01:29The DFA and DMW also reminded the public to be careful against suspicious job offers on social media.
01:38Don't just believe job offers in Thailand that don't have a contract or working visa.
01:47That job is prohibited in Thailand if you don't have a work visa.
01:50Don't leave without a work visa. You need to apply to the Licensed Recruiting Agency, the DMW.

02:03to our neighboring countries in the ASEAN region.
02:06It is clear that for tourism, the ASEAN member states should issue visa-free visas and not for work.
02:14According to the DFA, illegal recruitment is also an indication of the ongoing process of papers,
02:20pure online transactions, and the use of backdoor exits to leave the country.
