Industries — Technology & Software

Setup and run a technology company in Thailand.

The tech sector demands high velocity, rapid talent deployment, and compliant in-country monetization. Foreign software vendors and SaaS providers face strict Foreign Business Act restrictions, complex cross-border software billing rules, and fierce local engineering competition. Branch addresses these barriers through helping to find tax incentives, permits, and EOR onboarding with local billing rails, and master digital distribution co-ventures.

Industry Challenges

Speed to Market In a fast-moving sector, waiting 6 to 12 months for standalone entity incorporation and BOI licensing causes missed enterprise sales cycles and competitor land-grabs.
Finding Resellers Overseas software vendors struggle to identify trusted local distributors and resellers, and lack culturally fluent, in-country Tier-1/Tier-2 technical support and customer success nodes.
Local Billing Foreign tech companies cannot legally issue local Thai tax invoices, bill enterprise customers in local currency, or collect local payments directly without establishing local corporate infrastructure or compliant merchant rails.
Building Teams Finding, vetting, employing, and payrolling high-performing local tech sales directors, solutions architects, and developers compliantly without falling foul of local labor protection laws or 4:1 foreign ratio rules.

In-Country Billing & Merchant Setup: Establishing compliant local corporate banking gateways and billing structures to enable direct local currency enterprise invoicing, payment processing, and VAT compliance.

Local Invoicing & Billing-as-a-Service: Acting as the local billing and collection node for foreign tech firms — issuing compliant local currency invoices, collecting local enterprise payments, managing local tax withholdings, and remitting funds seamlessly.

Localized Support Node & Device Procurement: Managing enterprise hardware procurement, and setting up localized PDPA-compliant customer support data nodes.
