My potential employer has asked me to do a Covid test to submit to the Department of Education as part of my application for a Work Permit. 

Human Resources didn't say which test is needed and so can someone please say what type of test I need and where I may get it done for a reasonable fee in Bangkok.  I want to avoid the fancy hospitals with their inflated charges?  Thanks

Ask DOE then Thai Clinic.

Ask HR what they DO need, it isn't a general requirement.

Interesting… I haven’t seen anything myself on the MoE (Ministry of Labour) nor sub-set, DoE (Department of Employment) website, forms or even in print, that explicitly states a C19 test is now a required element as a part of a WP1 (new, not renewal) application filing.  

 

Im not saying that it isn’t or won’t be (in the future) but I can’t find anything online from an official source that says a C19 test is now required or states a future date when it will come into force.

 

Has anyone come across an official notice or similar that addresses this issue?
