Reference b visa extensions and specifically jomtien it appears now in the addition of the usual photos of the applicant out front of the business and inside with 4 members of staff (who pay social) we now need to have a few photos of activities we do, so I'm a restaurant GM and it's been suggested I submit photos of me showing menus to staff and checking invoices with the cashier, checked with a few other wp holders and their recent experience is the same, maybe a covid thing as last year they did not visit the premises at all

Answer summary

Recent changes in visa extension requirements for restaurant managers in Jomtien, Thailand now include not just typical photos but also 'action photos' depicting daily activities. This may reflect a trend due to COVID-19, as some immigration offices have previously shifted to virtual evaluations. Other work permit holders have reported similar experiences.

I had a report from a good friend that the immigration office in his area contacted him and did a zoom video conference at his office rather than an on site visit :O

BUT

Those "action photos" are nothing new and are required at most offices. I know a guy who is the owner/director of a company and he had to put on a suit, sit at a desk, have staff standing around him pointing at some fake paperwork, etc and do some "in action" photos to satisfy immigrations
