• Please know that by law, only the sellers, shop owners with Thai staff or non-Thai staff with a valid work visa can sell things. There may be random police checks during the festival. If you don't have Thai staff or a work permit, we do not recommend setting up a shop on the main grounds. You may say something like, "I'm just hanging out near the shop" or "I'm just watching the shop for my “Thai friend” if the police come by and "mistakenly think" you are selling goods without a work visa.
