Hi everyone.

I have a non-b visa with work permit (3 months extended to 1 year, obtained in Malaysia).

I found out my Dad was unwell in hospital, so I left Thailand to visit him (with a re-entry permit) and hoped to have returned by now.

Unfortunately with stage 4 kidney failure he is not improving, therefore I wont be able to return to Thailand soon.

I was hoping for some clarity on how/if I can cancel my work permit and visa from the UK. I want to do this properly and abide by the laws.

If necessary I could try fly to Thailand, cancel them and fly out again, but of course that is a lot of money, so would avoid if possible.

Any help is really appreciated, thank you

I now hold 2 visas and a work permit. The visa I have been using is a business visa, the "owns 49% of the company" kind. The work permit is associated with that visa.

I now have a DTV and I intend to enter Thailand using the DTV.

I need to cancel the business visa and work permit. Is that something I can do myself? What is the procedure for that?

I currently have a work permit and business visa for the last year and 1/2 through a company I recently sold my shares in. The remaining owners of the company plan to close the company soon. But I am not sure of the timetable.

I am aware that if a company doesn’t cancel someone’s work permit and then I leave Thailand without a re-entry permit which effectively cancels my non-b visa. It can flag up on the system and then they will receive a fine.

What is the process to ensure they don’t get this fine when I leave to get a DTV in about 2 weeks. Do they simply need to inform the labour department to cancel my work permit? I want to try and inform them of the process to make it as easy for them to complete. As they are a small company with limited knowledge about these matters.

Hi everyone, I am trying to seek advise with regards to my WP and extension of stay on my non b visa. Currently, my work permit and visa extension is dated til 2nd October. I will not be continuing work with the current company (BOI). Will I have to cancel the WP and extension of stay on my own ? And how should I do it ? Many thanks in advance.

Switching Non-B 1-Year Extension to DTV in Laos

Hi everyone,

I’m hoping to get some advice on switching my 1-year single entry Non-B extension to a Digital Nomad Visa (DTV) in Laos.

Has anyone here gone through a similar situation? Were there any specific steps you had to take before leaving Thailand? I’m a bit concerned about how this process might go, so any tips or experiences would be really appreciated!

Thanks in advance!

I resign from my work on 1 August.

I go out on 7 August, I back on 9 August.

So my work non-b visa cancelled.

My work place cancelled my work permit on 15 August with date of 7 August.

Did I overstay between 1 August to 7 August?

Hi, need some advice on the following situation: my work permit will be cancelled on the 1st October. I was told by employer that if I want to keep staying in Thailand I just need to fly out the country before that date and return on a regular visa exemption 60 stamp. Is that so? Or maybe I can simply go for a border run to Cambodia? Not sure what is the optimal course of action here. Thank you 🙏

Need advise

My friend is cancelling her work permit and nonB to change into visa exemption 60days (border bounce). Can she do it in vientiane via train 133 (bangkok to khamsavath)? If so, where can she get the entry and exit stamps? Nong Khai station or does she have to go through khamsavath vientiane? Thank you 🙏

I am on Work Permit and Non-B VISA and wish to convert to ED/Guardian. I will cancel my work Permit. Do I need to exit the country or can I do the conversion within the Kingdom. I have all the necessary paperwork.

If we are leaving ONE day AFTER our Non-Imm B VISA expires, what should we do to prepare for departure? (Jan 17)

Do we need to do anything?
