Praphan Tancharoen
Managing Director
Bangkok, Thailand
The team at garudalexes provided clear guidance throughout our BOI application process. Their preliminary benefits analysis helped us understand which incentives applied to our manufacturing project before we committed resources. The timeline they outlined was accurate, and their communication kept us informed at each stage.

James Lockwood
Partnership Director
Singapore / Bangkok
We engaged garudalexes to structure a cross-border joint venture. The structural options assessment was particularly helpful in understanding different approaches under Thai law. The partner agreement drafting was thorough, and the two revision rounds allowed us to incorporate feedback from all stakeholders. While the process took slightly longer than initially estimated due to partner scheduling, the outcome met our requirements.

Siriporn Kasemsuk
Compliance Manager
Chiang Mai, Thailand
Our organisation needed to develop an anti-corruption compliance programme aligned with international standards. The baseline assessment they conducted identified several areas where our existing policies could be strengthened. The training framework and reporting channel design were practical and suited to our operational context.

Apirak Nanthakumar
Finance Director
Bangkok, Thailand
We appreciated the fixed fee structure, which made budgeting straightforward. The BOI application process involved more documentation than we initially anticipated, but the team explained each requirement clearly. Their knowledge of the promotional categories and eligibility criteria was evident throughout the engagement.

Maria Chen
Operations Director
Hong Kong / Bangkok
The joint venture agreement they prepared for our Thai operations was comprehensive and clearly written. The exit mechanism provisions were particularly well-designed, addressing scenarios we had not initially considered. Communication was professional and responsive throughout the process.

Wichai Suksamran
Legal Manager
Bangkok, Thailand
Their approach to compliance programme development was methodical and practical. The internal policy they drafted was customised to our organisational structure rather than being a generic template. The periodic audit advisory they provide has been valuable for ongoing monitoring of our framework implementation.

Success Stories
Case examples illustrating how our services have supported client objectives across different commercial contexts.
Manufacturing Investment Promotion
Technology Components Manufacturing / 6-Month Engagement
Initial Situation
A technology components manufacturer was considering establishing operations in Thailand to serve Southeast Asian markets. The organisation needed to determine whether their proposed project qualified for BOI promotional privileges and understand the application requirements.
Our Approach
We conducted a preliminary benefits analysis, which confirmed eligibility under a promoted category. Following this, we prepared the project plan, compiled supporting documentation, and managed the submission process. Post-approval, we provided compliance advisory addressing reporting requirements.
Outcome
The application was approved within the standard processing timeframe. The client received promotional privileges including corporate income tax exemptions and import duty reductions. The clarity of our documentation supported efficient processing by the BOI review committee.
"The preliminary analysis was particularly valuable. It allowed us to confirm the viability of seeking BOI promotion before committing to the full application process. The team's knowledge of the promotional categories saved us considerable time in project planning."
Cross-Border Distribution Partnership
Retail Distribution Joint Venture / 7-Week Engagement
Initial Situation
Two organisations, one Thai and one regional, were forming a joint venture for retail distribution. They required a partnership structure that balanced operational flexibility with clear governance provisions and addressed potential exit scenarios.
Our Approach
We conducted a structural options assessment examining different partnership models under Thai law. Based on the partners' preferences, we drafted a comprehensive joint venture agreement including governance frameworks, profit-sharing arrangements, and exit mechanisms. Two revision rounds incorporated partner feedback.
Outcome
The partners executed the agreement and commenced operations. The governance framework provided clear procedures for decision-making, which helped prevent disputes during the initial operational period. The exit mechanism provisions offered both parties certainty about dissolution procedures if needed.
"The structural options assessment helped us understand the implications of different partnership models. The agreement itself was thorough without being overly complex, and the revision process allowed us to address concerns from both partner organisations."
Governance Framework Enhancement
Regional Services Organisation / 6-Week Engagement
Initial Situation
A regional services organisation with Thai operations needed to strengthen its anti-corruption compliance framework to meet international standards. The organisation had basic policies in place but required more comprehensive coverage and formal procedures.
Our Approach
We began with a baseline compliance assessment identifying areas for enhancement. We then drafted customised internal policies, developed a training programme framework, and designed reporting channels with confidentiality protections. The package included implementation guidance and periodic audit advisory provisions.
Outcome
The organisation implemented the compliance programme across its Thai operations. The training framework supported internal education initiatives, and the reporting channel provided staff with a secure disclosure mechanism. The baseline assessment helped management prioritise implementation efforts.
"The baseline assessment was enlightening, identifying several areas where our existing policies could be improved. The compliance programme they developed was practical and aligned with both Thai requirements and international frameworks. The implementation guidance helped our management team understand the rollout process."
