Thailand to regulate digital platform service businesses
The cabinet on Monday approved a draft decree to regulate digital platform service businesses to maintain financial and commercial stability and to prevent damage to the public, government spokesman Thanakorn Wangboonkongchana said.
Such businesses, both in and outside of Thailand, will need to notify the government before operating, he said in a statement.
The law will apply to various digital platform services including online marketplaces, social commerce, food delivery, space sharing, ride/car sharing and online search engines, he said.
