education visa at university can i work

Featured Replies

Here is a question I have heard a few answers to and just wondered what people think.

If I am studying to be an engineer and have a Education visa to do this can i work as an engineer for a company when i am not in class?

Will immigration consider this getting more experience even if I am making money?

No I am not taking a course just wondering.

No visa allows you to work only work permit does.

It does not matter if paid or not.

Ask the company if they can arrange a work permit for you but I reckon you will need to get a non-immigrant B visa first.

Immigrations do not handle work permits, labour office does.

Technically, someone working, with a work permit and visa can study; however, a student with an education visa can not work.

Even student internships done by international students in Thailand is frowned up by the Ministry of Labor. Although, the Ministry of Labor often ignore this because the Thailand Ministry of Education often dictate internships be included in undergraduate degree programs. It's also a free source of labor for Thai businesses since interns in Thailand don't normally get paid.
