Extraordinary General Meetings in Thailand
An Extraordinary General Meeting (EGM) is any other form of shareholders meeting that is not an ordinary meeting or an AGM. An EGM is required to be held by law for the shareholders to pass resolutions.
Why are EGMs important in Thailand?
EGMs are called when there is a significant agenda to propose to shareholders. An EGM will be used to discuss the agenda and for shareholders to pass resolutions relating to it. An example of an agenda which would require an EGM would be, changing directors of the company.
By law, there are two kinds of shareholders’ resolutions: an ordinary resolution and a special resolution. The ordinary resolution will be used in any shareholders meeting except where a special resolution is called for by law.
The law requires the following actions to have the special resolution:
- Amending a Memorandum of Association or an Article of Incorporation;
- Increasing a capital by issuing new shares;
- Issuing new shares paid other than money;
- Decreasing a capital;
- Dissolving the business;
- Merging the businesses.
EGMs can be called at any time and require at least 20% of the shareholders to attend the meeting.
In order to hold an extraordinary shareholders meeting, companies must satisfy the following criteria as set out in the Thai law. Firstly, the Board of Directors must issue a notice letter calling the EGM at least 7 days prior to the meeting date. This notice letter must be published in a local newspaper and sent by registered mail or by hand to all eligible shareholders i.e. those whose names are listed on the register of shareholders.
