acts refers to business activities that are carried out by the foreigners. But the truth is that the Foreign Business Act of 1999 highlights the activities that are restricted for the foreigners.<br \/><br \/>A foreign company in Thailand is a firm that has the majority of non-Thai nationals as shareholders. There is some business that is not allowed to be owned by foreigners. These businesses are listed in the Foreign Business Act. In order to operate a business from the restricted category, you must obtain a Foreign Business License.<br \/><br \/>The Foreign Business License is often confused with Foreign Business Certificate. Though both of these are a form of approval to conduct restricted activities. The only difference is that they are applicable to different situations. In simple words, Foreign Business License is a permit. It lets foreign nationals to manage and do business in Thailand that is normally restricted to the foreign nationals.<br \/>Under the Foreign Business License, permission is granted to the foreigner to run a restricted business. On the condition that the business is beneficial for the economy and society of Thailand.<\/p><h2>Who is Considered as Foreigner?<\/h2><p>According to the Foreign Business Act, a foreigner is:<\/p><ul><li>A natural person that does not have a Thai nationality<\/li><li>A juristic person who is not registered in Thailand.<\/li><\/ul><p>These foreigners cannot operate a business in Thailand without permission from the Thai Government.
