Finding a freelancer in Thailand?
There are many ways that you can successfully locate a good freelancer here, and not only by using freelancer websites alone.
Let’s take a look.
Key Takeaways
- Facebook is one of the best places to find freelancers in Thailand, with active groups for web developers, graphic designers, translators, video editors, and interior designers.
- Most of those groups run in Thai, so a short post in Thai gets more replies.
- The locally popular platform Fastwork.co is worth checking alongside international sites like Upwork, Freelancer.com, and Fiverr.
- Topic-specific networking events found on Meetup.com and Eventbrite are useful for meeting skilled freelancers in person, such as web development meetups for developers or language events for translators.
- If you pay a freelancer through a Thai company, the company withholds 3% of each fee, gives the freelancer a withholding certificate, and files the tax with the Revenue Department.
- Many Thai freelancers have limited English, so for complex projects you may need a bilingual assistant to relay detailed instructions accurately.
