Immigration crackdowns on nominee structures here in Thailand seem not to have impacted tourism, most likely because most people using visa exemption are real tourists who are interested only in tourist activities.

Thai Immigration crackdowns are targeting illegal businesses and nominee structures no matter what nationality is involved but the demography of each location may be a factor.

A recent incident involving a foreigner arrested for a hit-and-run charge has now escalated as the foreigner is also involved in running a business which is considered a restricted occupation in Thailand.
