ORIGINAL POSTER

Hello, can someone recommend a lawyer in Thailand who can consult me on the following question:

I am approved as webdesigner with my german webdesign business, creating mainly websites for German customers. For who can I create websites while I am in Thailand? Only for businesses outside of Thailand? Can I create a website for a thai company or thai friend? Can I create websites for other digital nomads I meet in Thailand?

TLDR : Answer Summary

The general consensus is that while you can create websites for businesses outside of Thailand, you are prohibited from doing so for Thai entities or individuals if you hold a DTV visa. There may be some flexibility when working with other digital nomads. For legal advice specific to your situation, it's recommended to consult a lawyer familiar with Thai business and immigration laws.

DTV VISA RESOURCES / SERVICES

Take the basic DTV Qualification Test to see if you're eligible for the Destination Thailand Visa (DTV).
For immediate assistance, contact Thai Visa Centre directly via LINE at @ThaiVisaCentre or Email them.
Explore recent discussions by using the DTV Visa tag in the search box at the top of the page.

Only for businesses outside of Thailand? YES - Can I create a website for a thai company or thai friend? NO - Can I create websites for other digital nomads I meet in Thailand? PROBABLY - Just pay business to business outside Thailand 🙂

You cannot do business with a Thai entity or person with DTV visa.

Why don't freelance photographers qualify for DTV in Thailand if their clients are abroad?
