Greetings. This thread is interesting.
I would be interested to hear more about the "freelance artist work permit" as things develop. Anyone know if the application form is available somewhere online? How detailed is the application form?
Steevee I am looking for something similar to you in Chiang Mai, so your experience is very informative. Thanks for posting.
The dummy foundation doesn't sound like a very good deal (except for the lawyer).
Are you stupid? Last time I was in the UK an off the shelf company cost 4,000baht, we used to pay 60,000baht for our companies formations, do you know why? If you don't then its better you just shut your gob because you are just showing how dumb you really are.Originally Posted by KAPPA
We also used a chartered accountant, he cost at least 5 times more than an ordinary accountant, he saved us more than any ordinary accountant could though, the sad thing about life is you pay for what you get.
OK you paid 60,000 baht for a company formation , so how does that make 100,000 not over priced?
BTW Sam Fauma of International Law in Phuket will set up a ( real ) foundation for free.
The rip off G A M Alliance told me 72,000 for a company. A Thai woman I know who already has a foundation told me she did it herself for about 2000 baht.

Update:
Ok 24 emails over 3 months later, and 5 separate visits and I'm told they aren't sure about my investor B visa Being OK to work on. This was excuse number 12.
(I went on over to Immigration to ask for a letter or a phone call assuring the DOE the visa was valid and proper to work on, as I was told by the head woman there some months ago. She was adamant it isn't her department and she could not get involved and promptly forgot how to speak English.)
Other excuses have been are I don't have a "certificate" ( to write? )
They are concerned about what I might write about as the "Security of the Nation is paramount" so made me insert I would only "write positive things about Thailand " on the application.
Oh yeah, I feel a book gurgling up along the lines of .. Two-Faced Liar-Land
The home I rent isn't the proper title, so the landlord isn't permitted to give permission. ( BS !! )
Oh and the syphilis test would expire before they could decide so I would have to get a new one.
That pretty much cinched it that no way am I getting the permit.
So I really don't know why they are lying about it, other than they are Thai and can't help but lie and they enjoy harassing foreigners?
Disgusting wal-eyed bastard, too. Picking his nose and then fingering my passport.
