Definition of a business and/or "working"?

Not sure what Andy is doing in Koh Kong, but I'm sure the process there is probably less formal compared to registering a business in Phnom Pehn.
Also, is the business registered in Andy's name or a Khmer partner?

Ours was co-registered with a Khmer business partner... I imagine Andy has either been sold a bridge in Sydney, or someone has done him a solid.

I just done a solid. It's my opinion Timmy, that as long as you keep your Airbnb on the hush no one will be the wiser. According to Cambodian law you should be taxed on any income you get whilst you are resident here, so that would mean double tax for me as there's no reciprocal arrangement. I have remained silent on the issue and thus have not paid tax. If you receive your UK pension and live here as it's income you should be taxed in Cambo. I have no idea why people have this obsession with paying their taxes, the locals would think you mad for volunteering any information.

Thanks, that is my feeling too. Meanwhile there is the question of my visa, I have an EB but no WP. I could change it to an ER but I'm not even 50. Or an EG, but that cannot be extended beyond 12 months.

Stop being so white. By law, your employer has to give you a WP, not you. SO there's no way technically you could resolve the issue of not having a WP, despite the fact that you just bought an EB visa. Big fans of Kafka. When you read the newspaper and the official quote says he can't find it right now, or he's too busy, or it's not his department? That's how it works here. My wife has all my papers, and she's in Kampot for a week. Come back later and it'll all be fixed

Maybe,might be wrong, but it says u cant extend beyond 1 year BUT couldn't you leave after 13 months and come back in with an ordinary visa again and extend it again?

I was wondering the same thing! Being less formal. The business is registered solely in my name only.

StroppyChops Lets not be quick to judge.

Stroppy are these the licences I need to operate? Works Department and Immigration say yes. All my papers according to the authorities are in order. Plus I see no difference in the licences for the westerners and the Khmer business in this area. Meaning Khmer have the same.

Work Permit applied for online.

Of course, but I would just hate to get caught out and denied entry (for whatever reason). Maybe it's just paranoia.
