Thailand Extends Work Permit Renewals for Lao Workers Until March 31
Thailand's Labour Ministry has extended the deadline for Lao, Myanmar, and Vietnamese workers to complete work-permit renewal requirements until March 31, 2026. This decision aims to prevent these workers from becoming undocumented and to address labor shortages in the business sector. Employers are urged to renew work permits promptly to avoid legal repercussions.
