Hello,Before going to Laos to apply for non-b, wp3 have to do first, want to ask about WP3 how to do...
Answer summary
To complete WP3 for a Non-B visa application in Laos, your employer must visit the Ministry of Labor with all necessary documents. They will submit the WP3 application on your behalf and receive a confirmation that allows you to pick up your Work Permit when you show your Non-Immigrant B visa. Some provinces may allow this application while you are in Thailand, while others are more restrictive.

As basic rules, WP3 is WP application for a foreign (supposed-to-be) employee before coming to Thailand. Still some provinces allow your employer to apply even if you are staying in Thailand. Some provinces are more strict, not accept WP 3 application for a foreigner during he/she is staying in Thailand.

Though this is WP question, not visa...

your employer visits the Ministry of Labor, hands in the application method 3 with all supporting documents. He/She will get a smaller document that the application is in order and that you can pick up the Work Permit at a set date if you show the Non Immigrant B visa. This is an example of that form:

Your employer or one of his/her staff,

If it is your own company, you learned quickly the need of business partners, who can apply for you.

Or they can send one of the staff, which you need to get the Work Permit.

Using the application method 3 at the Ministry of Labor can NOT be done by yourself as this method is for an applicant who is abroad.

I need to go to the Labor Bureau myself. I have company information. What other information do I need?
