Hi everyone, hope you're having a good day.
I have some questions about the DTV visa and running a business on it in Thailand.
I'm in the process of starting a business, and my thought was to run it from Thailand on a DTV visa (with the business registered in the EU).
However, I'm a bit concerned about certain aspects of the broad interpretation of "work" in Thailand.
My business is, simply put, for medical tourism, connecting non-Thai individuals with Thai hospitals and clinics for various procedures.
Even though my business operates entirely remotely, there's still communication between it and Thai businesses, is that a dealbreaker?
I've gotten conflicting opinions about this.
If I hire a Thai consultant (as needed for bookings) who handles all communication with the hospitals and clinics, would that be a solution?
Unfortunately, this business plan doesn't fit the requirements for the Smart S visa or any of BOI's sponsored activities, and I don't have the capital to apply for "bigger" business visas yet.
I'd be grateful if someone could shed some light on this or share their own experiences.
Thank you so much!
Best regards,
