WhamBam Posted September 21, 2015 Share Posted September 21, 2015 1) Am I right in thinking that a work permit is for a specific job and a specific place of work? 2) What are the (if any) punishments expected for those working 'on the side' not according to their work permits if they are found out? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elviajero Posted September 21, 2015 Share Posted September 21, 2015 (edited) Yes. You can have more than one job or place of work on the WP, but only with the agreement of all concerned. Alien Working Act. Section 51.An alien who engages in work without having the permit shall be liable to imprisonment for a term of not exceeding five years or to a fine from two thousand Baht to one hundred thousand Baht or to both.In the case where the accused under paragraph one wilfully departs the Kingdom within the period specified by the inquiry official, but not more than thirty days, the inquiry official may settle the case and causes that alien to depart the Kingdom.
