What the 10 November 2026 Cabinet Means for Data Centre Developers, Durian Exporters and Steel Pipe Makers and Importers in Thailand
The Cabinet met on Tuesday 10 November B.E. 2569 (2026). Nothing it approved is law yet. Its main decision is a national policy on data centres. Until the detailed rules are announced, the approvals that data centre projects need are likely to stay slow. The Cabinet also cleared a draft mandatory standard for steel pipes, new fruit export protocols with China, a special government holiday on 16 December and the signing of a mediation convention.
What the 14 October 2026 Cabinet Means for Employers, Steel Importers, Government Suppliers and Landowners in Thailand
The Cabinet met on Wednesday 14 October B.E. 2569 (2026), moved from Tuesday because of the public holiday. Every employer should read item 1. Importers and users of coated steel sheet should read item 2.
What the 6 October 2026 Cabinet Means for Trade Fair Exhibitors, EEC Investors, Rail Operators and Financial Institutions in Thailand
The Council of Ministers (the Cabinet) met on Tuesday 6 October B.E. 2569 (2026). None of the draft instruments it approved is yet in force. A draft has no legal effect until it is published in the Royal Gazette, the official journal in which Thai legislation is promulgated (and, for a draft Act, until it has also passed Parliament and received royal assent). It then takes effect on the date its own text specifies.
What the 29 September 2026 Cabinet Means for Solar and Battery Importers, Online Businesses and Investors in Thailand
The Council of Ministers met on Tuesday 29 September B.E. 2569 (2026). It approved several draft instruments of direct relevance to businesses operating in Thailand, none of which is yet in force. Under Thai law, a draft instrument acquires binding effect only upon publication in the Royal Gazette, the official journal in which legislation is promulgated. This alert sets out, for each decision, the businesses concerned, its current legal status and the steps we recommend.
What the 8 September Cabinet Means for Companies, Investors, and Employers in Thailand
The Thai Cabinet met on Tuesday 8 September B.E. 2569 (2026), chaired by Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Transport Phiphat Ratchakitprakarn. This alert sets out the five decisions of most consequence to companies operating in or investing into Thailand, and states in each case whether the decision is now operative or remains a draft.
What the 18 August Cabinet Means for Foreign Investors, Employers, and Cross-Border Businesses in Thailand
Nothing decided this week is yet in force, but two threads are worth acting on early: a step toward letting the Permanent Court of Arbitration hold proceedings in Thailand, which speaks to where you seat disputes, and a package of four labour measures that would pull seafarers and home-based workers into social protection and set new penalties for employers.
Hire-Purchase in Thailand: Repossess by the Rules, or Not at All
Hire-purchase looks simple until the hirer stops paying. Then the paperwork and the procedure decide everything, and an owner who moves on instinct rather than on the rules can turn a recoverable debt into a losing case.
Sale and Purchase Disputes: Characterise the Contract, or Lose at the Threshold
When a sale goes wrong, the client wants to talk about who broke the deal. The first question a litigator asks is narrower and more decisive: what kind of contract was this? In Thai law, the answer sets the remedy, the evidence, and often the outcome.
In a Thai Land Dispute, the Title Deed Decides the Case Before It Starts
When a client comes to us about a piece of land, the instinct is to start with the argument. We start with the paper. In a Thai land dispute the title document is not background, it is the case. It tells you what right the client actually holds, what they have to prove, and how long they have to act.
