TLDR : Answer Summary

To apply for a work permit as a teacher in Thailand, you will need to gather necessary documentation from your employer, including specific paperwork required by the school. It's important to note that apart from the standard identification documents like passport copies and application forms, you'll also need to provide a specific size photo, which differs from regular passport photo sizes.

After getting all the paperwork from the school you will work at, and the rest of the stuff like passport copies, application forms, what lots of people miss is the picture size needed. It is not a standard passport photo size, it is a smaller size. They don't accept regular size passport photos.

I dread to think how much paperwork is given in country then considering the amount I provided to the UK embassy for my non-B.
