ORIGINAL POSTER

I am applying for a non-immigrant B visa to travel to Thailand and then apply for a work permit. I have a wife and child who will also come to Thailand with me. Which visa should I apply for them through the Thai visa website? I can't see a suitable dependent visa on the site.

They mention difficulty finding a suitable dependent visa on the Thai visa website. Commenters suggest looking into the Non-O (Non-Immigrant O Visa), which is designated for family members or dependents, and also recommend completing the applications sequentially after the primary visa is granted.

, The easiest is completing the application after your visa is approved. You also may be able to use the reference number of your submitted application on the eVisa system.
