Siam Legal International is highlighting the election of Mikkel Karlsen, Legal Services Manager at the firm, to the Board of Directors of the Thai-Norwegian Chamber of Commerce for the 2026/27 term.

The announcement follows Mikkel Karlsen’s election to the Thai-Norwegian Chamber Board, which reflects Siam Legal’s growing involvement in Thailand’s international business community and its continued support for foreign businesses seeking practical legal guidance in the country.
Karlsen’s appointment reflects Siam Legal International’s continued engagement with Thailand’s international business community and its role in supporting foreign companies, investors, and professionals navigating Thai legal and regulatory requirements.
The Thai-Norwegian Chamber of Commerce has marked three decades of work supporting business connections between Thailand and Norway since its founding in 1996. The chamber continues to serve as a platform for business dialogue, professional networking, and cooperation between Thai and Norwegian companies operating across both markets.
Siam Legal notes that practical legal guidance remains important for foreign businesses in Thailand, particularly in areas such as company registration, foreign business compliance, contracts, employment, immigration, property, and regulatory matters. For companies entering or expanding in Thailand, understanding local legal procedures can help reduce risk and support stronger long-term operations.
“This appointment is an opportunity to contribute to practical dialogue between the Thai and Norwegian business communities,” said Mikkel Karlsen, Legal Services Manager at Siam Legal International. “Foreign businesses operating in Thailand often need clear guidance on legal structures, compliance requirements, and day-to-day regulatory issues. I look forward to supporting the chamber’s work and contributing to conversations that help businesses operate with greater confidence.”
Karlsen joins a board composed of business leaders and professionals involved in strengthening Thai-Norwegian commercial relations. His legal services background adds a practical perspective to the chamber’s work, particularly as foreign investors and international companies continue to place greater emphasis on compliance, transparency, and responsible business practices in Thailand.
Siam Legal International’s involvement with the chamber aligns with the firm’s broader work advising foreign nationals, companies, and investors in Thailand. The firm regularly assists clients with business formation, immigration and visa matters, property transactions, family law, litigation, and corporate legal support.
The appointment also reflects the growing importance of professional networks in helping foreign businesses understand Thailand’s legal and commercial environment. As business activity between Thailand and international markets continues to evolve, chambers of commerce remain important platforms for knowledge sharing, relationship building, and practical market guidance.
Siam Legal International is a Thailand-based full-service law firm with offices in Bangkok, Chiang Mai, Phuket, and Pattaya. The firm assists foreign nationals, Thai citizens, and businesses with legal and immigration matters, including company registration, property law, family law, litigation, and long-term residency.
