Coming on 12 Dec - Need Advice, work and visa

[Takiap]

Unless the law has recently changed, you will be given a 30-day visa exempt stamp at the airport on arrival. After 30 days you will then need to leave and then re-enter in order to get another 30 days.

Alternatively, you can apply for a tourist visa in the UK if you intend staying here for a longer period of time.

As far as finding work is concerned, and particularly in a bar, there is virtually no chance of that happening because in order for you to work here, you require a work permit, and I can't imagine there are many, if any bars here that would be willing to employ a foreigner.

Agree with your sentiment....But the visa exempt can extended for another 30 days at immigration here...cost 1900 baht...
To the OP.....Forget it...!!

Just wondered do i need to get Visa's here from the UK first

Yes, it is MUCH easier to get a visa in the UK first than to try and extend one here.

Echo above sentiment, forget about working unless you are a teacher.
