ORIGINAL POSTER

Thank you. I just picked up my non-b (work permit) visa from the embassy in Makati. 

Will I have to pay any entry fees when I arrive at the airport? It is my first time entering the country this way. 

Thank you

TLDR : Answer Summary

When arriving in Thailand with a non-B visa, you should not have to pay any additional entry fees. You will present your passport and visa at passport control, where your documents will be stamped, allowing you to proceed to collect your luggage. Note that the non-B visa allows you to apply for a work permit, which is required to work in Thailand.

You shouldn't have to pay anything additional when entering the country. You will just get in the passport control line and show your passport and visa and they will stamp your passport and you will then go to collect your luggage.
