OLDAUSSIE Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 I have been offered a volunteer position with an Australian Charity in Thailand. Which Visa should I get? Do I also need a work permit? Thank you for any help you can give. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lopburi3 Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 Non immigrant O and yes you will need a work permit for anything but current emergency work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dylanist Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 You will need a Non-immigrant O and you do need a work permit. Both are a bit time consuming to get papers in order but once completed, easy to continue if your charity follows what ever rules are being asked to be followed on the given day.

OLDAUSSIE Posted October 21, 2011 Author Share Posted October 21, 2011 Thank you for your responce. What would be the best country to get a Non Immigranant O visa, or can I get one in Thailand? What is the cost of a 1 year Non O visa multi entry? Where do I get the work permit and also the cost? Thanks for all of your help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mario2008 Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 IN brisbane Australia you owuld probably get a mutiple non-O, in Asia you will only get a single non-O. A single is good enough, only when you plan regular traveling out of Thailand might a mutiple non-O have more advantages. The cost is 2,000 baht for a single and 5,000 baht for a multiple in local currency. They use their own exchange rates. You will need paperwork from the charity confirming you will be working for them and asking for a visa for you. A work permit must be obtained from a Thai labour office and costs 3,100 baht per year. You obtain it with the help of your employer. Both of you need to submit paperwork. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
