Thailand Intensifies Crackdown on Illegal Foreign Businesses

Featured Replies

If they want to stop Foreigner beeing in Businesses that are " for Thais Only " just stop Foreigners to have the possibility to own 49% of those type of businesses.  

Foreigner can not own any % of Businesses only for Thais  , Foreigner can not be Directors  of Businesses " For Thai Only " .

😂😂😂 Half of the Thai Legal Firms would go on strike 😂😂😂

    Because a "crackdown" on illegal Thai activity won't gather any support, lawbreaking is for Thais only.

    Renters are not breaking any law.   The owner of the unit should be prosecuted.  In Thailand the unknowing foreigner is harassed because Thai police are ineffective and cannot do their job properly.

    Why does every thai proposal include the words " foreign" and " crackdown"

Same same a few days of headlines then back to normal. 

 

They simply cannot crack down on all the foreign business open these days since the visa relaxations.

Does this mean you can't rent your condo investment out to friends for a few weeks now

In my building the condo has signs everywhere stating in red how daily rentals are prohibited. However they don't even bother to look up when daily rentals rock up looking confused with loads of luggage and having check-in issues or wondering why they can't use the lift without a keycard. 

The google reviews say they can actually pickup and dropoff keys from reception and I have seen them down there complaining to reception about it being "the worst hotel ever".

My old condo Lumpiniville Pattaya also had daily rentals strolling past reception daily despite the 7 foot tall sign at the door prohibiting it.

I guess as long as theres a sign you don't need to actually do anything and can enjoy a nice day of candy crush saga on your phone.

In the residence I use, security now requires a signed one month contract to allow travellers in. I assume that shorter time renters may get a fake one month contract from the owner or the agency, even if they are staying only a few days, but I did not check that.
