TLDR : Answer Summary
The user is uncertain about their visa status after quitting their job while on a single-entry non-B visa and inquires whether they can apply for a single-entry tourist visa or if they need a new passport. Comments suggest that prior visa history may affect their application and discuss concerns about potential declines based on their previous visa status.

The non-b is not the issue it's the extensive SETV history that works against you. I have similar history. I had a non-b quit the job and now do SETV. But I go to consulates further away (HCMI, Seoul, etc). New passport may help. Going to to Yangon.

given the changes that have taken place at the thai consulate in Penang I would say you picked a difficult consulate to try for a single entry tourist visa at. Good Luck (y)

ORIGINAL POSTEROk thanks robert and joseph sorry for make both of u confuse thanks again i try to work it out

Than you have a big chance to get a denial at application. New passport will do the trick as Consulates/Embassies do not use a database.

ORIGINAL POSTER@Robert ******
i already have one warning on 2017Robert *******
Fees are exempt if Malaysian applies for Visa at Thai Embassy or Consulate in Malaysia.
Robert *******
He is in Penang and need a visa to come back to Thailand, as we now know he can not apply for the Non Immigrant B visa, he has no papers of any company, and he has already 5 previous Tourist Visa in his passport. Only thing I can say try a new Tourist Visa, normally you get first the warning stamp before they actually deny the visa.

Your previous work permit expired on the day you quit your job. You had to cancel the work permit at Ministry of Labor that day.

Not have to be in that order, application WP using method 3, with papers from Labor Office and company, visit a Consulate or Embassy, get the Non Immigrant B visa, on return pick up the work permit.

You're employer can even apply for the Work Permit if the employee is not inside Thailand, or inside Thailand on a Visa Exempt Entry, Tourist Visa or any other Visa using the Work Permit Application method 3.
