Cheers!

That would be the Department of Employment saying that. Not immigration.

Did they try to do it before the June 20th when your extension expired?

only after it has expired. that is why it is a big problem now.

What kind of application should we do? My employer are quiet confused with the process as we have tried many times with CW with no luck. They said they cannot process my new work permit without a visa.

Hi,

My old VISA (Extension of stay based on employment (NON-B)) is already expired last week 22nd June 2020. I went to immigration to ask what to do and how to extend my VISA since I have a new employer who will issue me a VISA (Same VISA NON-B).

They cut my old expired VISA and issued me a new one based on amnesty.  Now I am trying to get a new NON-B Visa with my new employer but they kept on saying that I have to get out of the country.

Please help me! I've been going back n forth (LABOR/IMMIGRATION) with no luck.

Not exactly.

If you have a valid work permit they could only apply for the work permit and then your current one would have to be canceled for it to be issued.

Are you on a 90 entry from a non-b visa or were you issued a extension of stay based upon working issued by immigration?

No, my VISA now is for 1 year which will expire this 20th.

You new employer could apply for your work permit to get a work permit application approval letter to change your current extension of stay to the new employer. Then current work permit could be canceled after the new extension is issued so the new one can be issued.

You cannot change back to a tourist visa without leaving the country. After your current permit to say is canceled or endsy you be staying in the country under the amnesty until July 31st.

So meaning to say I do not have to cut my current NON-B visa (Previous Employer) and this will be their basis to apply for a new work permit (new employer) ? 

Thank you.

Hi all,

I would like to know what to do with my current situation.

I have a new employer but my current visa is tied up with my work permit from my previous employer....the previous employer already gave me the cancellation letter to go to labor and immigration to cancel my current visa...

If I switch back to Tourist Visa, how can I get non-b again which will be issued to me by my new employee without going outside the country which I usually do before but due to covid-19 this will not be possible...

Thank you.

The day you quit your job your extension ended as well, so technically you are on overstay now.

It could very well be that nobody will notice this, but you better leave the country as soon as possible.

How would the immig. officer know? I quit, but there is none in my passport that states that I'm not connected with my employer.

They could cancel the work permit if you have signed a power of attorney form.

You have to be present with your passport for them to cancel the extension of stay. If you are on a 90 day entry from non-b visa it would not be cancelled.

What if I don't show up? I never signed anything for them too. 

I left last week. and Planning to leave Thailand entirely on 15th of Feb, my visa extension is until September 2020. 

Will there be any problem? Thanks for your answer.

Hi,

I quit my job recently, and not on a speaking terms with my employer/HR.

My question is. Can they cancel my VISA/WP (Extension based on Employment) without me accompanying them to the Immigration/Labor Office?

Thank you,
Kim

Thank you

Hi Ubonjoe,

What is the process? I currently have the permission to stay based on my current employers visa and work permit.

What are the documents needed for my new employer to apply for new working permit and visa under their company? I believe I have to leave the country? 
 

Thank you.

You could change employers without leaving the country.

You new employer would have to apply for you new work permit to get a work permit application approval letter and then with supporting documents you could cancel your current extension with a termination letter from your current employer and then apply for a new  extension. The after your current work permit the new one could be issued.

If not then it would be best to cancel your current extension before leaving the country to avoid problems when apply for a new one. Some immigration offices are insisting on it being formally canceled before they will issue a new one.

Dear All,

I am currently employed and seeking to transfer to a new employer.

Is it fine not to cancel my current work permit and process a new one with my new employer?

I can cut my visa by going on a border run to cambodia. 

Please let me know whats the best thing to do. 

Thank you

get an agent to sort it out. if you are in pattaya I can recommend a great girl who ran everything for me for 8 years. best to get it sorted. I had the wrong address in my work permit and it cost me 80k in 'fees' I even went through the courts and paid the official 8500thb official fine. I gave up doing it myself after that.

thanks but no, u got ripped by a large sum. I had fix mine by showing up in the labor office, they stamped a note at the back noting the changes made. Thanks all for your help! 

it's a hassle because when i tried opening a bank account, the incorrect name on my work permit must be followed as per the bank officer. 

Hi there, the name on my work permit was encoded incorrectly.

My middle name was encoded as my first name on my work permit. How do I request to correct this and what are the requirements needed? I hope someone can help me.

Thank you very much.

Hello,

I hope someone can help me about my problem. 

My current non-b visa from Laos will expire this Dec-19 2018, I would like to know if I can apply with less than 15 days remaining on my current non-b visa. 

I will apply for visa extension this coming 10th of Dec since my documents are not yet ready (I already have working permit). Please let me know what options I have and if this is possible.

Thank you very much.

yes, I am paid base on the minimum salary required for my nationality. nowadays its too hard to get extension in Chaengwattana. 

Dear all..I went to the immigration office last week to have my non-b visa extended, but due to some problem(missing docs) the officer denied us the extension of stay(visa expires this coming 22nd). I want to know what other options we have since I alreadt have work permit with me. Thank you.

You employer will need to submit proof that income taxes have been for the period of your employment since you have not worked long enough to of done a tax return for last year.

So in that case there is no need for me to file Personal Income Tax for the fiscal year 2017 since I am yet to be employed the time (Obviously lol) and Immigration will not ask me for this requirement and only the Company should present the proof that they paid the tax for the year 2017 correct? Thank you

It will not be a non-b visa. It will be a one year extension of the 90 day entry from your non-b visa.

Thank you for clarifying. I also read the link you sent me. I am earning the exact amount as stated on the Annex A of Table of Income for Criteria. I will receive 2 months of salary by the time my non-b expires. As per the link you gave me one of the requirement is to submit a personal income tax, in my situation, am I still required to submit one? 

so to sum it up, this is the same non immigrant visa (B) but has different set of document required since I already have work permit and applying for an extension am I right? Thanks.

What kind of paper work that would be? Is it the same when I applied for non-b? Thank you

Hello,

The Labour Department issued me a blue book and this is my first issuance of the Work Permit (Valid for 6 months only). Right now I am still on a non-b which will expire after 3 months. Should I go right away to the immigration changewattana to process the extension visa or should I wait 21 days prior to the expiration of my current non-b visa and have it extended afterwards?? Please clarify. 

Thank you.
