I'm a DJ planning to play at some commercial and non commercial events in Thailand. Do I need to apply for any type of work visa? Even if I choose not be paid?

Thanks

Hello everyone,

I am on a non-o volunteer visa with a foundation. My income for this is coming from Germany. And as I am working in Thailand, Germany does not require me to pay taxes. However, for my work permit renewal next year I need to show prove of tax payment. Therefore I was thinking I might pay taxes here in Thailand. Does anybody have any information on this? Or possibly an accounting/tax consultant office that knows about more complex processes such is mine?

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Hi All, I intend to retire in Koh Samui using a non immigrant O visa for retirement (after initially landing with a tourist visa and extending 90-days. etc......). Anyway, I understand that without a non immigrant O VOLUNTEER visa, I will not be able to volunteer for any charitable organizations while living there? That correct?

Anybody know how the "Bangkok Volunteer Rescue Workers" work?

These are the people standing around various spots in Bangkok waiting for accidents.

If/when the scope a person and take them to the hospital or give some poor schmuck a band-aid, do they charge the victim? How do they earn money for the the maintenance of their vehicles etc?

Hi! Does anyone know if it is possible to get an extension of stay based on being granted a non-immigrant "O" visa for volunteer work? I know a registered organisation that could sponsor me with the required letter but haven't been able to get much info from immigration.

Thanks!

A question, possibly a very dumb one: I have a non-immigrant O visa and work permit as a volunteer. Can I go stay in a location that's not my work place, like a hotel once a week? There is a new off day policy at my work. Would that be a problem?

My husband and I are volunteering in Thailand for a year. We have a non-imm O Visa. I know we need to apply for an extension of stay, but do we need to obtain a work permit too? I wasn't sure if volunteering required a work permit. If a work permit is required, do we have a grace period to obtain it from the time we enter Thailand? Thank you!

I hope I can ask this work permit question here. I was told that last week Dept of Labor suspended issuing work permits for anyone who is a volunteer. Does anyone have information on this? If this is not the place to ask - then is there a place I can go (in English). thank you.
