stiggy Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 Time to renew my workpermit, so running around as always. Picture cant smile cant even show teeth , must wear shirt and tie. Medical now must be signed by Dr original sent with application Then the tests : syphlis test (blood) : Urine sample for drugs test, was told its for Amphetimine and other type of drugs in that class. Seems they are getting more and more on top of things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZKL142 Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 did they actually test you? everyone I know, myself included, just had the doctor go "You feel OK?" and once you say yes, they sign the paper and collect payment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bluebell Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 Yup had to have test, Labor Department now asks for actual results of test with renewal application. The past years have been pay money get cert and go but not anymore. Same here, renewed last month and had to include the actual results of blood and urine tests in the renewal application. I know several people who renewed recently and all had to provide this. (Surat Thani Labour Dept) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leo12345 Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 Blood test has been a requirement now for over 1.5 yrs. As for the urine, I did not need to give a sample last time , however the other doctor checks have not changed much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigC Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 luckily the oplympic games althletes is for ameteurs only. if they needed a work permit if passsing through Thailand then there would be no one to go to London. SAy ing that will London still be there in 2012 or does the year 2012 mean that we all blow ourselves up. BOOM i am gone .... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stiggy Posted August 10, 2011 Author Share Posted August 10, 2011 Semper.. Im surprised that a work permit requirement is actually being enforced thats all, I also feel its a step in the right direction. Now all they need to do is find a test to find w332ers that live in Thailand, and it would a better place to live in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
