"Permission to work in Thailand (Digital Work permit)" from the LTR site. What exactly does this mean? TIA
Answer summary
The term 'Permission to work in Thailand (Digital Work permit)' refers to the ability granted under certain Long-Term Residence (LTR) visas, allowing individuals (excluding remote workers) to obtain employment in Thailand. It enables holders to secure a work permit sponsored by a Thai employer, which will be issued digitally rather than traditionally on paper.

That means if you have one of the LTRs that is not the remote worker category, you can get a job in Thailand and you can get a work permit sponsored by your Thai employer. The work permit will be digital, not a piece of paper.
