Price for business visa? I have been quoted crazy high prices
Answer summary
The cost of obtaining a business (Non-B) visa in Thailand can vary significantly based on paperwork and the agency involved. Some reports suggest agents may charge as low as 20,000 baht, while others mention costs escalating to 90,000 baht without proper documentation. A Non-B visa is often linked to obtaining a work permit, which complicates the application process, requiring documentation from either an employer or legal representatives. At the immigration office, the standard fee for a 90-day Non-B visa is about 2,000 baht, and an extension for one year costs approximately 1,900 baht.

Business Visas - B Visas do not come alone. There needs to be a Work Permit that is issued by the Ministry of Labor. The B Visa and WP are intertwined and must be processed in a prescribed sequence. The initial B Visa 90 days may have to come from a Thai Embassy/Consulate in a nearby country. A one year Extension of Stay based on the B-Visa is processed by Thai Immigration.

If you don't have paperwork ,yes , you will get crazy prices going upto 90K. However , even with paerwork diff agencies will quote differently. Going by urself or by the help of yr employer is the cheapest.

As a rule people who need Non-B visas either are going to work for a company that supplies the documentation OR are opening their own company and their accountant or lawyer supplies the documentation.

At the immigration office a 90 day Non-B visa costs 2000baht and a year extension costs 1900baht.

We have a policy on the group where you can't ask or recommend agents inside the country.
