I am 60 years old & have been living in Thailand for the past 5 years with a Thai lady ( Business owner) using a Non-Immigrant "0" Multiple entry. My question is: Just for something to do I have been helping her out with her restaurant business (on location) & do not recieve any money for doing so, & also do not replace any job a Thai would do; she already employes no less than 30 Thai's including 3 managers. Do I need a "work permit" to legally help her out even though I am not on the payroll & no money exchanges hands? I am planning to change my visa status to "retired" soon. Will this change reflect any differently to the question "do I need a work permit"?
