Police in Nakhon Si Thammarat are investigating 112 companies suspected of acting as illegal nominees, with legal action already initiated against several firms in Tha Sala district.
According to a report by Matichon Online, police authorities in Nakhon Si Thammarat province have launched a crackdown on business entities suspected of operating as illegal nominees. Officials are currently scrutinizing 112 companies that have raised concerns regarding their ownership structures and compliance with Thai business regulations.
Legal proceedings have already commenced against three to four companies located in the Tha Sala district. The investigation focuses on identifying whether these entities are being used to circumvent laws that restrict foreign ownership in certain sectors of the Thai economy.
For residents and expatriates, this development highlights a broader effort by provincial authorities to enforce corporate transparency and ensure that business operations adhere to national legal standards. While the investigation is currently localized to specific companies in Nakhon Si Thammarat, it underscores the importance of verifying the legal status and ownership compliance of any business entity one might engage with.
At this stage, the investigation is ongoing. It remains to be confirmed how many of the 112 companies under scrutiny will face formal charges and whether this operation will expand to other districts or provinces. Authorities have not yet released the names of the companies involved or specific details regarding the nature of the alleged violations.
