Hi guys.

I was living in Thailand for 3 yrs on a work permit that ended late March.

I have dual nationality and left Thailand on the passport that my work permit was on.

I have returned early April on my other passport, Reason for changing passports was simply because my other one was full.

I will be leaving Thailand in the next few days to apply for my DTV.

Has anyone had any experience with changing passports etc, just worrying that it might look suspicious even though Thai immigration had no issues with it.

DTV holder here, now would like to apply for a teaching job. So: German national, master's degree equivalent (economics and political science), my English is close to mother tongue and my computer skills are top. Since last December: got a soft-power DTV (Muay Thai). Now I'd like to apply for teacher jobs on nice Thai islands - how is this possible with DTV? What could be done?

Anybody with experience in this regard - would be highly appreciated.

Thanks!

If I am offered a teaching job in Thailand do I need to leave the country to apply for the Visa? A school has told me that I will need to go to Laos, specifically to apply. They also told me I need to pay for the Visa and Permit myself and it will be reimbursed over time, can anyone tell me if this is normal and what the average cost would be overall? Thank you

Hi, helping my boyfriend who has some visa questions about his visa & work permit:

- He currently has a work permit under a Thai company, and it will expire on June 4th.

- His extension of stay is valid until July 31st but he isn’t planning to renew the work permit and won’t be working with the company anymore.

Is he allowed to stay in Thailand until July 31st (non b visa stamp), or does his permission to stay end once the work permit expires?

Does he need to cancel the work permit officially or inform immigration?

He’s planning to do the DTV in his home country. TIA!

I have a question regarding Non-O visa

If I need to change my company(workplace) can I just cancel my work permit form old employer and apply work permit with the new employer and extend my visa or how this works?

Overstay question

I had a work permit and an agent throughout the WP process. Year 2 of WP, I had to go to Chamchuri Square on my own for the 90-day reporting (agent stopped holding my hand). I mixed up the reporting deadline dates and overstayed one day. Went the following day, paid the 2000 baht fine and everything was fine from then on (yes, I got the black mark in my passport, but have since renewed my passport and it's not in the new passport).

Would this affect my DTV application?

Trying to find out whats the best way forward:

I've been in thailand for 5 months (1 visa run with short overstay). Tried to open a company and get a wp but got scammed (hence the overstay).

im considering going for a few months to bali, applying there and coming back on DTV.

i have the money in the bank, but my income is very unstable as i do some group coaching twice a year and thats where most of my income comes from

i have my own company, could pay myself a salary

any advice or things i should read on? would be greatly appreciated. im a south american national but also have european passport if it makes any difference.

How have people managed to get a post paid sim registered to their name? True move told me I need a work permit, which I think might be BS. Bangkok bank didn’t warn me before deleting my accounts yesterday just as I was trying to pay for something 😜
