In order to play music in a bar, pub, or restaurant there are two music licenses required - one from a company called MPC, for most foreign and Thai music, and another license to play music by any Thai artist licensed by GMM Grammy. Indo-Siam Technical Services can assist you with preparing and processing applications for music licenses. Please contact us via contact page.
License fees for music licenses are as shown below.
