Yes. If the employer doesn't need a degree you don't need one.

For jobs other than teaching, there is a minimum-salary requirement - but no degree requirement.  The rest is just a matter of the company providing the necessary documentation for your initial-visa, work-permit, and then your extension.
 

Yes. As long as you qualify for the Salary Level and get the necessary support documents from the Company hiring you.

I worked in Thailand a number of times and the Company I worked for employed a good number of foreign Specialists.

Many worked in Jobs one typically does not need a degree, just specialist formal Training and Work experience.

From what I've been told, even if you're teaching golf, you still need a Bachelors Degree to get that visa.

A good example to not believe everything one is beeing told.

Before moving to Laos, 7 years ago, I worked in TH for 28 years, Although I have an MBA, i NEVER had to submit a copy...as the employer did not request it.

A off topic inflammatory post meant to derail the topic has been removed. A repeat of it will result in a formal warning.

Degrees are way over rated

This gives me a bit of hope. Thanks. (Although I do have a bachelor's degree, of course.)

It makes my wall look pretty and also makes good toilet paper if you run out, although probably a bit rough on your bum

I guess that's a matter for the LOS immigration folks to decide. :)
