WORKING WITHOUT A PERMIT

January 28, 2015 Work Permits



If you are in Thailand working without a Permit, then see here. As stated before
on this website, you need to have a valid work permit in Thailand and have your
work permit on you while at work or you could face deportation or a large fine.
The Thai work permit does not allow you to work in Thailand. You will need to
use this visa to obtain a valid work permit. Depending on the type of work you
will be doing different requirements need to be met.




WORKING WITHOUT A PERMIT

This is only the fines and penalties you will get if you are caught without a
valid work permit.

PENALTIES – NO WORK PERMIT

If you are caught by immigration or Thai police working in Thailand without a
valid work permit you will be caught and brought before a court. You can get a
prison sentence of 5 years and then be deported and/or a fine of between
2,000THB and 100,000THB. Those who have been teaching in Thailand illegally have
usually been sentenced to 2years in prison with deportation afterwards.

PENALTIES – HAVE A WORK PERMIT BUT WRONG OCCUPATION

If you have a work permit and you are doing work what is not described in your
work permit then you can also be arrested and find up to 20,000THB. As an
example you might have a work permit as a manager at a restaurant however you
have been caught teaching on week-ends. This will be a fine as you have not
amended your work permit (See: work permit costs) to reflect your new
occupation.

PENALTIES- WORK PERMIT NOT ON YOU

If immigration comes to your place of work and you do not have your work permit
on you then you can be arrested and fined for up to 10,000THB. The most common
instance are those who are teaching in Thailand and the school insists that you
have to leave your work permit at school. This creates problems should you be
stopped.

PENALTIES – NO WORK PERMIT IN COMPANY

If a company is caught with workers who do not have a valid work permit. The
fine can be up to 100,000THB. This would be based on per person. If you have 10
illegal workers then the fine would be 1,000,000THB.

If you are caught without a work permit more likely than not you will be
arrested. You will appear before a judge in 2-3 days depending on where you had
been caught. This as you will be moved to the Thai Immigration Detention Centre
(IDC) in Bangkok for processing. You will appear and be fined and a sentence
handed down. This in the past has been 2 years or simply a heavy fine and
deportation. This might affect your return to Thailand. So also speak to a
lawyer should you be arrested. This to ensure that you are not blacklisted in
Thailand because of the incident.

If you need advice about work permits or if you have been arrested. This or know
of someone who has been arrested. Then ensure that you/they have an attorney
present when you appear before court.
