I am a U.S. citizen living in Taiwan. I'm 49 years old. Looking to move to Thailand in July. Have read info about getting a Thai work permit on the embassy website. Just looking for confirmation on whether I understand the process. I can either 1. try to get a work contract before I go to Thailand from a school (use an employment agency to help me??) and get my non-immigration B visa from the Thai embassy in Taipei, Taiwan, then go to Thailand and start the process for the proper work visa, OR 2. Got to Thailand first, obtain a work contract from a school, then I would have to leave Thailand and go to a Thai embassy in a neighboring country to get the non-immigration B visa, then go back to Thailand to start the work permit process. Am I even close with my current understanding of the process?? Taiwan is definitely easier. :-) Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.
