Hi

Planning to relocate to Thailand. How to apply work permit for my Indonesia helper?
Answer summary
Applying for a work permit for an Indonesian domestic helper in Thailand can be quite challenging. The process typically requires the helper to be employed by a Thai company, which may necessitate setting up such a company. It's advised to seek legal or accounting assistance for guidance. Additionally, securing a work permit for an Indonesian is generally more difficult than for neighboring nationals like Burmese, Khmers, or Laotians who can apply under different migrant schemes. Costly fees from agencies are also a concern, and proving that a Thai person can't perform the required job can be a significant hurdle.

You are going to have a hard time convincing anyone the a Thai person couldn't do the job, especially when Thailand is 5th in the world in medical care.

Very hard as they would need a wp same as a westerner

Unlike Burmese,Khmers and Laotians who can get a Non L-A visa and wp under the migrant scheme

Not an easy task. Work permits need the person to be employed by a Thai company. You could set one up to do so but the logistics is outside of the scope of a visa help forum. You’d need to contact lawyers or accountants to advise a way to do so.
