How long does it take to close a Thai company?
Short answer
Dissolution is a sequence, not a filing. Shareholders resolve to dissolve, the dissolution and the liquidator are registered with the Department of Business Development, creditors are notified and the accounts are wound up, and the Revenue Department has to be satisfied before the liquidation can be completed and the final registration made.
The registry steps are relatively quick; the tax clearance step is what sets the timetable, and it depends on how clean the company's filing history is. A company that has filed on time, has documentation for its balances and has no VAT irregularities moves far faster than one being tidied up during the wind-up. Dormant companies with years of unfiled returns generally have to be brought current first.
Because the obligations to file continue until the closure is complete, abandoning a company is more expensive than closing it — penalties accrue against a company and its directors. If the intention is to stop trading, start the dissolution deliberately and keep filing while it runs.
