Yes you do thats what my 2nd company did, if the primary company agrees, the process is exactly the same. I will add it was Chonburi Labour Office 4 years ago and would think the same applies elsewhere

Thank you for the clarification. Do you know if it means he will take up 1 visa allocation from my company too? Our company has 2 allocations and we're planning to hire more expat.

If both companies are in the same province his employment with you can be added to the existing Work Permit, with the agreement of the first company.

How does the process work? The first company is ok with it. Do we proceed the work permit application on our end, or it is them who does it?

Hi,

As s business owner, am I able to legally hire a foreigner worker who already has a work permit with another company in Thailand?

This person is European, has a full time job with another company and proper work permit. I would like to hire him on a contract/consult basis in parallel to his full time job. Would he also need a work permit from me? I'm concerned as I need to make sure all employment contracts for my company is correct and legal as we will soon be audited for investment purposes.

I'm at lost to where to find this information. Any help would be appreciated

Thanks

That might not be as easy as I thought then since he hasn't got a work permit. If we manage to find 400k somewhere would it be necessary to show its movement from outside the country?

1. In English it should no be a problem.

2. There is no requirement to change it to misses and/or adopt your husbands name.

3. yes, you choose between one of the two.

4. It is possible to get a 60 day extension based on the marriage certificate if both of you attend immigration with passport, marriage certificate, your household registration book and ID-card. If you do not live where you are registered, take proof of actual residency with you (rental contract, utility bill).

5. You are already married. But to get the 1 year extension based on marriage you will need to notify the Thai government of the marriage abroad:

(1) Go to the British embassy to have the marriage certificate certified (Look at embassy website for details)

(2) Have it translated into Thai

(3) Have it certified by the Thai foreign Ministry, consular department at Chaeng Wattana Road

(4) Make copies/scans of all documents for future use

(5) go to any amphur and have the marriage registered in Thailand as well.

Of the registration you will get a khor rhor 22 certificate, which immigration wants to see for a 1 year extension of stay.

Easy to do all this before the end of June. if you can proof the income it would be better to go for the 1 year extension right away. (The 60 day extension is only given once per entry into Thailand, so you would lose it as something you can use in an emergency).

Thanks Mario2008 for the clear answers. We can proof income but however it is in a bank account with our joint name. It was ashamed as we brought in the required amount from the UK when we moved here, but unknowingly put in joint name as it was more difficult to open account with just his name. The money has been earning into that account as well. So if we have 60 more days, we will proceed to open an account with just his name on it (not quite sure how yet -- next on the list to research).

Do you the cost for 60days extension? I read that a new non-O in Laos will cost around 5000 (+travelling and hotel cost). I just want to compare the two..

Thanks again got to say I am shamed for being Thai yet cannot get a straight answers anywhere from my fellow countrymen or gov web!

Hi

My husband (British) and I (Thai) moved to Thailand just under a year ago. He has obtained a 1-year Non-O from Thai Embassy in the UK with our UK marriage certificate. Now his visa is running out in a month time (very unprepared of us). From what I researched so far it seems that we have 2 options; A new non-O from Lao, or Extension of Stay in Thailand. Here are some questions over the 2 choices I have

1. At Suvannakhet, can he get A new non-O with just UK marriage certificate and not Thai marriage certificate? (we are not yet registered in Thailand). Does it need to be translated, confirmed or any kind of certification?

2. My Thai ID still states MISS and I'm not planning to change my surname either, would that be a problem?

3. If we choose extension of stay, does he have an option between 400k in his bank account and 40k monthly income? I can't seem to find that piece of info on the gov website. I have seen the 40k monthly income mentioned once in one of the forum. Basically it should be fairy easy to prove 40k monthly income as we run a business with money coming in and out but to have a solid 400k we will have to wait for a while...

4. If extension of stay is an option then we need to extend his stay for another 2 months to get our finance sorted (whether its 40k or 400k) , what is the easiest way? (his Non-O already ran out but he went to KL just before it did so he got until end of June). Can we extend his stay for another 90 days somehow?

5. For extension of stay, do we need to be married in thailand?

Thanks a lot in advance
