I feel you. We’ve been here a long time. Immigration really won’t do anything. A lot of foundations are advising their volunteers to do the same. It’s weird, and I totally get the caution.

Also worth noting — children under 15 (14? 16?) can overstay their tourist/exemption/any visa without repercussion.

What many families do is have the parents get visas and let the children overstay. 🤷‍♂️

Do I need a work permit for facilitating a non-profit group meeting in Thailand?

Thomas ********

no, it has more to do with any kind of service involved. If someone’s offering a service, free or otherwise, it’s likely in need of a work permit.

volunteering implies working for a foundation, but that’s not relevant because we aren’t 👍🏼

Thomas ********

we aren’t personally facilitating or anything — just part of a structured play group (and I don’t think the facilitator has a WP).

Curious because we’ve wanted to get people together in an informal way in order to provide a similar kind of support for parents in a group setting, but wasn’t sure if that would constitute need for a WP or not.
