+1 to Savanakhet. i think most friendly and best place to get any kind of visa

80% of the hotels will ask your passport or thai driving license. only small 450 baht hotels will not bother asking you. Thai driving license is the key here.

yep, im also using my thai driving license. so easy

I did mine for 5 years in april. didnt book. walk in. But i watched the 1 hour video online and kept the QR code it gave me. went there at 7.30 they started to take in people who has bookings. So i would say i waited around 2 hours for my turn. When you enter the door tell or show the QR code to the lady sitting on the right (giving queue numbers) that means you watched the video. So they will give you a different queue number (i think white color) to skip watching the video. they will take i think 550 or 505 baht. cannot remember. i waited my turn probably another 30-40min. Did 3 tests about color, reflects, eyes. Took my photo and waited another 20min. All done so no need booking but if not you will wait probably 3-4 hours to do all. went there 7.30 done around 11:45 video you need to watch: https://www.dlt.go.th/en/renew-license/ https://www.dlt-elearning.com/forignerhome you can find it in here but you need to register

it must be the one your work place working with. its about the area. so you cannot go just the one you want

dont forget passport hahaha

yes you can just take the termination letter and the work permit with you to the labor office. it will take 15 min to do all.

first of all you need a termination letter from your employer. then go to the immigration and tell them you are done with your work. they will ask you your termination letter. bare in mind that the date on your termination letter is your last day in thailand. because it also cancel your visa.. probably non-b.. immigration will tell you that you have 24 hours to leave thailand right after you tell them and show them the termination letter. im not sure you can ask them 7 days for 2000 baht or not. you have 2 options here.. 1) you talk with your new job and prepare all the documents for your visa. if they can do that you dont need to leave the country.. you can do everything in the same day. 2) if the new job cannot provide you with the documents you need to leave the country when you cancel your work. i strongly advice you that to prepare your tax documents for your next work permit.. thats the first thing they will ask you when you want to expend your visa when you get the new work

Thanks

with all respect to you and your comment.. i was wondering if you would help differently if its me or my friend? i just cannot understand why people keep doing this.. its a friend or not. the question is there... does it matter?!

i do believe it is. think like going to a business dinner. some people come here for attend some business meeting plus the sea and the nature. its all about what you are selling.. or talking in the meeting. its not like.. but i agree with you

khon kaen.. chang wattana.. nakhon sawan.. sri racha... pattaya... nan... loei... mukdahan... im sorry cannot remember the rest 50 i wonder which clawn IO you are talking about accepts black ink if you work in some business you would also know that black is not accepted on many documents when you sign them only in some situations tho. so.. your opinion doesnt make its true just because you think so or you were lucky 1 or 2 times. and i dont think i attended a rogue IO jsut because they are doing their job

Thank you for the info

Well 18 years in thailand always been told no black and no copy by IO

he is not working. its like he comes and do some work for his company based in his own country and go back to his country. to be honest i dont know what he is doing.

Hi I have a friend from Azerbaijan. He is doing some kind of work between there and thailand. His office pays all the expenses. The problem is everytime he enters thailand with a tourist visa. Before it was not a problem for him but he told me now its becoming a problem. He wants to get elite visa or any other similar visa which will help him for entering thailand without any problem. He wants to know how to get and the needed documents or any info about elit visa or any other visa. Obviously Ed visa is not an option plus its not the right visa type. Thanks

correct

to OP's question: yes, it must be blue ink. the reason for this is black will make it look like its not original but copy. red is used for corrections or attention by the IO.

probably few years ago i was asking the same question in this forum for one of my friends. he was on non-o retirement & extension. i asked the question if he can work and get a work permit. because my knowledge at that time was no. then (i cannot remember 100%) the answers were yes he can with some he cannot. and i was so surprised. actually i do remember Ubon said every people can work with any kind of 'O' type immigrant visa. so to make things clear again.. this means non-o retirement visa owners can work but cannot have work permit? if the answer is no they cannot even work then something changed? because im 100% sure the answer was yes few years ago when i posted. thanks

well this post answers the OP's question. item 11 is clear. i think scam is financial crime?

RIP....
