Many sellers on ebay refuse to send goods to Thailand and many Thai sellers also refuse to send goods to Thailand. When I query them they say it is because the Thai postal service is slow, unreliable and parcels often go "missing". #27

OMG please ! There are always people that weigh in with the WP line when its not needed. The chances of being caught in your own home, on an Ebay page, actually doing what they may define as work, by police is so remote its not even worth thinking of. You might aswell worry about being struck by lightning 3 times in a night. In fact you would have to be a complete fool to get caught even if someone did tell the police about you which is unlikely as you are in your own home. Its simple, you do the internet work in your home, you send the girlfriend to the post office to do the packets, send the money from your Paypal to your bank. A transfer from Paypal could be anything. Job done. I think there comes a point where some advice is just plain not helpful and advice on these forums should really be a bit more down to earth and realistic as opposed to just quoting the rules all the time. qazwsx38. I suppose yes the correct answer is technically yes you would need a permit to do Ebay but there is a 99.99999999999999999999% chance you would never be get caught unless you are a complete fool. Just get on there and sell. Good luck with the business. Good point you made. I will probably do your advice. Thanks for the advice and incouragement. #30

I have no complaints about the Thai postal service, but a few years back parcels often went missing, and I think the image sticks. I was impressed during the floods I had a parcel delivered by canoe! #31

No WP is really needed if you are just logging into some websites or contacting customers by e-mail. But if you are doing the actual physical delivery you might want to consider it a WP. I've read stories of farang getting busted. I'm assuming somebody in the delivery store(DHL?) snitched on them.

I am also thinking of selling on ebay in Thailand and to stay there for a long period of time, it appears the the only option is a one year business visa, with the hope of extending that when the year expires.
From what I have read about this type of visa they require an invitation letter from a thai company which I obviously don't have. Does anyone know if being an ebay trader makes me eligible for a business visa? Any help is much appreciated thankyou |
