ORIGINAL POSTER

Almost visa related..... I have a colleague who is changing jobs therefore needs to change work permit and get new visa etc. My question is can she cancel the work permit at any labor office or does it need to be done at the office that issued the work permit? You don't need to tell me the procedure for doing everything I know how it is just the office location I am not sure about.

TLDR : Answer Summary

To cancel a work permit in Thailand, you must do so at the labor office where it was originally issued. This applies to both the Ministry of Labor and Immigration processes.

You cancel there where you got it. Same for Ministry of Labor and Immigration.
