Hi ,

I have some free social networking websites, there is no monetary transactions taking place. The hosting server is in the US but I live in Thailand. Do i need to register it as a company in Thailand ? how about If the website accepts payments via PayPal?

Working online is a grey area in Thailand, Thai law states that you must have a work permit to work in Thailand but as it is difficult to tell that you are working, they may not actually enforce it.

If you are not getting funds from the site and its a labor of love or a hobby then its like anybody on any website. However if you are getting funds from it and are working, then you would need a work permit in order to be fully legal.

Generally the only way to obtain a work permit for your own business is to set up a Thai Limited Company with 2 million baht in capital and 4 Thai employees (the Labor Office may allow 2 the first year) in order to obtain a work permit.
