Change Company’s Name In Thailand

        If you want to change the name of your present company, then you must register the change with the Department of Business Development (DBD).

Additionally, the corporate seal that typically contains the full name of the company should be updated.

How To Register The Change In The Company’s Name

• Reserve the new name and order a new seal for the company

• Publish a notice requesting a shareholder’s meeting in a local newspaper. The notice must be sent by the registered mail to all the shareholders.

• After the meeting, the change of the company’s name shall be officially approved. The change will be further documented in the government forms that will be registered with DBD, mostly in two weeks, right from the date of the meeting.

  • VAT registration (Porpor.01); three copies
