TLDR : Answer Summary
Yes, you can change your work permit from one company to another while on a non-B visa; however, there are specific rules and conditions. It’s commonly noted that the change can occur if the work permit is directly associated with the original company. Some comments indicate that if the visa specifies a company name, it complicates the process of changing companies without updating the visa. Therefore, it's advisable to consult the relevant immigration authorities or professionals for guidance on specific procedures and requirements.

Agree

On a B visa yes you can change companies, on an extension of stay you can not change. I have seen Penang add company name in handwriting but recent visa for several of my staff from KL or Hong Kong had no such additions
Abdullah ******
Yes u can but there is some rules of probation period, in Arabic countries law says that if your contract is maximum 2years with company u can leave within 6months

@Abdullah *****
Thailand is spelt with an “a” and there is no probation period to change as long as the visa has enough time valid to complete WP application process, usually 1-2 weeks

Just few countries may be thiland is one of them

@Abdullah *****
but it’s not valid and creates confusion, should I quote some invalid U.K. rules just to make it more confusing, best to stay on point for Thailand only
Abdullah ******
I know but I just gived him example
Chay ******
Thailand is not an Arabic country, and your statement is wrong
Forbes *******
