@Robert ******

I had a actual case. Glad you found the experience different for other employees when they applied. Maybe we are saying the same which I stated... Both the labor dept and immigration must be informed.

We checked with Kota Bahru and they require now that you are a shareholder as well as being a director.

@Lila *****

the visa is not tied to the work permit. You only have to cxl the wp then. Nothing changes on the visa.

Only the extension of stay based on business needs to be cxl and that is from immigration.

Visa bought from a Consulate is different then a extension of stay permit from Immigration.

@Lila *****

your company has to file monthly social fund and they also will be fined 20,000 baht if not notifying you have left within 15 days. The day after that you left starts the 500 baht fine from immigration. The best is to notify immigration a couple weeks before you will leave so your passport is stamped with a exit date.

Trying to cxl your wp and your extension the same day is a bit complicated. It’s not a matter of just showing up at immigration and say cxl my permit. You have to show

1) Letter to immigration from your company stating you resigned on whatever date

2) copy of the company affidavit

3) Withholding tax filing. If it was August 7th, you need July’s filing. If it was August 6, you need June’s filing.

4) passport or ID card of director signed.

5) passport copy of Yourself

6) copy of work permit

7) if you have cxl the wp. The copy of that.

For work permit

1) Company affidavit ...one copy signed by director

2) company stamp

3) director needs to sign the cancelation form

4) original work permit.

You cxl both the wp and permit on the same day. You either leave that day or get additional 7 days extension to leave the country.

You have to cxl both your work permit and your extension of stay permit based on business when you leave the company. Otherwise it’s 500 baht per day overstay charge.

so the certified is just her signature in ink. Thanks.

@Terry *********

how did you you show the certified copies of house registration and your wife’s ID card. A lawyer certify it ?

Only one parent can sponsor a foreign child. Sometimes CM will allow the other parent to sponsor the other kid. But then you will need two bank accounts in each of your names and I know of one case it was not allowed. Only one parent for the three girls they had.

Totally the receipt and says they must go and pick up the work permit on the 25th in person. How can they get that without the non B ?

If they have a work permit. They can get a 90 day visa from Laos or KL.

@Chris ****

they have been known to be the only consulate/ Embassy in the region to give non b visas without the wp3 letter.

They must of went over the quota and why they now are being more strict and giving to only Hong Kong residents.
