Hi, i got a company in Bangkok and 3 monthes ago i remove myself from the payroll as the company is going to close soon. My accountant insure me that it was not a problem asI have a working permit expiring on 1st of july and my visa is expiring on 31 of October 2023.

As i want to do a retirement visa and my working permit is expiring soon i went to the Ministry of Labour to cancel my working permit first then my visa as it should be the way.

When i arrive to the ministry of Labour they told me to first cancel my visa so i went to the immigration to cancel my visa but they told me that as i remove myself from the payroll 3 monthes ago my visa was automatically cancelled and they told me they are going to blacklist me and that i cannot go back to Thailand. However during theses past monthes i ve travelled outside the country and back many times and i never had any problem at the airport immigration.

After discussing with my accountant they told me that i need to leave the country today or i will be blacklisted. Then when i come back to Thailand ask to the immigration to “not stamp on the re-entry” if i want to make a retirement visa. Then go back to the immigration and cancel my previous visa then pay a fine of 20 000 for overstay.

So now i’m outside Thailand without having cancelled my working permit which expires on 1 st of july and my non B visa not cancelled as well

Any possible way to arrange this situation without going through the fine? Did they tried to to scam me with this overstay? As i could leave and back many times during theses past monthes?

Hi guys, quick question.

My wife is on a non-o spouse extension attached to my visa. I am a teacher. (I'm sorry if the nomenclature is not correct, her stamp says non o)

She will cancel and change her visa soon, my employer will issue a letter to cancel.

My question is about dates. Will she have a window of time that she can leave the country after cancellation, 7 days for example, or will she need to leave that same day? I'd like to be sure about what dates we need on the letter.

Thanks!
