You have to do these two things 7 days prior to the meeting date. For example, if the announcement is posted in the local newspaper on August 6, the meeting date will be on August 14.
2. After the meeting is held, fill out the following forms in Thai:Document1. BOJ 1
Document2. BOJ 4
Document3. BJ Certify
Document4. Form K (list of new board of director)
Document5. Power of attorney + a copy of attorney's (lawyer) law society membership card with his/her signature (the attorney needs to sign in the BOJ 1 form to certify the old director's signature). These two documents are required in case the director does not submit all the documents himself.
Along with these forms, you need to also submit a copy of ID card/passport of the old director who has authority to sign and of the new directors.
