Appeal
6.1
Can the parties appeal the authority’s decision? If so, which decisions of the authority can be appealed (eg, all decisions or just the final decision) and what sort of appeal will the reviewing court or tribunal conduct (eg, will it be limited to errors of law or will it conduct a full review of all facts and evidence)?
Thailand

Answer ... Yes, all decisions of the Trade Competition Commission (TCC) can be appealed (on a full-review basis) to the Central Administrative Court and, subsequently, to the Supreme Administrative Court.

6.2
Can third parties appeal the authority’s decision, and if so, in what circumstances?
Thailand

Answer ... Conceptually, third parties that are directly affected by the TCC’s decisions may challenge such decisions before the Central Administrative Court and, subsequently, before the Supreme Administrative Court. For example, if the TCC approves a proposed merger despite apparent adverse effects on competition in the relevant market, it is conceptually possible that another player in the market may bring a case against the TCC before the Central Administrative Court.
