Thai SEC Proposes Up to 80% Fee Cuts for Crowdfunding Platforms

Thailand’s Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) wants to cut securities registrar fees by up to 80 percent for eligible crowdfunding platforms.

The proposed changes target funding portals that handle securities registrar services exclusively for crowdfunding offerings through their own platforms.

The SEC proposes to halve the licence fee from 100,000 baht to 50,000 baht and reduce the annual fee from 50,000 baht to 10,000 baht.

The regulator aims to lower operating costs and support crowdfunding as a fundraising option for SMEs while protecting investors’ rights.

Funding portals must meet the SEC’s qualification and operational requirements to qualify.

Their securities registrar licences would also terminate if their approval as funding portals ends.

Funding portals that expand beyond their original approved scope would no longer qualify for the reduced annual fee.

The public consultation closes on 8 December 2026. Interested parties can submit feedback through the SEC website or by email.
