jawdoe Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 can you get a work permit when on a education visa or work legally? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mario2008 Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 To my best knowledge no. You wil have to get a non-B visa from abroad to be able to work and study. To work legaly you always need a WP, unless it is an internship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InterestedObserver Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 can you get a work permit when on a education visa or work legally? The answer is maybe! If the Ministry of Labor, Department of Employment (Labor Department) will issue you a work permit you can work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunbelt Asia Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 can you get a work permit when on a education visa or work legally? Several years ago you could. Now it’s no longer possible with one exception, only if your school writes a letter stating that you need to be an intern to complete a course for school credit. www.sunbeltasiagroup.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mario2008 Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 Its possible you can get a WP with an ED visa. It would depend on the Labour Office, but all reports nowaday's are negative. Do you have a WP on an ED visa? If so from which labour office? Would be nice to know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sisaketmike Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 can you get a work permit when on a education visa or work legally? Hi. I've got an American friend who came to Thailand an an ED- visa. The truth is you can't legally work on a Ed- via, cause that's for education. A Non-B is needed, and all the paperwork......sorry but that's the truth. Good luck. You wont get a work permit on an ED to make all legally.

xjessie007 Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 The answer is no, but what kind of job are you going to do? Perhaps you can get by... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karlski Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 Yeah, *could* flip to work permit & Non-Imm B and just keep going to the school as there's no stipulation of visa type as there is with work. Labor & Education ministries have zero built-in capacity to handle your case files simultaneously. Two very different sets of protocols/regulatory mechanisms.
