TLDR : Answer Summary
Currently, individuals looking to enter Thailand can consider options such as obtaining a business visa or securing job sponsorship. To enter with a business visa, it's necessary to coordinate with the local consulate to get a certificate of entry, fit-to-fly documentation, valid COVID-19 insurance, and meet quarantine requirements. Alternatively, applying for work positions can also facilitate entry, with some suggesting marrying a Thai national as a potential pathway as well.

With a business visa you can enter Thailand. You’d have to negotiate with your local consulate and arrange certificate of entry, fit to fly certificate, valid Covid insurance and mandatory quarantine.

sorry don’t know the answer to that. Perhaps agents exist to help but I don’t know of any.

oh yes I know that would be the case for a sponsored visa for a business visa? Isn’t that dependent on my own work and income, who I then could speak to a rebel and agent or consultant on what I would need to provide for an application?

sorry no. Usually you’d get a job inside Thailand and the company would provide the necessary paperwork to get a visa. It’s usually not done via an agency or consultant.
