Siam-Legal.com would be a good place to start. They are a member of the American/Thai Chamber of Commerce.

These are just agents, yes? Not immigration attorneys? Do they help with US-Thai Treaty of Amity type matters as they pertain to business/ltr visas and work permits? Thanks.

@Lawrence *******
the treaty of Amity has nothing to do with immigration. It deals with business setup for US citizens only.

I am a US citizen looking to register as a sole-proprietor, then using that as a means to obtain a business visa and work permit. So yes, it is related to immigration. Since I can register as a sole-proprietor with 100% ownership as per the Treaty, and from my understanding, am not subject to the same financial requirement for sole-proprietor registration. I'm just not an attorney with experience in such matters.

@Lawrence *******
check with Siam-Legal.com as they are very knowledgeable on this business setup detail, but there are financial requirements basically equal to the work permit financial requirement of bt2million in registered capital, but the time frame in which it is required to be met is different.

Yes. It sounds that you do need specific legal advice, not just visa help. Sorry can’t advise for that in Bangkok. Perhaps others can.
