Hi,

I am interested in starting an Online Retail business that will sell to Singapore and Hong Kong.

Am I legally able to operate from the Philippines as an Ex Pat?

Are you selling your own products online?
Is this your own website or is it similar to e-bay and amazon?
Is it merely advertising / sales / marketing?

I am selling my own products.

My preference is to have my own website but am exploring the options with Etsy.

It is for sales purposes.

If I choose to sell the products into other markets instead of the Philippines does this get around any restrictions on retail ownership laws?
