Hello 👋

It would be so grateful for me if someone can answer these questions please 🙏🏻🥹

(1) I’m a Myanmar citizen.

(2) I have two companies which is Myanmar and Thai. I’m the director of both companies. My work is I just need to make decisions. I don’t need to work physically in both companies.

(3) So, what kind of requirements as a director do I need to apply DTV visa? Or Should I just apply as a freelancer because my career stands as a gemologist? Which one is easier?

Thank you for your help 🙏🏻

TLDR : Answer Summary
A Myanmar citizen who is a director of both Myanmar and Thai companies is seeking guidance on whether to apply for a DTV visa or a work visa as a freelancer due to their career as a gemologist. Comments suggest that a NON-B multiple visa might be more appropriate given the business involvement in Thailand, while considering where they intend to spend most of their time.

to apply Non-B multiple, I need work permit. To have work permit my Thai company have to have 4 Thais workers. But currently my company is just startup and do not have that 4 Thai workers yet. That’s why par ama yal. 🥹

ဟုတ်အစ်မ Non-B တခါလျှောက်ဖူးတာ ၃ လပဲပေးလို့။

အဲဒါလေးရတယ်ဆို အဲဒါပဲလျှောက်ချင်တာ ညီမတချိန်လုံးခရီးပတ်ထွက်နေလို့ပါ။ အများဆုံးတခါနေရင် တစ်လထပ်ပိုမနေဘူးရယ်။

Anonymous participant apply with your Myanmar company if it meets the criteria.

Is freelancer Gemologist remote?

And I wouldn’t indicate that you plan on “working “ at your Thai business.

Long term, if you want to stay in Thailand, and your Thai business is big enough, would be best to get a work permit through you Thai business, completely different visa.

Myanmar government is not allowed to work outside of the country or if I have business visa, they will probably put me in trouble when I sometimes go back to Myanmar.

I think if you are a director the officer will tell you that why don’t you apply for business visa ? It’s just my thought
