Comment on Ask HN: How to hire digital nomads nearby?

Comments

Have you considered incorporating in a digital nomad hot-spot country (Thailand comes to mind), renting an office in a co-working space there, and hiring multiple nomads into it at once?

It would be nice if remote companies provided co-working office space for their employees / contractors. And at that point, you may as well hire two in the same place.

Sounds like a good way to get arrested, fined and/or jailed, deported and barred from re-entering the country.

Edit: before someone complains "s/he said incorporated". Yeah, but are you really going to fuck around getting 4 local Thai staff for every "nomad" you want to sponsor for a business visa and work permit, only for them to fuck off 3 months later?

It defeats the purpose. You may as well just hire local staff - you can pay them less than a foreigner and still be above local wages, no visas, no work permits (well except your own, which having local staff would help)
