Just registered my new company. Planning for work permit. Wondering about the pros and cons of a non O vs. non B. I'm not married to a Thai, but I have a son with a Thai mother. I'm the legal father and paperwork to show it. I also have plenty of money in the bank, so that's not an issue for me. Just wondering which visa would be the best to attach my WP to. TIA.
TLDR : Answer Summary
The individual has registered a new company in Thailand and is exploring options for work permits, specifically comparing Non-O and Non-B visas. Key considerations include having a Thai child, as the Non-O visa may offer advantages related to family status, while the Non-B visa pertains to business operations. Comments suggest both visas allow for initial 90-day stays extendable on application, with minimal differences in paperwork. However, the choice may depend on the age of the son and his living arrangements with the applicant.
