What are the visa requirements for trading forex/crypto in Thailand as a self-employed individual?

If I stay at Thailand, but my account in Indian exchange and transition done through my Indian bank account. Then what will be position. I will withdraw money from international visa card in Thailand.

Mean I run my online stock market business out of Thailand , only online orders from Thailand. Is it in list of working in Thailand? Tnx in advance.

But remember...

Crypto is only for criminals, druglords, and self-exiled prime ministers...

a HODL-er here bro :)

I've personally never had a problem trading or converting crypto into baht via p2p exchanges here. Someone above mentioned BX Thailand. They're ok, but deposit and withdrawal times can be pretty random. They've also banned all US customers recently due to FATCA I believe. If you have access to to a foreign crypto exchange and a local one in Thailand, you might actually find some pretty good arbitrage opportunities considering that BTC here often trades at 3%-15% higher than the global average.

As for trading legality in terms of work/tax, I couldn't say. Answers will become clearer when people start getting too rich in ways the govt hadn't thought of itself. Good luck & #HODL

as I said and stressed multiple times now, both told me NO WP needed to run your OWN portfolio !

well, I'm reading and doing research, then i put on a trade.....that trade can run for weeks without me interfering.....I do not think you need a WP to read financial news.

For many working under the radar without papers using a visa with the text Working Prohibited is the same as driving a motorbike without helmet. As long as the Police not stop you, or you get into an accident it is no problem or an issue, but it is still against the law.

If you are using your knowledge or physical energie (typing a keyboard) with or without a benefit it is called work in Thailand. Yes, I understand, some people call themselves nomads and claim the law is not for them, some how based on the fact that they do not need a house to work. To get Work Permit you need or to get employed or set up a company with 51 % Thai ownership and 49 % yours, Than you can apply for work permit and if you meet the requirements an Extension Of Stay at Immigration Office based on working in Thailand.

I once asked immigration, according to them if you trade for yourself, run your own portfolio no WP is needed....
