Do I need to let my wife's BOI company handle my NON-O dependent visa application?

Hi there,

I just got married to my French wife, who is here on a work NON-B BOI visa i.e. works for a BOI company.

I want to apply for a NON-O (dependent visa). The company she works for tells me that I cannot apply for it myself and they need to do the procedure themselves as they are BOI, and charge me THB 10K for it.

Is this correct that they need to do the procedure themselves on the BOI portal, hence I cannot take care of it myself?

Does the cost seem right?

Thanks in advance

TLDR : Answer Summary
The user seeks clarification on whether their wife's BOI company must handle the application for a NON-O dependent visa and if a fee of THB 10K is reasonable. Comments suggest that it is advisable to let the company manage the application process, as they will provide necessary documentation and support, and the fee appears to be low.

Anything about visa with BOI is easier, first time better go with an agent, then any visa extension is very easy and takes 1 hour or even less as all documents are pre approved online

Don't try to do by yourself. Pay them, go to the beach and relax, let them do and it will be successful and you don't have a headache with all that paperwork shit.

You're going to need paperwork from the company anyway as they have to support your application

If you don't have to leave the country to do it then let them.
