Mario2008 Posted September 20, 2011 Share Posted September 20, 2011 You are working and would need a non-B visa and work permit, which you can only get if you work for a Thai based company. Tour guide is a restricted job in Thailand, only open to Thai nationals. Your description sounds more like a tour director or something, not like a guide. The difference is all in the job discription and in your case very important. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely a good tourist guide company would send someone to the airport who is Thai and can also communicate in the native language of the guests. No need for a translator.

Mario2008 Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 Your company needs to have a Thai partner company, from which you will get the work permit. Working without a work permit is punishable with a jail term of up to 5 years and the changes of being caught are very high in your line of work. You won't do 5 years, but you will be in for a hard time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
