    I have been researching it on ThaiVisa among other places and the impression I got were that its a gray zone and probably not legal but no one had a definite answer to it.

          Do not have in writing, but my lawyer explained it like this: So long as the company you are deriving income from has no permanent establishment in thailand than you can legally work without a work-permit.

          That being said, the other option you can do is set up a co. ltd. here, hire a few thais who won't actually work for you, and get a work permit. Monthly this will cost around 8000baht to maintain. This has many benefits (visas, etc) but it does put you on the radar.

              BAD ADVICE. DO NOT DO THIS.

              Having a Thai company and a work permit and the requisite amount of Thais working for you makes you liable to random visits by Inspectors to make sure that these jobs do exist and that the named people are doing the specific work stated on their employment contracts at the places and times they are supposed to be doing it at.

              However, sitting in Thailand remotely working in another country is not against any actual current Thai Law, but is also not something you should walk around the street with a large banner announcing, as who knows how long until it will be.

                As other have said, just keep it to yourself. Do not mention to anyone what you do, make something up.... daytrader etc. If ANY thai person or farang knew what you do, and later on down the line you have a falling out as friends or whatever, you could very well have the police seize your pc and go to jail.

                      Its not a big deal, why would it even happen to slip out? Tell them you do sell ladies purses on the internet and even setup a fake website for it and that is only if they ask.
                      Make sure your computer requires a password to login, and always make sure you lock it when you step out for any reason. This all may sound like its some big scary thing, but really its pretty simple and easy.

                      To be extra cool just run a VPN tunnel to your dedicated servers. This will allow all your traffic to flow freely and encrypted. The only traffic they will see on your home ISP is encrypted traffic back and forth from your dedicated servers. Your dedicated server is the one then connecting to all the sites you are visiting.

                      How much income are you going there with? How do you plan to live and did you decide on a city yet?

                          Exactly, you need to employ 4 Thai workers per work permit.

                          Sitting in Thailand remotely is not illegal but if I am not mistaken if you stay more than 180 days you are deemed a resident and liable for taxes.

                            No need for all this.

                            Just keep a low profile, if anyone asks say you live off your savings, or that you rent your property back home.

                            Nobody really cares to know more.
