Moving To Bangkok..what Can I Do?

Featured Replies

I am a Brit who worked previously in Thailand now looking to work on short term contracts (3 months to 1 year).

I would like to know if the following options are possible:

1. I am offered a contract with a company that operates legally in Thailand. This company provides me with a letter that enables me to obtain a Non-Imm B visa. I then commence working for the company as a Contractor, not an Employee and I am paid in Thailand.

2. I set up an offshore company. I provide services on behalf of my company for a company in Thailand having acquired a Non-Imm B visa as above. I invoice on behalf of my company's and payments are made into my company's account overseas.

3. I set up a Rep Office in Bangkok for my UK company. I have heard that this requires significant investment?

Are there any other options?

I have heard that it may be possible that a Non-Imm B visa can be issued in order to go to Thailand to look for work? Is that true?

Many thanks.

Do you sell financial instruments?

Your'e not that guy who just left my condo owing me money when out of the goodness of my heart I let him stay on a while, name David G?

If so give up now.

But wont you also need a work permit not just the "B" visa.

I have used a "B" to investigate the possibilities of work but decided it wasn't feasible

No idea who David G is and I have never owed anybody anything....

I know of people who have worked for years on a B visa never getting a work permit because they were not employees, just contractors, so I was hoping someone could shed more light on this.
