Damn! Just be polite, play dumb and innocent infront of the immigration officers, perhaps they will listen to you and let you apply for an extension.

@Ariel ******

yup, you can practically leave Thailand as long as your current visa is still valid. They might ask you to do a re-entry permit at the airport because thai immigration probably wants the workers to return back to the employers office for work but you can deny doing it, in which case your visa gets cancelled and thus also the work permit.

No quarantine, I just came back from hua hin to Bangkok a couple of days ago. Was there for 2 days.. everything is smooth

@Jessica ********

ok! Pardon me if I am wrong, thais don't speak english very well, when they say work permit they might be referring to a WP3 letter. I have seen lot of people calling both the letter and WP3 as same "WORK PERMIT". The question is why they are not letting you fix the application?, as i said everything is a headache here all the paperwork, my suggestion, look for some nice county where people understand basic english and paperwork process is not a big hassle.

@Tod ********

Exactly and if anyone enters Thailand on a tourist visa with an intension of converting it to a Non-b inside Thailand needs all his degrees and diploma's notorized. Isn't that right?

You need a WP3 letter not a work permit, work permit is a blue book that you receive from the labor department after you enter Thailand on a Non-b issued by the consulate. They are simply waiting for that letter since it's a requirement for them to stamp your passport with a sticker. Ask your school to process the work permit letter from the labor department, it takes a copy of your degree and the copy of all pages of passport. Usually the embassy should return the application to you if it's not complete, giving you a chance to complete it, but I don't understand why they are being non-cooperative here. I think this covid shit has medeled with their brains or something

@Benjamin *****

yeah, thats what I meant...in many cases the employer can cancel the work permit, particularly if the employee has moved to another city and is unable to cancel it in person.

I don't think you are required to show up at the employment office to cancel the work permit, you can ask the previous employer to do it and send a scanned copy of it, thats all

@Krzysztof ********

got it, thank you so much mate

@Krzysztof ********

I just received my first extension of stay?...do I still need to do a 90days report or that automatically counts as a 90day report?
