After a 14-year-old gunman killed at least seven people outside Bangkok this month, PM Anutin proposed suspending new firearm purchase and ownership permits, and police were told to stop renewing purchase permits. Gun shops already cannot import firearms (banned since 2023). Some dealers have pivoted, such as one Bangkok gun shop now selling bakery goods to cover staff salaries. The gun trade is worth about 2 billion baht. If your business supplies or services gun shops or the firearms trade, plan for shrinking demand and consider diversifying. Otherwise there is no direct action needed.
