Thailand Immigration Rules during COVID-19

Extension for Thai Permanent Residency, Visa-on-Arrival, Long-term Visa and Temporary Border Pass during COVID-19 State of Emergency

Due to the enactment of “Emergency Decree on Public Administration in Emergency Situation B.E. 2548 (2005) (“EPAES”) which took effect from March 26, 2020. Travel restrictions were implemented to control the spread of COVID-19.

The previous announcement issued on April 7, 2020 stated that Thai permanent residency (“PR”), visa-on-arrival (“VOA”), long-term visa and Temporary Border Pass (“TBP”) holders were allowed a grace-period of stay until the end of April 2020. However, due to the ongoing crisis, a new notification from the Ministry of Interior Re: Permission issued on April 21, 2020 had furthered extended the previous grace period.

This newsletter will cover the new extension and exemption regulations for Thai permanent residency (“PR”), visa-on-arrival (“VOA”), long-term visa and Temporary Border Pass (“TBP”) holders.

Thai Permanent Residency (PR)

Under Thailand’s Immigration Act B.E. 2522 (1979), those who have been issued a PR permit (a blue book) can reside permanently in Thailand, with no need to apply for an extension of stay. If the holder wishes to leave the country, he/she must apply for a notification of leave that is valid for 1 year.

In the event that the holder cannot return to Thailand within the 1-year period (i.e. before the notification of leave expires), he/she is allowed an extension until COVID-19 pandemic has been resolved and the travel restrictions have been lifted. To this end, the holder must report to the immigration officer once he/she had returned to Thailand.

Visa-on-Arrival (VOA) & Long-term visa

Visitors with visa-on-arrival (VOA) and long-term visa may reside in Thailand until July 31, 2020. The Thai Immigration Bureau also waived the 90 days requirement to report his/her residential address to the immigration officer. There will be no additional fees or documents to be submitted to the Thai authority.

Temporary Border Pass (TBP)

Those who have been issued a TBP will be allowed to reside in Thailand until the Thai border has re-opened. Nonetheless, the TBP holder must leave Thailand within 7 days from the border reopening date, all overstay fees will be waived.

Entry Rules

Court of First Instance Proceeding Postponement

Court of First Instance Proceeding Postponement

As an effort to slow down the spread of Covid-19, Thailand Office of Judicial Administration Commission (“JAC”) has implemented new rules and regulations for Thailand’s Court of First Instance proceedings. These changes are designed to reduce necessary gathering in compliance with social-distancing rules, as well as, Emergency Decree on Public Administration in Emergency Situation B.E. 2548 (2005) (“EPAES”) and Communicable Diseases Act B.E. 2558 (2015) (“CDA”). The changes to court proceedings are as below.

1). Special Proceeding Cases

Period: March 24 – May 31, 2020

All related proceedings, discoveries, hearings or trials scheduled during the stated period will be postponed and appointed a new date. With this being said, exemption cases are the following:

  1. Criminal cases, that the defendant is incarcerated during the proceeding, such as: witness examination in a guilty plea and evidence examination;
  2. Civil cases, such as: appointment of guardianship, appointment of an estate manager or declaration of a missing person;
  3. Other cases, where:
    • The plaintiff and court agreed that it is appropriate and safe to proceed;
    • A postponement may adversely affect either parties, and that the consents from both parties are required in order to proceed.

Despite the above exemptions, the court may decide to postpone if the number of participants exceed an appropriate limit.

2). Ordinary and Special Cases

Period: March 24 – May 31, 2020

All related proceedings, discoveries, hearings or trials scheduled during the stated period will be postponed and appointed a new date. With exemption cases as the following:

  1. Criminal cases where the defendant is incarcerated during the proceeding;
  2. Other cases where:
    • The litigant wishes to proceed with the discovery;
    • The court deemed appropriate and safe to proceed;
    • That a postponement may adversely affect either parties.

Regardless, the court may decide to postpone if the number of participants exceed an appropriate limit.

3). Filing of Complaint, Deference of Criminal case, Requesting Court Order, Imprisonment and Bail

Requests for any actions above and other related actions will continue as usual. However, there is likely to be a change in operation hours due to the social distancing guideline.

Overall, in consideration of the on-going effort to reduce the spread of COVID-19, relates parties should consider whether the court proceeding is avoidable. If this is the case, it would be best to postpone the proceeding to a later date. If you have further question or need any assistance, please contact us at law@ilct.co.th.

Annual General Meeting (AGM) during COVID-19 Pandemic

Annual General Meeting (AGM) during COVID-19 Pandemic

In the usual circumstances, Thailand’s Annual General Meeting (“AGM”) is required to be held within 4 months from the end of the company’s fiscal year as per the , Thailand Civil and Commercial Code (“CCC”).

In light of the ongoing COVID-19 outbreak the recent announcements issued under the Emergency Decree on Public Administration in Emergency Situation B.E. 2548 (2005) (“EPAES”) and Communicable Diseases Act B.E. 2558 (2015) (“CDA”) have caused postponement to the routinely held AGM so that the latest COVID-19 preventative protocols are to be complied with by everyone

This article will provide FAQs regarding AGM arrangement for both Public Company Limited and Private Company Limited.

Should AGM be postponed?

Short answer is “YES”. Due to the enactment of the EPAES, many public venues are ordered to be closed, as well as, restrictions on large public gathering. These two regulations alone justify the postponement of a large public gathering such as the AGM. The EPAES is effective national wide, meaning that it applied to all AGM scheduled to be held in other provinces (beside Bangkok metropolitan). Thailand Department of Business Development (“DBD”) and Thailand Ministry of Commerce(“MOC”) have confirmed that the AGM can be postponed to a later date (after COVID-19 outbreak subsided) by submitting a letter to the DBD’s registrar after the AGM has been held.

Under this new regulation, companies are required to notify the shareholders of the AGM postponement either via typical announcement, online announcement or SETLink. Moreover, holding the AGM via electronic conference should be avoided as there are certain conflicting regulations (i.e. 1/3 of the quorum is required to be in the same place) that may violate the EPAES or CDA. Overall, AGM postponement is recommended.

AGM Important Requirements

With this being said, the AGM will still have to comply with the rules and regulations set forth by the TCCC, which are:

 

  • Consider and approve the previous minutes of shareholders’ meeting;
  • Consider the company’s operating results of the previous year;
  • Consider and approve the audited annual financial statements;
  • Consider and approve the distribution of dividends
  • Consider and approve the appointment of directors whose term expires by rotation;
  • Consider and approve the remuneration of directors;
  • Consider and approve the appointment of external auditor and auditing fee;
  • In case there are other significant agendas, the company must ensure the information provided to shareholders is sufficient and complete.

Special Requirements (if any):

 

  • Annual dividend may be changed into interim dividend payment with the approval and announcement from the Board of Directors. The dividend must be distributed within 1 month from the approval date;
  • Election/rotation of the Board of Directors may be postponed until the COVID-19 outbreak has ended and the AGM has been held, the current Board of Directors may retain the position until then;
  • Companies may appoint a new or retain the current external auditors approved by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) until the COVID-19 outbreak has ended and the AGM has been held. New appointment of an external auditor should be proposed for approval at the AGM.

Document Submission Deadlines

List of Shareholders:

 

  • For Private Company Limited – 14 days from the new AGM date
  • For Public Company Limited – 1 month from the new AGM date

Annual Financial Statements:

 

  • 1 month from the new AGM date

Submission Route:

Due to the current COVID-19 protocol, all related documents should be submitted via DBD e-Filing portal (http://efiling.dbd.go.th/). Nonetheless, companies should also keep paper copies for backup purposes.

Protocol for Listed Company during COVID-19

Protocol for Listed Company during COVID-19

 

Due to the on-going COVID-19 crisis which has affected the upcoming annual general meeting (AGM). The Thai Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) had announced a few changes to the related regulations for the listed companies as set out below.

Regulation Changes:

  • Temporary appointment of an external auditor – A listed company may appoint a temporary external auditor without holding an AGM. In this instance, the Board of Directors can select an external auditor approved by the SEC or allow the previous external auditor to audit the financial statements for the 1st quarter of 2020.  Once the AGM can be held, the usual appointment of the external auditor shall then be officially proposed for the shareholders’ approval.
  • Submission of reports concerning the financial condition and the business operation – Taken effect from March 31, 2020, the SEC has allowed an extension of the deadline for the submission of (1) quarterly financial statements (2) annual financial statements and (3) annual registration statement with an ending period from January 1, 2020 – May 31, 2020. To be eligible for an extension, the company must:
    • Submit a request for an extension to the SEC Office before the due date of such period along with explanations (COVID-19 impacts) and proposed the new submission date of the reports.
    • The company must make an extension announcement via SETLink or other medium that the shareholders can access.
  • Financial statements extension period – If granted an extension, the new timeframes are as follows:
    • Submission of quarterly financial statements must not exceed the end period of the next quarterly statements;
    • Submission of annual financial statements and annual registration statements must not exceed 4 months from the end of the fiscal year.
  • Dividend payment – In the absence of an AGM, the Board of Directors may approve the dividend in the form of an interim dividend payment instead. For dividend payment in the form of an asset or share, the company must still undergo a normal AGM process and obtain shareholders’ approval, thus payment of dividend in this form is not advisable until an AGM can be held.
  • Shareholders announcement – The company is required to keep shareholders updated on any change to the regulations and rules during COVID-19 outbreak (i.e. AGM postponement). Related announcements should be posted on SETLink.

Guideline for holding the AGM via a video conference

Guideline for holding the AGM via a video conference

Due to the impracticality made by the Announcement of National Council for Peace and Order No. 74/2557 on Electronic Media Conference, B.E. 2557 (2014), which imposed restrictions including: (1) 1/3 of the quorum must be present in the same place and (2) participants/attendants must be in the Kingdom at the same time. These restrictions were found to be conflicting with the current social distancing guideline imposed by the Emergency Decree on Public Administration in Emergency Situation B.E. 2548 (2005) and Communicable Diseases Act B.E. 2558 (2015) along with the WHO’s health guideline. As a result, many businesses had no option but to postpone their annual general meeting (AGM) until the crisis is mitigated.

To resolve the impracticality, the Thai government made an additional announcement on the Emergency Decree on Electronic Media Conference, B.E. 2563 (2020) which came into effect on April 19, 2020. The new announcement effectively lifted the previously mentioned (1) and (2) restrictions. Under this new regulation, 1/3 of quorum is no longer required to be at the same venue nor within the Kingdom during the AGM. Hence, meeting via video conferencing will now be valid.

Nonetheless, corporate entities must comply with the regulations issued by the Ministry of Information and Communication Technology on Security Standards for Electronic Media Conference, B.E. 2557 (2014). This announcement encompasses various regulations including meeting’s technical requirements and security guideline.  

Technical Requirements

  • Participants/attendants must have both video and audio access to the conference.
  • Participants/attendants must be able to tele-communicate at all times during the conference.
  • There must be basic video conferencing equipment/function available, such as: microphones, video cameras, projectors or shared-screen function etc.
  • There must be equipment/function to reduce interference during the video conference, such as: noise-filtering and video buffering.
  • The meeting administrator has the ability to halt, pause or modify the video conference as appropriate.

Security Guideline

  • There must be a sufficient identification, verification and authorization protocol for the participants/attendants.
  • Record all audio and visual contents of the meeting (except confidential matters).
  • Record all video traffic information of the meeting.
  • The recorded media must be in non-editable format and stored in a secure server/medium.
  • The recorded media must correctly display crucial information, such as: time, date, and IP address, etc.
  • The meeting administrator has the ability to display all related documents via video conference.

For now, corporate entities  wishing to hold an AGM may refer to the guideline issued by the Ministry of Digital Economy and Society. The full guide can be downloaded via this link (http://dmsic.moph.go.th/index/detail/8076). As long as the video conference follows the guideline, it will be a valid evidence under the laws.

Business Operation Manual during COVID-19 Pandemic

Business Operation Manual during COVID-19 Pandemic

With the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, businesses face many new challenges, whether in connection with   the working condition, financial stability or management of their human resources. With the implementations of several announcements under the Emergency Decree on Public Administration in Emergency Situation B.E. 2548 (2005) (“EPAES”), Communicable Diseases Act B.E. 2558 (2015) (“CDA”) on top of the new social distancing guideline and hygiene protocol, businesses are forced to make unconventional changes to their usual operation. Transitions can be messy with multiple legal implications, thus, below are some of the possible paths allowable under the Thai Labour Protection Act B.E. 2541 (“LPA”).

Path 1: Financial Cutbacks

Seeing the current COVID-19 situation in addition to the new social distancing guideline. It can be difficult for businesses to operate under these new conditions. Business sectors such as: restaurants, airlines or hotels are only some of those heavily affected. Understandably, some businesses may be forced to tune their financial stability by various means. A pay-cut policy is possible only if the workers consented to it, but in reality, it will not be that easy. The LPA protects the payment of salary under the “Condition of Employment”, a pay-cut would mean a decrease in the Condition of Employment, therefore, not allowed by law. 

On one hand, businesses may make a plea to the Labour Department (Inspector) that the business is suffering financially from COVID-19’s impacts. Under this method, businesses may cut up to 25% (maximum) from the usual worker salaries. Currently, the Thai Labour Department is providing an online portal to make the said plea (https://s97.labour.go.th/pub_m75/M75Form.php). Note that the company must notify the workers and Labor Inspector at least three days prior to implementing such measure.

On the other hand, business may also invoke “force majeure” to temporary close its business operation and not pay the salaries at all. With this being said, force majeure should not be taken lightly, it has potential legal backlashes. At this point, it is unclear whether COVID-19 pandemic will be considered as force majeure by the Thai Court.

As a viral outbreak is uncommon in Thailand and there are no clear interpretations whether neither of the two above measures are legally correct. To avoid a messy lawsuit, it is best to obtain consent from the workers and seek legal advices.

Path 2: Layoffs

For layoffs, businesses must pay severance payments. The LPA stipulated that the severance payment must be calculated based on each worker’s length of service. Intentionally withholding the severance payment has real legal consequences. Nonetheless, there are exceptions that would excuse businesses from paying the severance payment. Termination from embezzlement, willful misconduct or severe disobedience breaching the company’s work rules would be examples of such. Nonetheless, there must be evidence to support these severe termination claims.

With this being said, layoffs due to COVID-19 does not fall under the exceptions. Terminations from financial loss or bad economy does not warrant for withholding the severance payment. Unwarranted actions are likely to bring about the “unfair termination” lawsuit that could escalate to a court battle. If true, businesses will have to prove to the court that there are no other alternatives except layoffs and withholding the severance payment.  

The simplest approach would be to negotiate with the workers and come to a mutual termination agreement. This way the severance package can be negotiated leaving both parties satisfied while also minimizing legal backlashes.

Path 3: Social Distancing

The so called “social distancing” is undoubtably one of the most popular options in the digitized world. Working remotely has never been easier, many new applications such as: Skype, Microsoft Team, Zoom or Google Hangouts have enabled businesses to continue their operation without the workers being physically present on site. If full digitization is not possible, businesses may also consider separating workers into teams and create a rotating shift system, thereby minimizing unnecessary contacts.

Bear in mind that any change to the work rules must comply with the law and fully consented by the workers. Again, the LPA protects the “Condition of Employment”, this is including: working hours, salaries, working environment and so on. Simply put, businesses are not allowed to implement any new working rules that would be “worst or less favourable” than the usual working rules. Nevertheless, incorporation of social distancing guideline into the work rules is likely to be viewed as a “better or favourable” working rules, provided that the workers are still entitled to the usual salary and benefits along with a formal consent. Still, businesses should be wary that the change of working rules must not create unnecessary hardship for the workers (less favourable working condition). To this end, the social distancing switch is not easy but will allow continuous business operation, as well as, minimizing financial impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic.

Ultimately, it is undeniable that businesses across the globe are feeling the impacts of COVID-19. In preparation of a pro-longed pandemic and shutdown, businesses must adapt and evolve to conform with the new global norms. Regardless of the path chosen, businesses should come to a mutual understanding with their workers before taking further actions. Factors such as: legal, financial, economic, social and ethical are all crucial and should be considered. With no end in sight, businesses are advised to tread lightly as there is no one-size-fit-all path.

Covid-19 Grace Period for Intellectual Property (IP) related Prosecution

Covid-19 Grace Period for Intellectual Property (IP) related Prosecution

As Covid-19 (“Coronavirus”) continues rampage through the country, Thailand Department of Intellectual Property (“DIP”) will be allowing applicant/owner to file a request for a grace period extending the usual deadline. This grace period is preliminary provided for those who is directly affected by Covid-19. Further explanations are below.

What does this Covid-19 grace period cover?

Everything that is under the administration of DIP, including: patents, petty patents, design patents, trademarks, geographical indications and topography of integrated circuits.

This grace period will apply to all IP related prosecution process, such as: application deadline, opposition deadline, registration deadline, office action deadline or any payment deadline.

Who can apply for this?

The owner/applicant.

How does this work?

For individual, he/she must submit relevant documents showing evidence of sickness and treatment of Covid-19. In short, documents showing that Covid-19 has directly affected the ability to handle IP prosecution.

For company, it must prove that Covid-19 has directly impact and hinder the handling process of the related IP prosecution process. If the CEO or director became ill from Covid-19, he/she can submit related medical document on behalf of the company.   

It is uncertain whether agent/lawyer can make a similar claim. At this time, it would seem that DIP will only allow a request made directly by the applicant/owner.

What are the required documents?

  • Copy of the passport of the affected person (important);
  • Medical certificate showing Covid-19 infection (important);
  • Document proving resident within Covid-19 outbreak areas (important);
  • Document verifying high-risk individual, close proximity of the infected or close proximity to those returning from high-risk areas;
  • Any document that may prove direct impact from Covid-19 outbreak;
  • Document verifying Covid-19 infection or outbreak have ended (important);

It is unclear as to how the Thai examiner/registrar will review these documents. Nonetheless, we have marked the important documents that should be submitted, and we will further discuss with the examiner/registrar if this is the case.

What happen after I submit the documents?

Once submitted, the examiner/registrar will review the request on a case-by-case basis. If approved, the applicant/owner will be granted a 30 days extension from the approval date. On the other hand, if the request is rejected, the applicant/owner can file an appeal within 15 days from the decision date. Once again, it is uncertain as to how DIP will calculate the dates.  

Our recommendation

Avoid applying for a Covid-19 grace period unless it is necessary. Seeing multiple uncertainties, including document criteria, deadline on top of examiner/registrar own discretion, it may not be beneficial for owner/applicant to use this. There are considerable risks involve, if the request should fail it may subsequently cause the related IP matter to lapse.

Overall, we recommend that applicant/owner/agent maintain the formal deadline and prepare ahead of time. Our firm has implemented a work-from-home protocol and we are ready to assist you. If you have further question or concern, please contact ipgroup@ilct.co.th.
