I am in the same position, tried everything possible but no chance to get the Non-B inside of Thailand. And the Non-B you‘ll need for applying for the work permit.

If you hear anything different, please let me know 😉

If it is a foreign company registered under the BOI, maybe, but if it is a Thai company you would need to leave the country in order to get your type B visa from a Thai embassy. Just curious. What visa extension are you currently in Thailand on? Also, if you are the actual investor, and it is over bt10million, you might have another option

If you are a manager in a Thai company does that not supply a work permit?

. It's not that simple. You need to meet certain requirements as a foreigner to open and be a member of staff to obtain a work permit linked to that business. Being a part owner of a business doesnt always mean you are a member of staff, which requires a work permit.
