Foreign Investment Law in Pattaya — About us

Service for Pattaya, Chonburi, and Rayong — the heart of the Eastern Economic Corridor (EEC) and Thailand's largest industrial base, and an investment hub for Chinese, Japanese, Russian, and Korean investors. We act for factories in leading industrial estates such as Amata City Chonburi/Rayong, Laem Chabang, Map Ta Phut, Eastern Seaboard, Pinthong, and Hemaraj (WHA) — labor and termination cases, import-export customs, factory environmental matters, plus real estate and foreign-national cases.

Pattaya, Chonburi, and Rayong sit in the EEC zone with special investment incentives. We set up companies inside industrial estates, obtain Smart Visa and BOI promotion, structure EEC entities, resolve factory labor and termination disputes, handle import customs for machinery and raw materials, and manage factory environmental and safety cases. Our team works in Thai, English, and Chinese — suited to foreign operators in the Eastern region.
