About UnionSPACE
Business in Thailand is rarely a single-discipline problem.
UnionSPACE is an independent professional services firm advising foreign investors and operating businesses on the legal, tax, regulatory and practical issues that arise when establishing and running a business in Thailand.
Our role is not simply to complete a filing. We help clients understand the structure, consequences and sequence of decisions required to move from an investment plan to an operating business.
Our people
Local people. Multidisciplinary capability.
UnionSPACE is built around an on-the-ground team. Our people bring together corporate, accounting, tax, immigration, regulatory, client service and business operations capabilities, allowing us to coordinate complex matters through one accountable local platform.
Our position
We advise on the business as a whole, not the filing in isolation.
Foreign investment decisions interact. Shareholding affects licensing. Licensing affects premises. Premises can affect tax, immigration and operational readiness. Staffing decisions affect payroll, work authorisation and employment compliance. Importing a product can trigger an entirely different regulatory framework.
UnionSPACE was built around that reality. We bring the relevant workstreams together so the client can make decisions with a clearer view of the legal structure, regulatory path, tax consequences, implementation requirements and ongoing obligations.
Where an authority, licensed professional or specialist must make an independent determination, we distinguish that role clearly. Our work is to assess, structure, prepare and coordinate the professional work required for the engagement.

A coordinated platform for entering, operating and expanding a business.
Corporate & Regulatory
Corporate compliance, business licences, registrations, trademarks and regulatory coordination for companies operating in Thailand.
Accounting & Tax
Bookkeeping, tax filing, payroll support and ongoing financial compliance designed to continue after the initial business setup is complete.
People, Immigration & EOR
Visa and work-permit support, payroll administration and Employer of Record solutions for businesses employing talent in Thailand.
Trade & Product Regulation
Importer-of-record support and regulatory workstreams involving FDA, NBTC and other product or market-access requirements.
Business Infrastructure
Registered offices, serviced offices, meeting facilities and practical local infrastructure that allow an overseas business to operate on the ground.
Our operating standard
Advice should be clear enough to act on.
We aim to give clients a decision framework, not a list of forms. That means identifying what is legally available, what is commercially sensible, what assumptions must be tested and what must happen next.
Structure before execution
We first establish what the client is trying to achieve, then assess the available structures and regulatory consequences before implementation begins.
One accountable point of coordination
Where several workstreams are involved, our team coordinates them as a single engagement rather than leaving the client to manage disconnected providers.
Continuity after setup
Our relationship is designed to continue into accounting, tax, payroll, compliance, workspace and operational support as the business develops.
“The value of good advisory work is not the number of documents produced. It is the number of avoidable problems resolved before they become expensive.”
How we work
A disciplined process from first question to implementation.
Our engagements are designed around the facts of the client’s business, not around a pre-selected package.
01
Understand the commercial objective
We begin with the business model, ownership, activities, people, customers, capital, timeline and intended operating footprint.
02
Identify the lawful and practical pathways
We assess the corporate, regulatory, tax, immigration and operating implications relevant to the proposed structure.
03
Define responsibilities, costs and sequencing
Before implementation, the client should understand the work required, the assumptions being made, third-party dependencies and the order in which steps should occur.
04
Coordinate implementation
Once engaged, we manage the agreed workstreams and coordinate the relevant internal teams, specialists and official processes.
05
Remain involved after launch
Where required, our accounting, tax, payroll, compliance and business-support teams remain involved after the initial transaction is complete.
Regional platform
Local execution with a regional perspective.
Cross-border businesses increasingly need decisions to work across more than one jurisdiction. UnionSPACE combines its Thailand platform with regional offices and partner capabilities so clients can coordinate expansion without restarting the advisory process in every market.
Thailand presence
Our Thailand network includes Bangkok, Pattaya, Hat Yai and Chiang Mai, giving clients access to local business infrastructure as well as professional support.

Who we support
Built for businesses that need more than incorporation.
Our clients include foreign investors entering Thailand, established international groups building local operations, manufacturers and traders dealing with licensing and import requirements, technology and service companies hiring local teams, and entrepreneurs who need an accountable local platform.
We are particularly useful where several issues intersect—for example, a foreign-owned company that also needs a regulatory licence, a registered business office, local accounting, foreign staff, payroll and an import pathway.
UnionSPACE
A local team for decisions that carry long-term consequences.
Tell us what you intend to do in Thailand, who will own the business and how you expect it to operate. We can identify the corporate, tax, regulatory and operational questions that should be addressed first.
UnionSPACE is an independent professional services firm and is not a government authority. Where a matter requires determination by a regulator, authority, licensed professional or other independent party, that decision remains with the relevant party.
