Greetings! Would anyone have any experience applying for a visa to be a self-employed musician in Bangkok?There is clearly a great deal of work available for musicians wishing to play at bars/hotels around Thailand, but I would like to do it legally and obtain the correct paperwork. In comparison, in the UK I can register as a self employed musician, then declare my earnings once each year, which decides how much tax I pay. Easy peasy. The Thai system is no doubt different, and I’m wondering if there is anything similar to this available in Thailand for non-Thais? Is anyone (farang) registered self employed at present?

Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.
