Is 60,000 baht too much for a Thai visa agent?
Is 60,000 baht too much to get an agent to sort Thai visa out
Answer summary
The general consensus in the comments is that 60,000 baht is considered too high for hiring an agent to handle a Thai visa application. Many users reported significantly lower fees for similar services, ranging from 16,000 to 40,000 baht depending on individual circumstances. The price varies based on multiple factors such as whether you need a Non-O visa, a retirement visa, or assistance with opening a Thai bank account. Despite some claims that the price could be 'normal' in certain situations (e.g., not having a bank account), most agree that you should be able to do it yourself at a much lower cost.

Hello, try contacting the Thai Visa Centre in Bangkok; it only costs me 18,000 baht.
I've been with them for 10 years.
You don't even have to go there in person; just send everything by mail.
I have a retirement visa, and you don't even need to hold the 800,000 baht.

considering you can do yourself for 2000, yea. But be prepared to waste a day at immi. prepare all docs photos photocopies first, they have 2 shops there that do both cheaply too, I think 2nd floor at the back. Make an appointment online but fill up quickly, best to arrive just after the initial rush maybe 8.30 its just a crush before that, probably makes little difference to how long you wait.

Marty ******
About the going rate, for 15 month stay ,
THAI ******************************
@Marty *****
For the initial 15-month retirement setup, our fee is typically around 38,000–40,000 THB.Costs can increase significantly if you arrive in Thailand on a Tourist Visa or visa-exempt entry and do not already have a Thai bank account (around 60,000 THB for everything).
The original poster hasn't provided enough details, but based on similar cases, we suspect they may be seeking a bank account, an initial Non-O visa, and a one-year extension, all after arrival while on a TR/Exempt Entry.
Our general recommendation is to apply for the Non-O visa before coming to Thailand. Once here, you can then attempt to open a bank account and engage an agency to assist only with the annual extension, or with both the bank account and extension if needed.
Taking this approach usually keeps costs much lower.
Colin **********

it is not difficult to find if that quote is too much or at average or cheaper. You just ask all agents near your location. Find it on google first and contact them and explain what you want. And they will offer or give you a quote, and conditions. then, you will know what price is reasonable. Agent fee is very different on your location and your wants and needs.

THAI ******************************
TrustworthyHummingbird8294 Our fee is 60,000 THB for those 50 and older currently in Thailand on a tourist visa or visa-exempt entry.
This package includes:
▪ Bank account opening
▪ 3-month Non-O visa
▪ 1-year extension based on retirement
If you only need a specific service rather than the full package, feel free to contact our team for individual pricing or any questions.
For the 3-month Non-O visa plus the 1-year extension, our fee is approximately 40,000 THB. In this case, you would already need to have a Thai bank account in place.
The cost increases significantly if we need to coordinate both the Non-O visa and the Thai bank account opening at the same time while you are still on a visa-exempt entry or a tourist visa.

it depends on your situation and conditions. and where you want to get a visa and extension. some places are expensive because the immigration is hard hit etc..

For retirement related services our rates are the same either way.CN ****
Greg Alexander good question
Greg ***********
since you cannot open a bank account on a touristic entry, it is important we know on which visa you entered or if you entered visa exempt. If you want to do the "change of visa type" from a touristic entry to the initial 90-days Non-O retirememnt visa, and from there to the 1-year extension of the stay permit, you would need a Thai bank account. This kind of "full package" can only be done by a handful of agents and costs between 60,000 and 90,000 THB. If you entered on a 90-days Non-O retirement visa, the agent can help with the bank account opening for 5000 Baht, and the rest of the service - the application to the extension, would cost something between 7,500 and 12,500 Baht

Franck Cartoon yes i know Thai Visa Centre well. Grace has helped 2 of my friends before. Make this suggestion to the OP please.
Franck *********
Phil Beer Hello, try contacting the Thai Visa Center in Bangkok; it only costs me 18,000 baht.
I've been with them for 10 years.
You don't even have to go there in person; just send everything by mail.
I have a retirement visa, and you don't even need to hold the 800,000 baht.

Good morning to You. Much of this here is for me confusing. I have never used any agent for my visas. 65k stunds like a robbety, but maybee it is because I am married having the correct dokument for married issued at the governements office in Huia Koth, Uthaitani. I have never had any difficulties with Thai Emigration neither at Suvanabumbi or in Uthaitani. As I said always been treated good by Emigration officers.Sean *******

Leatrice Mc-Gerald if you have the funds in your Thai bank account there’s no reason not to do it yourself
Ryan *******
Leatrice Mc-Gerald you might as well. The hard part is getting all the documents. Which you need to do either way. The agency isn’t going to pull your bank records or employment records…… the hardest part for me was remembering passwords and getting access while being abroad.

You need to understand the point before you'll know why the price is high.
The price for 60,000 THB if no bank account no have Non immigrants O visa Nothing at all.
For you just renew 1 year visa the cost only 15,000-18,000 THB
