Go and speak to the Labour Department. They can be quite helpful when they want to be.

Depending on the type of business you MAY not need one (incoming abuse alert).

All depends on the circumstances.

You need the work permit to carry out any work in Thailand. The non b ( 90 day) you currently have does not allow you to work, just allows you to obtain a work permit that, in turn, allows you to work.

Even with the initial non b, you shouldn't be carrying out any work until the Work Permit is in place.

If your company is unable to furnish a Work Permit then you're done. You'll need to find another employer.

Depends. Passport copies .

Passport pictures yes. Tm30 who knows??? Pen definitely

VOA can apply for extension and be refused obtaining another 7 days from date of issue

That's so unfair 😐

@Henrik ****

yes. I know all that. I'm asking for recent experience from Indian passport holders. Not sure I could have worded it more clearly. And for visa exempt it's 20,000 and 40,000

I guess you have to try it and find out. Please update. Thank you.

@Kool ******

thanks. I'm asking if anyone with Indian passport has recent experience. 😍

@Brandon ***********

Sure. Was asking if anyone with Indian passport has recent experience. I'll edit the question to make it a bit clearer😉

No. You'll need an appointment for both.

Phuket is an abattoir. Phang Nga is much nicer. If you get your residence certificate in Phang Nga immigration they usually forget to charge you the 300 thb fee.
