Hi guys, I am having a job ( not teaching related) and apply for Non Immigration B Visa, single entry and gonna extend to one year after that. Do I need to add University degree in the application? If yes, does it need to be in English/ Thai, notarised/ legalised or just need University stamp on it?

Do I need to buy 1-way ticket or 2-way ticket flight?

Thanks

TLDR : Answer Summary
When applying for a Non-Immigrant B Visa in Thailand, it's advisable to check directly with your employer or the Thai consulate for specific documentation requirements, as they may vary. While some experiences suggest that a scanned copy of your University degree might be accepted, others indicate it may not be necessary for non-teaching roles. Regarding flights, it's essential to confirm if a one-way or round-trip ticket is required based on your situation.

As an 'owner', Shareholder and Director of my Thai Company I was told by the Visa Agent (my Accountant) that I had to provide a copy (simple scan & print) of my University Degree. I doubted this to be true that it was required. But I had the original - made a scan - then printed a copy. Signed it on the bottom and it was included in my WP, B Visa and one year Extension. It was easy and harmless and maybe beneficial - so I provided it.

your employer should tell you what documentation you're going to need to apply for the 90 day Non-B visa. Check the thai consulate's website you're going to apply at and see what their requirements are.

I don't believe a degree is necessary for non-teaching jobs.

That's a boiler-plate application and for the flight out of thailand it's usually needed only for a tourist visa

Thank Todd, I have other documents ready, just need to check the degree.

how about the flight ticket? On the visa application form, date of arrival and departure from Thailand are needed to fille in.
