fang37 Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 I have never worked in Thailand but my primitive observation is that it must be an area where there are specialist skills that the locals do not possess. Further, a certain number of locals must be employed by each applicant. If I decide to sell hot dogs in the street, am I breaking the law? How?

fang37 Posted December 10, 2015 Author Share Posted December 10, 2015 Thank you UJ What about the following? Legal services are prohibited BUT even on TVF, there are a number of legal firms advertising legal services. Visa agencies? Property agents? Foreign Buddhist monks after they are ordained? Serving (= working) the lay people when many cannot speak Thai. Social media - staff & moderators? Television models? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taco Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 Are you American? If so you can open a American amnesty treaty company which would open up more jobs to you including farming. Look into that if you are. But as we all know its up to the local cops as to what they will bust you for. The latest rounds in Koh Phangan have been with the police telling us even with a valid work permit, a farang bar or restaurant owner can not handle cash, which is an absolute joke. Our Burmese workers with work permits can and pay no monthly taxes yet we pay 2400 a month tax on our work permits and can't touch the almighty baht. Obviously none of us are complying. Best legal farang profession to date I know about is an American buddy legally farming and exporting Peyote on an amnesty company. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's no point challenging the advice (from experts I might add) which is based purely on the written law. ThaiVisa doesn't make the laws or apply the laws.

fang37 Posted December 10, 2015 Author Share Posted December 10, 2015 I am not questioning the law. I am making an inquiry - simple as that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
