TLDR : Answer Summary
The post discusses a friend's recent refusal of a NON B Visa in Kuala Lumpur, prompting questions about potential new rules. Comments indicate that this may not be a new rule, with suggestions that embassies may stop issuing consecutive single-entry NON B Visas. Additional advice includes considering reapplication in a different location or obtaining a new passport to meet immigration requirements.

I'm thinking on what is next? Without the visa, she is not allowed to work inside Thailand anymore.

If she got all the documents of application back or can get a new set from her employer, maybe try again in Kota Barhu, north of Malaysia before making way back into Thailand.

If that does not work, only option I can think of is to get a new passport, get all documents again, apply in another country for the Non Immigrant B visa and start work again. In the mean time company have to get their act together to meet the requirements of Immigration in a few months time.

The note looks self explanatory. They are not prepared to continue to issue a single entry non b visa one after another anymore.

Imo, you will likely see more Embassys and consulates going the same route.

Time to get extensions

First time I see it is denied by this reason.

Not a new rule, the English text explains how this visa should work and that is from the beginning of this visa.
