WESTERN SEABOARD

Objectives: To promote the BCCT within the Western Seaboard, centered around Hua Hin, to recruit new members and to act as an interface for Western Seaboard Members to interact and work with Bangkok Members. To make the BCCT, the ‘Go To’ Chamber of Commerce in the Western Seaboard

Activities in 2024: We organized and hosted 4 multi-Chamber events in Hua Hin, getting on average 80 to 90 guests. Since we have started working with other Chambers and local Rotary Clubs, we are getting a more diverse audience at events and getting more nationalities from other Chambers.

We have also seen more Western Seaboard members in the last 12 months start to join Connecting Events in Bangkok.

Plans for  2025

We will continue to have 4 main Networking events throughout 2025 and at least 2 information Seminars to somewhat replicate the Seminars that the BCCT do in Bangkok.  We plan to have the BOI come to Hua Hin and present all the changes on the new LTR Visas and we plan to have another Financial Seminar to keep Members up to date with the ongoing Tax Return situation and offshore income changes.

Sponsors

We would like to thank all our event sponsors for 2024 and 2025, Members and Non-Members can sponsor our events at a very reasonable cost, so if you are interested in sponsoring an upcoming event, please reach out to us for details.

Event Locations
