Hi,

I'm looking to go to Thailand for 3 to 4 months to volunteer at an orphanage in late-December this year. Does anyone know what type of visa I will need (I'm UK national)? Also I will be travelling round Australia and New Zealand for 4 months prior to going to Thailand so will this make it harder to get a visa?

Thanks

You will need a Non Imm Visa and a Work Permit.

The orphanage will have to give you the paperwork for the Work Permit application.

I'm not allowed to post the Thai Immigration department URL where you can find the information. I don't suppose the newspaper will mind if I break up the URL so you can find the information.

Click on one of the 3 links at:....immigration . go . th / nov2004 / en / base . php?page=stay $I think it's the 2nd link with the answer. I hope so.

I wish you a wonderful stay!
