NJ.2 — Employer application to bring Cambodian workers to Thailand under the MOU

Form NJ.2 (Application Form for bringing foreign worker to work with employer in the Kingdom of Thailand) is the employer's request to the Thai Department of Employment (Ministry of Labour) to bring workers of a given nationality to Thailand under the government-to-government memorandum of understanding (MOU). This version is for Cambodian nationals.

The official file is a 10-page package: NJ.2 itself (Thai and English columns), a power of attorney to the Cambodian recruitment company, a model employment contract in Thai, English and Khmer, a Thai power of attorney for filing, form WP.46 Employment Certification and a work permit application for an individual worker.

• the employer in Thailand — a company or an individual — signs the application; a licensed Thai recruitment agency or an attorney may file it under a power of attorney;
• the workers are recruited in Cambodia through a licensed Cambodian recruitment company named in the power of attorney;
• it is filed with the Department of Employment: the provincial employment office for the place of work, or an area office in Bangkok. Check the exact office, fees and processing time with the office.

• employer: name, type of business, address, telephone and fax;
• the Cambodian recruitment company: name, address, licence number and the date of the power of attorney;
• number of workers by category (labourer, domestic worker, mechanic on a fishing vessel, other) and by sex; age, height and weight requirements;
• place of work, period of employment, wage, working hours, weekly holiday, annual leave and Thai official holidays;
• immigration checkpoint of entry and the province of the post-arrival training centre;
• in WP.46 — the employer's registration and financial details and the reason for not employing Thai nationals.

FoxDocs fills NJ.2, the power of attorney to the Cambodian company, the Thai power of attorney (if an attorney files) and the employer part of WP.46. The model employment contract (pages 3–7) and the work permit application (page 10) are completed per worker once the names are known; they stay blank in this PDF. Signatures, the company seal and the stamp duty on the power of attorney are added by hand.

• the signed pages of this package;
• a copy of the company affidavit (or the employer's ID card for an individual) and the ID of the person who signs;
• other documents the office asks for.

The current list of attachments, fees and processing times depend on the office — check with the Department of Employment.

The form has Thai and English columns with the same items. FoxDocs fills both columns in Latin capital letters; dates in the Thai column use the Buddhist Era. Ask the office in advance whether it accepts Latin script in the Thai column.
