How long does it take for an employer to obtain a work permit for an employee in Thailand, and is a return ticket required for a Non-B visa application?

The time it takes for an employer to obtain a work permit (WP) for an employee in Thailand largely depends on the efficiency and organization of the employer. If the employer is well-prepared, the process can be completed relatively quickly. Regarding the Non-B visa application, it is generally not required to have a return ticket, but it may vary depending on the discretion of the visa officer.
