UPDATED 12 February 2020

I needed to get the Work Permit Medical Certificate so I could apply for my work permit. Here’s the latest information about getting the Work Permit Medical Certificate in Chiang Mai.

Getting the Chiang Mai Work Permit Medical Certificate has just gotten a lot easier. I just went down to the new Medical Centre at the RAM Hospital on the west side of the moat, behind the Starbucks.

In 2020, walked in at 8:50am, drove out at 9:20am, then popped back to pick up the certificate at 12pm. 

In 2017, walked in about 12pm, walked out 15 minutes later (see below).

Registration

Firstly you take your license or passport, and get registered at the registration desk. After that you, have a quick height, weight and blood pressure check, then go and give blood and within a couple of minutes you’re seen by Dr who actually gives you some prodding, asks some questions and listens your heart beating and chest function and then you walk out.

There are these beautiful waiting areas but never really even sat for a minute.

Cashier

Of course before you leave you have to pay your 373 baht fee, then pop back at your leisure after two hours and pick up the medical certificate and report.

I used to think the RAM Hospital was expensive, but it’s only a few baht more than my normal hospital (220 baht, but normally at least 90 minutes or 2 trips across town), and less than many others. I suggest going here to get your yearly work permit medical certificate.
