Hello. I'm working at a school in BKK and have a work permit, and the tax id. I'd like to do part-time remote work as a freelancer (non-teaching) and get paid to my thai bank account from clients overseas. Would it be fine? I'd like to do it legally, I'm willing to declare my income and pay tax. Can you suggest the way to do it? Normally, one would need to open a company and sponsor his work permit. But I do have a wp and don't think you can possess two. Any ideas appreciated. Thank you.

Hello all, I’m asking for some info for my girlfriend who is Thai. She’s a tennis coach already working for a coaching academy but she’s into training also, she wishes to start a ‘beach boot camp’; functional strength and conditioning training in a group environment on the beach.

This would ofcourse be an independent endeavour and she wouldn’t have the comforts of being employed by a company, we’re wondering what needs to be done with regards to declaring the income made and also potential permits required to deliver these sessions on the beach.

I understand this is quite a nuanced question but any help would be appreciated🙏

First of all hello everyone. I need your help with something. I want to get non-o marriage visa. One of the conditions, asks me to indicate that I have a salary of 40000 baht. My company is out of Thailand. How can I declare this situation legally? Ehere can i get this document?? Waiting for your help. Thank you

I'm moving from Nonthaburi to Don Muang soon. I suppose CW is gonna be my new Immigration office. Does anyone know if CW still accepts an affidavit of income from my (Belgian) embassy?

May I request the attention of the Oracles in this ass saving group, please?

Australian passport

Admitted on Non-Immigrant O A multiple entry Visa one year based upon Retirement. Arrived Swampy 4 September 2017.

Extended one year to August 6, 2019

(Special thanks to Steve Grier)

Given proposed cessation of Income Stat Decs by Australian Embassy in January 2019 I'm wondering if my current thinking is plausible....

My thinking... December 31, 2018

Leave Thailand by 6August 2019

Return to Australia

Apply for new Non-Immigrant O A Visa based upon retirement. Using Government Military Pension which is well in excess of 65 000 THB per month. Very verifiable.

I do not want to tie up 800000thb in a Thai Bank.

This is how I qualified for my original Non-Immigrant O A Retirement Visa.

Assuming approval this would allow me another up to two years in Thailand if used correctly.

This would take me to Age 76 by which time I may hang up my spurs and go home.... or not!

Thoughts, please...?

Why am I raising this now....? Simply because I am an Anal Retentive.

postscript...

And yes I know rules change so I acknowledge any replies can only be based upon current rules and not speculation. Thank you All.

Further Post script

Reason for not wanting funds in Thai bank account... I do have one

Is twice before I was victim of Government policy which cost me... once in Iran once in Greece so very wary of Government decisions. Especially here.

Just clarification... is there any reason the Thai Embassy in Australia would not allow back to back Non Immigrant O A multiple entry Long Stay based upon Retirement? If I went that route?

My embassy is still issuing the income declaration.

Will it still be valid in Chiang Mai in March 2019?

Sorry for a repeated question, but for how long is a income declaration issued by an embassy valid? If I remember correctly its 6 months but I am uncertain.
