Hi all,
I have a question regarding work permits for self-employed foreigners in Thailand.
I’m married to a Thai national and currently hold a non-immigrant O visa (spouse visa). I don’t need the work permit for proof of income or similar requirements. My main concern is tax compliance, as I plan to stay in Thailand for more than six months.
To give some context, earning will come from income online and not on the ground work in Thailand.
I want to ensure that my online income is properly declared and taxed in Thailand. So, my question is this:
Is there a way for a foreigner on a non-O visa to obtain a work permit, without setting up a limited company?
Specifically, is there a freelance or self-employed route that allows for submitting income and expenses at the end of the year, without the complexities of hiring staff, etc.?
Any advice or experiences would be greatly appreciated!
