Thailand Law Journal 2013 Fall Issue 1 Volume 16

Therefore, if amendment of the law which make piercing the corporate veil become more broadly used is plausible, it should be arranged in Civil and Commercial Code, Title 22:

Partnership and Companies as an exception of limited liability doctrine in section 1015, 1096.

This will solve the troubles arising from using the limited liability as a veil in every circumstance and can be applied in every type of corporations. Moreover, codification of piercing the corporate veil doctrine will enhance clarity and righteousness for the judicial branch to untie the legal, instead of an arm-length enforcement from section 5 of TCCC.

The guideline of the amendment may state that "In case that a corporations is unfaithfully run; with an intention to fraud or deceive its creditors or innocent third party or try to evade the liability or law enforcement, shareholders, directors or officers who are the conspirers of such act, shall be unlimitedly liable for the all debts of the corporation together with the corporation.
