I have a work permit for a private language school with an address in Bangkok. If this language school were to send me to some other part of Thailand to teach a corporate client, is my work permit (ie the one with the school's address in Bangkok) valid for the new location? I still have a contract with the school in BKK, receive my monthly salary from them, etc. and the only think that has changed is the "location" where I actually would work.

I was just wondering if I would be working legally or illegally when I teach at the client's premises.

Any advice on the legality of this situation would be much appreciated. Thank you in advance.

Mario2008 is technically right. Your work permit says *where* you are allowed to work, and this means you are not allowed to work anywhere else.

This means that every businessman who sees a client at their office or hotel is in violation of his work permit. In practice, I have never heard of anybody being fined for that; as long as you have a work permit and work in the field - and get paid by the company mentioned in the work permit - you should be fine. Don't quote me on that though.
