BANGKOK (Xinhua): Thailand's Ministry of Labour on Tuesday (July 14) announced that it is offering work permit renewal applications to be submitted online, rather than having migrant workers queuing up in provincial immigration offices nationwide to avoid clustering in the midst of the Covid-19 pandemic.

However, migrant workers must receive health examinations at Thai government hospitals and then submit the results to an immigration office for a visa stamp.
