stament Posted September 13, 2019 Share Posted September 13, 2019 Just a quick one, presumably a school can prepare the documents required for this fairly quickly if they need to or do they need to request info from some government department? Just wondering how long it takes them to get the documents ready. Secondly, once the visa has been obtained how long can you expect to take on average to receive your work permit? Thanks in advance.

Templeton Posted September 13, 2019 Share Posted September 13, 2019 It changes all the time. Usually it takes at least a month-month and a half for the non-B if you get all the required paperwork in quickly. work permit might be two weeks after you get back. but again, different areas ask for different things meaning the time frame can change. However, what I have stated above is based on my experience. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubonjoe Posted September 13, 2019 Share Posted September 13, 2019 A letter from ministry of education is one of the required documents for a non-b visa for teaching. You also need a police clearance certificate. Vientianes requirements are here. http://vientiane.thaiembassy.org/upload/pdf/Visa/Non-B teacher.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Presumably they don't need to keep your passport for this month to 6 week period? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
