VISA - TEFL Teachers

Visa Requirement details for English Teachers who wants to Teach English in Thailand

Non-Immigrant B Visa Sponsorship & Assistance

All costs incurred when acquiring the non-immigrant B Visa will be borne by the teachers.

Most teachers will be able to obtain their non-immigrant B Visa at a Thai consulate or embassy in their home country prior to their departure. If you fail to get your non immigrant B visa, an alternative option would be to get a 60 days tourist visa from the Thai embassy in your country.

We aim at sending the entire set of relevant visa papers to the respective Thai Embassy / Consulate for processing 1 month prior to the landing date of the ESL teachers. Therefore, those who have travel plans elsewhere before landing in Thailand may not get the non immigrant B visa from the third country with the papers sent for the visa (If you are traveling in Asia before landing in Thailand). The alternative is to enter Thailand with a 60-day tourist visa (30 days Visa on arrival is not recommended) and eventually get it transformed in Thailand. Otherwise, another option would be to appear for a visa-run. The charges involved would approximately be 5000 – 6000 baht.

Work Permit

Schools will pay for the processing fees incurred in obtaining the work permit for teachers signing a longer contract. Teachers are responsible for the cost of and for the supplying of any required copies of educational documents, passport pages, health certificate, and pictures. The application for work permits cannot be made until a non-immigrant B Visa is secured. Applications will begin roughly 2 weeks after teaching begins.

*In the case of changing school; if the teacher has already received the work permit but prefers to change to a new school (different province), the cost of obtaining the work permit for the new school will be the teacher’s responsibility.*
