How to get Thailand company data from DBD: financials, directors & ownership

Every Thai company has a 13-digit juristic person ID and is registered with the DBD (Department of Business Development), part of the Ministry of Commerce. Here's how to pull a company's five-year financials, directors, shareholders and foreign-ownership split as clean JSON — for due diligence, KYB and supply-chain research.

What is a juristic person ID?

The juristic person registration number is the 13-digit identifier the DBD assigns to every registered Thai company (e.g. 0107544000108 for PTT Public Company Limited / บริษัท ปตท. จำกัด (มหาชน)). It's the reliable key for a lookup, because Thai company names exist in both Thai and English and are easily confused. When you don't have the number, you can search by name instead.

What data can you get?

• Identity — Thai & English registered name, 13-digit juristic ID, entity type, registration status, incorporation date, registered capital (THB) and full address.
• Financials (5 years) — total assets, revenue, net profit and shareholders' equity for the last five filed years, straight from DBD statements — a depth most free registries never expose.
• Directors — the full board, with each director's Thai & English name and nationality.
• Shareholders & foreign ownership — shareholder nationality breakdown and the foreign-vs-Thai ownership split, the key signal for Foreign Business Act screening.
• Industry — TSIC activity code and business description.

The easy way (by ID or name)

The DBD publishes the data, but behind an anti-bot layer and an encrypted data warehouse, split across Thai-language endpoints. Instead, the Thailand Company Data scraper on Apify takes a 13-digit juristic ID or a company name and returns one structured record — no login, no API key, exportable to JSON / CSV / Excel.

• Paste 13-digit juristic IDs for guaranteed matches; or
• Type company names (Thai or English) — resolved best-effort; or
• Upload a list for bulk KYB or supply-chain mapping.

For example, PTT's record returns five years of financials — revenue reaching ฿3.76 trillion — and all 15 board members; small and mid-size companies resolve just as well.

Researching the wider region? We give the same clean-JSON treatment to Korean, Taiwan and UK company data.

Is it legal?

It reads publicly available company records that the DBD itself publishes through its open data warehouse — the same data any visitor can view on the DBD website, with no account or login. Director and shareholder details are public statutory records; handle personal data in line with Thailand's PDPA and other applicable law, and confirm your use complies with the DBD's terms.
