Hello,

I'm under married visa, can i apply for a working permit or i must to have non-b visa first?

Thanks for your answers

Answer summary

If you are on a marriage visa (or extension of stay based on marriage to a Thai national), you can apply for a work permit without needing to switch to a Non-B visa. Your employer can provide the necessary documentation to help you apply for the work permit directly.

jsut being on a marriage visa or extension doesn't mean you can apply for a work permit BUT if you get a job offer your employer can give you documentation to go apply for a work permit at the ministry of labour without having to switch to a Non-B visa .

Yes, you can get WP directly with Non-O (marriage).

A marriage visa/ extension of stay based on marriage to a Thai national/ extension of stay based on raising half-Thai children are *NOT* employment prohibitive visas. You can get a work permit on those visas.
