Summary
Recently, the Trade Competition Commission of Thailand (“TCC”) has issued a new draft notification, i.e., Guidelines on Unfair Trade Practices between Online Food Delivery Service Providers and the Restaurant Business Operators (“Draft Guidelines”). The Draft Guidelines have completed the public hearing stage on 15 September 2020 and are subject to further changes and publication. It is expected that such Draft Guidelines will be published in the government gazette by the end of this year.
The Draft Guidelines aim to regulate any unfair acts by powerful online food delivery service providers on various aspects, e.g., setting of commission fee, advertisement fee, promotion fee, delayed credit terms, refusal to deal, and unreasonable delisting, etc. Such Draft Guidelines signal the TCC’s goal for stricter regulations in the online food-delivery sector.
