Hurricane51 Posted February 19, 2006 Share Posted February 19, 2006 Is it permitted for a farang to work as a musician in LOS? If so, is this an informal courtesy, or is it possible to actually get a work permit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rishi Posted February 19, 2006 Share Posted February 19, 2006 The musician would need a legally Thailand-registered "entity", which - as an employer - will sponsor that workpermit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sunbelt Asia Posted February 20, 2006 Share Posted February 20, 2006 is it possible to actually get a work permit? Yes. Several of our clients who are bands with foreign musicians, have set up their own Thai Limited Company. The employees have gotten a work permit with no problem. www.lawyer.th.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A blues guitarist is it possible to actually get a work permit? Yes. Several of our clients who are bands with foreign musicians, have set up their own Thai Limited Company. The employees have gotten a work permit with no problem. www.lawyer.th.com I see. Maybe once I get to Thailand I can look up some of these groups to see if they are looking for a guitarist (he's really good). Thanks for the tip.
