What is a reasonable registered capital amount?
Objectively speaking, there is no "standard answer" that applies to every Thai company. The registered capital should be worked backwards from four things at the same time: the statutory minimum capital for foreign market access, the arrangements for foreign employees, the financing structure of the BOI project, and the ODI on the China side together with the enterprise's actual operating funds. Setting it too high increases the pressure of paying in the capital and of capital verification, while setting it too low may affect the FBL, work permits, or BOI arrangements.
