What was the basis for that extension?

I changed from "retirement" to "employment".

I did it twice, though in one case it was nearly ended. In the other, it was only about 3 months old.

Legally speaking, you are correct. You do not need a degree in Chemistry, or even another Science, to teach Chemistry. But keep this in in mind:  The number of Thai high school students studying Chemistry in English is just a tiny percentage of the total. If no qualified foreign teacher can be found, the students can easily be integrated into the regular Thai program where they are taught by the regular Thai Chemistry teachers. It is rare to find a completely unqualified foreigner assigned to the task. This is a reason why English and Mini English Programs are much more preponderant at the elementary level than at the high school level.

My comments do not apply to International schools. They bring qualified teachers from abroad, 

Good morning,

- to obtain a Work Permit and 1 yr. Non-Immigrant "B" visa, you need a four year Bachelor's Degree. Any discipline is acceptable.

-bring the original copy of your degree and transcripts. For the latter, that means a copy signed by an authorized officer of the university, with an embossed seal, preferably in a sealed envelope. You are British; if you do not have the originals in your possession already, the process to obtain them can be long, complex and expensive.

- a TEFL/CELTA?PGSCE is not required to teach here, though having any of these can only enhance your employability.

-the Teacher's Licence requirements are all taken care of by the school, and indeed it can not be obtained unless you are already working at a school.

Giving your location (at least the region) may elicit replies from those with local knowledge. If you mean "Which banks have the most ATM's?", the banks are required to install ATM's in proportion to the number of ATM cards they give out. This stops banks from handing out cards while relying on their competitors for the ATM's.  So, on a national basis, all of the big five should be more or less equal.

I know nothing about airline service to Mae Sot, so a couple of guesses:

  - are they the only one that flies there ?

  - do they own the airport there ?

Actually, my two guesses are two different ways of saying the same thing:  monopoly

You probably won't be using it in every country in the world. It might be beneficial to state the country(ies) where you will be using it.

That Thais get all excited when someone is honest says alot about the average character of the country. 

I couldn't have said it better myself.

I have sent you a Private Mail.  Sign in to see it.

I changed jobs three times. I was never asked to provide such a letter.

Your previous history is irrelevant. Your Extension of Stay ended when you left your job.

They (K-bank) renewed my ATM card 7 months ago. There have been recent reports on here that they have recently become very difficult to deal with. That said, this is the first time i have seen "No ATM card" to someone who already has an account there. 

"Lead them through Brexit indeed !" Let's try "Show them the door". Given that Jean-Claude Juncker did not kick Britain out the door the door on March 30, 2019 as he and the European Commission should have done, my vote is for whoever succeeds Juncker. But, he or she has only my conditional support, and only until November 1, 2019

With full co-operation from both schools, you can make the change at Chaeng Wattana. I once did it, and had everything done in half a day. Your old school needs to hold your Work Permit open until the new school has all the required paperwork submitted. Once the new school has applied for your Work Permit, they will be given a form showing that the application has been received. (W.P. 3, I believe.) You can then cancel your old W.P. Save the receipt which you are given for it (Form Taw Daw 10).

The new rules started March 1, 2019, so it is too early to say.

What sort of Visa, or Extension of Stay, are you on now ? Are your current and new employer located in the same province ?

If Surin and Roi-et offer anything to go by, it will be both. Watch for recruitment posters around town. In Roi-et, they were up beginning about 8 months before the Robinson's opened. I remember thinking "Why are they recruiting so early for low level positions ? They will just have to do it again, a month or two before the actual opening."
