Naturally some cultivars will have thicker skins than others so I would seek out ones with thinner skins.
Use your judgment, based on age, toughness and size of tomatoes. Also, how you are going to handle them.
If large, tougher skins and/or you're going to mash them by hand, I would remove the skins.
If many small tomatoes, tender skin and/or you will puree the soup in a blender or processor, you could leave the skins on.
