ORIGINAL POSTER

Hello everyone. I have a question regarding Work Permit. I want to take a sabbatical leave for 6 months. If I cancel my current  work permit and then 6 month later can I apply for a new work permit with the same company? FYI I have PR. So I am not concern about stay permit. Please share your experience.

The user is inquiring about the procedure and implications of canceling their work permit in Thailand to take a 6-month sabbatical. They want to know if they can reapply for a new work permit with the same employer after the sabbatical, noting that they currently hold Permanent Residency and are not concerned about their stay permit.
