What is the ideal visa for a remote working professional relocating to Thailand?
Hello members,
I am a remote working professional from India, planning to relocate to 🇹🇭 along with my partner who has work permit from their office.
Will really appreciate if anyone can suggest which visa should be ideal for me.
Thanks.
