To be precise, you won't change your non-Immigrant "B" visa to a work permit, your employer will apply for a work permit for you after you have arrived in Thailand on a non-Immigrant "B" visa. You will need both if you want to work in Thailand legally.

When you say "work with my girlfriend in a coffee shop", do you mean waiting tables? Waiter/waitress is a restricted occupation and you won't get a work permit for that. On the other hand, if you will own and operate the coffee shop (solely or as a partner), that's different.

If you go the "business operator" route, you will need to establish a Thai limited company. Sole proprietorships cannot apply for work permits. There are a myriad of rules around business capitalisation (minimum THB 2,000,000 for each work permit), Thai ownership and control (a very hot topic in Thailand these days) and the work permit application process can be complex.

You should obtain as much documentation of your education that you can. If you only graduated from high school, then get something official from your government that proves that. If it's not in English or Thai, then you will need to have it translated into Thai before you submit the application. If you submit your application with no evidence of any education, I think your chances of success will be low ("If the job doesn't require any education, why isn't a Thai doing it?").

I don't mean to be discouraging, but I get the feeling you've been led to believe that obtaining a work permit in Thailand is just a matter of applying. It's a bit more difficult than that. As in most countries, the Ministry of Labour in Thailand seeks to allow foreign labour when it is of benefit to the country but restrict foreign labour from disadvantaging Thais. At least that's the theory.

From my recollection KamnanT is correct.

I had to show my degree's etc of course but the CV was also important according to my lawyer at the time - It showed the household name MNC's I had been working for to show I had the experience at the level I was to work at in Thailand.

Of course it will all be different if you own the company etc.

Have a feeling this might be a troll - the poor English spelling doesn't fit in with the sentence structure and word choices, it appears to have been written by a native speaker who is pissing round with the spelling.
