Can I work on a student visa in Thailand for a paid internship?

non-immigrant ED visa internships in Thailand student visa regulations paid internship visa restrictions and regulations Thammasat University work authorization in Thailand

ORIGINAL POSTER

I’m currently negotiating an internship. I’m currently on a non immigrant ed visa at Thammasat Uni. Company is asking if my student visa allows work in Thailand, as they will also pay a salary as part of internship program. Just doing some quick online research tells me that my current visa should allow me to undertake internship in Thailand but the only “red herring” I see is about paid internships.

Does anyone have experience or advice in this area?
