Häufige Fragen

Is Thai language essential for business in Thailand?

Absolutely necessary for consumer-facing content. While English works in business contexts, Thai consumers expect Thai language. Poor translations are worse than no translation. Work with native speakers.

How important is social commerce in Thailand?

Extremely important. LINE is the dominant messaging/social app. Instagram, TikTok, and Facebook are crucial. Social selling, influencer marketing, and live commerce are huge. Traditional e-commerce is secondary.

What payment methods are popular in Thailand?

Digital wallets (TrueMoney, Rabbit LINE Pay), bank transfers, and cash on delivery. Credit cards less common. Installment plans are very popular for higher-priced items.
