  That article just confuses me. It says it is ok and then contradicts it a paragraph later. Eg: "Digital nomads – people working remotely or running online businesses – in Thailand can legally work there on tourist visas" But one paragraph down: "It is unlikely that travellers will be granted a re-entry stamp after two or three visa runs. If your passport is stamped “O-I” (out-in) upon arrival, it is unlikely that you will be able to re-enter the country again should you decide to do a visa run"

    Don't let the article confuse you. It's 100% illegal to work in Thailand on a tourist visa despite the comments of the Chiang Mai immigration office. http://ashleyconnor.co.uk/blog/2014/09/07/working-in-thailand-as-a-digital-nomad/ http://ashleyconnor.co.uk/blog/2014/09/07/working-in-thailan...

    It is confusing two separate ideas. One is that it is ok to work while on a tourist visa, the other is that doing multiple visa runs (regardless of whether you work) is not ok. The out-in problem is true of many countries and has nothing to do with working.
