Hi everybody, i need your help please, do i need approval from my current employer to cancel my extension of stay and wp?
Answer summary
To cancel your work permit in Thailand, you do not need approval from your current employer as you can self-cancel it. However, when it comes to canceling your extension of stay, you may need to provide documentation from your employer, as some have experienced difficulties without it.

For your work permit no. You can self cancel that, and then in theory you should be able to go and cancel your extension based on you no longer holding a work permit BUT I have seen people need documentation from their employer to actually get their extension canceled.
