Something else question please.

A good friend has been working for a large food distribution company in Bangkok. She has now left this company and has been offered a similar job for a different company (in the same industry) in Phuket.

Her contract with the original company states that she cannot work for a competitor for 2 years.

My question is: can anyone offer an opinion whether this is likely to be legally enforceable, or just hot air.

In Oz this would be considered an unreasonable restraint of trade and not legally enforceable, but TIT…

Work Permit question.

It used to be that, in order to work in a second province you needed to have a branch located in that province.

Is it still the case?

Hi, I left Thailand a week ago because I got a job in Japan without cancelling my working permit. Is it possible for my old school to cancel my working permit without my work permit book ? Or can I cancel the work permit while am outside the country?

When visiting Thailand again will I be charged for not concelling my work permit and leaving on a re-entry ?

Thank you in advance.
