Its goal is to modernize the justice system in Thailand. The program aims to make the system more accessible, efficient, and user-friendly. This initiative is a key part of the \u201cThailand 4.0\u201d digital economy strategy. It uses technology to offer faster and cheaper services to the public. It also helps close the digital gap in legal processes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The program has key features like an E-filing system.

When picking a firm, ask if their AI tools follow the new ethical rules. This is important as Thailand gets ready for its first Artificial Intelligence Framework Act, expected around 2027.

The licensing rule was read in Thai from the <strong>Lawyers Act B.E. 2528, section 35<\/strong>, and the AI paragraph against the instrument it describes. <strong>Eight corrections were made.<\/strong> Section 35(1) requires Thai nationality of anyone registering for a lawyer\u2019s licence, which is why a foreigner can only advise, and section 35(3) requires a law degree the Lawyers Council accepts plus membership of the Thai Bar Association, which is the distinction the FAQ below draws between a lawyer and a barrister. The Bank of Thailand paragraph now names the instrument: the <strong>AI Risk Management Guidelines for Financial Service Providers<\/strong>, issued 12 September 2025, which require a firm\u2019s AI policy to align with the FEAT principles rather than the Bank having authored them.
