Work Permit On Ed Visa

[Flexsharp]

Hello

I would like to apologize in advance if this has been asked before. I would like to know whether its possible to obtain a work permit on an Education visa.

I really don't have proof for this but I think at some point in the past there was at least some kind of "part-time" job allowed to do just with the ED no work permits. Maybe what qualified as 0% tax income.

Pretty sure you can't. Thai law states that any kind of work, paid or unpaid requires a work permit and you would need to have the appropriate visa. Ed is purely for studying. It may be possible to convert the visa type but I'm not expert on that.

Up to a year ago, any Ed visa could obtain a work permit so some are still "grandfathered" in.

For new applicants, it’s not possible with only one exception. A university student that has been given permission to work from the school(in the case of a intern needing work experience).
