Can I provide coaching services in Thailand on a donation basis with a non-working visa?

It's not legal - don't get denounced/caught

Open Only Fans account and smash kathoeys… Best job in Thailand for farangs

Just pay some hush money like the orange bible selling turd trump, and be convicted on 34 felonies ...

Go ahead, volunteer like the SIMPs

There is an important difference between a work permit and a visa. A visa is a document acquired by an individual to enter a specific country while a work permit is a document issued to a person permitting that person to perform work.

A foreign applicant for a work permit and his or her employer are subject to different requirements. A work permit applicant must meet certain education requirements, provide evidence that she or he has certain skills, meet health requirements, provide a resume, and satisfy other requirements. The applicant cannot apply for a work permit to perform work that a foreigner is not permitted to perform, such as working as a lawyer or a tour guide.

An employer must submit documents showing that the company is a duly registered juristic person, meets certain minimum capitalization requirements, provide a list of shareholders, VAT documents, social security documents and other documents. Generally, there must be four Thai employees for each work permit.

The process of collecting and submitting the documents for a work permit application is paper and time intensive.

Um.... that's work and they will not be amused.

You can’t even volunteer

I play guitar in my local bar. I don't get paid anything. Just do it for the love of music. Can I get into trouble?

Haha volunteer with donations sounds like a fancy work around to work abs get paid

Even volunteering is seen as work so you cannot do what you intend to do....legally.

Maybe you can coach thailands ice hockey team but you still require a permit

You need a work permit for any work, paid or unpaid.

I heard volunteers after the tsunami were cited for working without a permit just clearing rubble away😰

U can’t even volunteer in Thailand without a visa

Really?

Even the question about work based on donations shows that you are actually informed about the legal situation.It is therefore not entirely clear to me what answers you expect here. Ideally, you should find out about the consequences if you are caught and reconsider your plans without work visa to offer services. And of course donations are also a paid service.

That would be working

They're starting a digital nomad visa from June 1st. Why not come on that if you're keen to pay Thai tax

You really put a lot of faith in all the FB strangers for legal advice...

Officially still classed as working, so it is illegal to do so.

Coaching what, soccer 5555.

Cannot volunteer either !

You will need a work visa for sure.

If you get caught the penalties are not good

Careful. If you do that and get caught you will be sorry. Any volunteering can be very risky

Coaching services online or in person?

Check it out. It might be of help .

-You need a visa to volunteer.

-Even if you have a work permit, you can’t handle cash. (In most cases)

I'm just here for the inevitable circle jerk of illegal workers commenting to say it's ok.

You cannot work in Thailand for money, donations or even volunteer unless you have a visa that allows and a work permit to do so.
