In recent years, the challenges posed by an increasingly complex and fast-changing business world have brought about major changes in the way firms do business. The ability to respond to shifts in business activity in a fast, focused and flexible manner has become critical.
In light of this, it is with pleasure that we invite you to attend our 8th annual Tax and Legal conference, Planning for Success*. This year’s two-day conference brings together an experienced team of qualified tax and legal professionals to shed light on a variety of Tax and Legal issues that may affect businesses in Thailand.
The first day of the conference will include an update on Tax and Legal issues, as well as a guest speaker from the Revenue Department who will discuss their strategic aim of becoming more proactive in tax administration, and the potential impact this may have on your business. Our tax panel will look at where Thailand stands competitively among its neighbouring countries, and which tax and legal reforms may increase its competitiveness.
Day two of the conference comprises of a number of breakout sessions, of which participants can select four to attend. The breakout sessions are:
 |  |
- Thai DTA Developments
- VAT “Horror Stories”
- Customs and Excise Developments
- New Horizons (A look at tax planning and “what’s new” in emerging markets)
- Tax and Legal Issues Employers Need to Know (Thai only)
|  |
