If i know correct a thai company only can hire a foreigner IF he has something special like thai cannot or not at best level. Which means like hiring a foreigner to teach english.
Your best shot would be a manager position if he has a hotel or likewise. For car wash obviously no need a farang to hire. Security, guard.. no way as you probably know it already even before creating this post.
Also your friend must holding a document from the government or labor office giving him a permission to hire a foreigner. This is not easy to obtain for a thai company if its not working international or a language school...
If your friend is reqlly close to you tell him to show you as a partner. That will work for sure. I know someone did that.
Again another thing is even your friend has the dpcument saying he can hire farangs, and hires you... you need to prove that your elite in this field so he needs you. For example if he hires you as a cook labor office will ask you to prove it, if your degree is engineering.. they will reject your work permit. You must be holding a related degree. I think you get the point what im trying to say.
So actually you have 2 options:
Tech or find a company you can hire you in your skill or training or degree.

Thank you. May I know if I am in Thailand with my non-o marriage visa and find a job in Thailand. Can I apply work permit and all the document finished in Thailand? Or Do I need to come back to my country/ Thai embassy in my country to finish the document?
If you have non-o you can find a job, can get a work permit and you can extend your visa one of the method, thai wife or work.
No need to leave the country all can be done in thailand

Can someone please advise me about the Mor Prom app?
when I download the app, it’s in Thai/ English, and asks for an ID
well since I don’t have a Thai ID, I used my passport number, that didn’t work.
then I tried my vaccination number and that didn’t work either!
Any idea what I am doing wrong? Thanks
Hi,
You need to click on register then put the number starting with 60000 thats your number. Then create a password

UPDATE 1:
Yes, they indeed replied real quick and told me only the hospital can use or change the vaccine records. And they are only responsible to put that data into the app.
So, yes.. a trip to hospital. This is something i dont think thai people can solve on the phone. But just will call the hospital and try.
Will update.

Send an email to [email protected] with an explanation of the problem and attach the vaccination certificate from the hospital. They might be able to correct your data, especially if it hasn't been updated due to a technical issue. Worth a shot before venturing to the hospital again - they did help me with a minor issue with my data, but I'm not sure if they can add a vaccination record that is missing altogether.
Sent an email, waiting for reply. I will update. Thnx

hi guys,
well i had my 3rd shot 2 weeks ago. Other 2 shots were updated in my MorProm app no problem. but my 3rd shot not updated yet. All my friends at the work (farang) updated already. This 3rd shot was not at the same place where we got other 2 shots. Obviously the hospital made a mistake and didnt gave my info to where it should be.
I tried to contact to hospital and of course they have no clue what im asking or trying to tell.. i just cannot understand why there is no english speaker (at least basic level) in a hospital.. anyway They keep giving me some different numbers and blah blah same story. So most likely a visit to the hospital soon.
but i was wondering if there is any other way to let the MorProm know that i already got the 3rd shot and i already have the paper and photo from the hospital. I tried to use the app where you can send the info to the app to correct the mistake but of course its not working. so, is there any other way to update this app rather then a visit to hospital?
thanks

are you a thai citizen as asked by DrJack or you are feeling like a thai citizen? 2 very different things.
If you are not a thai citizen, are you working? If you are working and if you have government insurance provided from your work i believe you can come to thailand but 5 days quarantine (no need to stay all 5 days at your hotel, just need to be there 1st and 5th day). if you dont have that insurance you have to get a covid insurance equal to $50.000. Dont forget to take your work permit with you too. a covid test at a hospital before 74 hrs arrival is advised for both countries. Nothing to lose to have it just to be safe just in case if they ask.
If you are a thai citizen, then no anything extra but i believe again 5 days quarantine (no need to stay all 5 days at your hotel, just need to be there 1st and 5th day).

This morning one of my friends told me that because of covid now we can change our non-o (wife) to non-b (work) at CW immigration.
i was wondering if this is true or not. If its true, wife should come to the immigration or not.
thanks

Hi,
One of my friends has non-o visa with work permit working at a university in bangkok. Our wives working at the same place. He extended his visa for 1 year using having a wife method. Now he wants to extend using work method. He checked the list that @ubonjoe (thank you) provided in my other post and told me that his friends had to get a criminal check from the local police office. They never left the kingdom so it took their 10 min to get the report. Also he told me that immigration asked some teachers' degrees to approvment or something like that from the minister of affairs. Also approvmebt from their embassy ( that the university is real, or something like that) But all these things are not listed in the list provided and also this list is from thai government website. So he confused as i am. He is working there for 4 5 years now.
At this point the for sure things he knows:
- copy of his degrees (in his own country language, officially translation to english using a translator from his embassy) no embassy stamp but a stamp shows its officially translated.
- copy of transcript
- copy of his passport, first page and extension, visa
- no need wife to go with him ( because extension reason is work)
- copy of work permit
- documents from his university
- last year tax papers
Could someone add what else needed, such as criminal report or else needed or not... that minister of affair thing is needed or not or what ever else needed not mentioning in that list.
Thanks a lot

Maybe you can also bring any driving license with you... Work permit... anything you can think of related to your name...

thanks

Also, my wife has lost her copy of the Marriage Certificate. Do we need to get a new one or is mine enough?

OP mentioned its a chain of hotels. lived 10 yrs in KK the only hotel that big i know in khon kaen is Sofitel, old pullman. I dont know any chain of hotels in KK. And im pretty sure they know how to do tm30 or report. if thats your hotel leave and stay in other hotel. There are many better hotels than that one. if not, i would move to another hotel again. obviously it might create future problems.

Havent for a few months now but I used to drive up to Nakhon Ratchasima atleast once a month (Wife's girlfriend parents live there)..... always got stopped, never had a request for passport.
where in Isaan do they ask you ?
well, normally im in khon kaen area. but i travelled isan lot for 10 years now. In bangkok last 6 years now. time to time still going to khon kaen area to check my empty house and other isan cities. Im pretty sure they will stop me for this or that reason as you mentiones. Tbh sometimes (especially like 10-12 years ago) they jsut smile ask me where i am from and let me go. But later they started to ask driver license they check it and then they ask my passport. they look at the first page and check other pages with empty eyes. and in seconds give me back all. there are times not asked passport but i would say 80% they asked my passport. I have no problem showing them. not bothers me at all.

To work with your Non-o marriage visa,
-get a multi entry non-o marriage visa from thai embassy (i think its 5000 baht) get multi so you will have time to arrange things.
-you need to extend it 1 year in thailand at the immigration using 2 ways: min income 40K baht (thai work salary or from your country) or 400.000 in the bank. the rules are different. so check them
second after extension with your non-o marriage your work will provide you documents and you can get your work permit. so you can work with your visa
thats how im doing in thailand. non-o marriage extension based on my income from my thai company.
if you dont have or cannot do any way of extensions... you can contact with an agency. It will cost you from 25K to 30K baht. and they will do the magic.

well technically and officially, your thai friend will be responsible from you and your acts. as the word says 'guarantor' your friend confirms that you are ok to get this visa, he knows you and put himself into the line for you. If you do something and disappear they will find him and try to get the info about you from him. thats all

it is true. Whenever they stopped me in Isaan area the first ask my driver license and then passport. They only look where i am from thats all.

They only look where i am from thats all. they look pages too but with empty eyes. They dont know that visa details.

What surprises me is that from what I have heard it is not that difficult to submit the form since it can even be done online and it's free. So I don't fully understand why hosts don't just do it.. Its not like it's difficult to do. Maybe they just want to earn some extra money from confused tourists
if they do that and report you, they must pay tax. thats what they dont want. I have a friend renting her home to farangs and thats how i know. And asking money from you is also wrong and illegal because it is free. The only reason why they ask money from you can be because they know IO will charge them 2000 baht because they didnt do TM30 in time but late.
if i were you i would find a new place and move and do all tm30. It sounds like your landlord is useless and the only thing he wants is money and not care you.

im sure you will get a better answer from someone knows better, but i dont think you can use your work non-b for marriage non-b. Because your visa type is for working not marriage. But also im not sure i heard that you can change or get non-o marriage in thailand without leaving. It is better your future wife contact and ask clearly to your nearest IO or her house area IO is better because you need to go to that IO for extension.
Im sure that you can extend your non-b marriage using both work or wife.
congrats btw and wishing you a happy married life

I dont think there are police check points on the way. If there are they will only want to see your thai or international driving license. They MIGHT ask your passports if you dont have license. But probably they have no idea about visa and that details. Also they probably only want to see where you are from. just act natural and friendly, thats all.
My Thai friend wants to hire me - but would it be possible for him to get me a non-b visa + work permit?
in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits

About this you can apply international companies such as companies in sri racha, chonburi area. Have many transportation and trading companies there. But the thing is they already habe someone in that position from the company from their country. So its not easy for you just walk in and give your cv and wait for a chance...
Or you can apply for thai international company but its also not that easy. You csn find a company doing business with usa or other. And try your luck.
Tbh your chances are really not good to find a job in thailand. Many companies alreqdy have their men from their HQ already.
You can also try a position as HR. I know 1 2 company their hr are farangs because they are oroginally chinese companies.
