Which Thai embassies issue Non-B visas without a work permit and what are the current requirements?

Visa for business contact. Valid for three years (Three-Year Non-Immigrant Visa "B"). Foreigners wishing to travel to Thailand for business purposes. And need to travel frequently. A B-to-B visa can be applied for multiple visits to Thailand three years (Three-Year Non-Immigrant Visa "B"). Foreigners who have been granted a visa can travel to Thailand several times within 3 years and stay up to 90 days at a time. They are not allowed to work in Thailand. 1. Place to apply for a visa Foreigners wishing to obtain a Three-Year Non-Immigrant Visa "B" can apply for a visa at the Thai embassy or consulate located in the country where the applicant is applying. Check the residence card only. If no Thai embassy or consulate is located in the country where the applicant for residence permit is domiciled The application can be made at the Thai embassy in charge of the country. The application can not be submitted at the Honorary Consulate of Thailand. They are not allowed to have such kind of visa. If you want to inquire about the place of filing.

And the 3 year Non B is Multi-Entry fwith 90 stays each time for business research, creating contacts, etc but I read that you cannot get a WP with this Visa

Readers should not confuse the B Visa - W/P procedures for Employees of a Thai company versus people who are share owners / directors of their own company - they differ somewhat. And the process differs depending upon the Visa held when beginning the process

I applied for a non-O last year:

1. I apply my non-O through a well connected agent.

2. The parts about photo, as in has to have 40 photos of you doing your job in a report is new. Not only that, the report also needs to indicate who else is in the photo, what you are doing, what date, what time, and where. The rumor is that some higher upper really like reports from a certain NGO, and therefore want everyone to do the same.

3. If someone needs to check up on you, they will come. The check is used to be conducted by local police department. Now, it's conducted by officers from regional HQ.

4. Generally speaking, if you didn't have all the documents ready, you're done. The only thing you can do, is do over.

Boy

@Da***

, you sure know how to ask questions that generate healthy discourse ;)

Again it is the lack of consistency when it comes to - will the I/O who is processing a one year Extension of a B Visa be picky about the photos or not? ... Will the I/O visit the Business or not? Only evidence from other very recent applicants in that office can shed light on what they do or will do or not

what is this question about getting non B without Work permit? I have never applied for non B having to have a work permit.

I thought a fellow posted here the other day the Thai Consulate in Saigon / Ho Chi Mign City would process a B Visa without a WP. 3 Receipt. Was I imagining things?

Just buy an Elite Visa if your this paranoid about the rules....but you still can’t work on a Thai Elite Visa

Yes and yes

1 - AFAIK only Hong Kong will issue a 90 day Non-B without a work permit or a WP3 receipt

2 - serious as a heart attack. You'll need photos of you at your desk, in front of the address sign, with workers standing around you etc.

3- there is no 90 day inspection period. You pull :O I mean get a 90 day Non-B visa and then you go apply for the yearly extension of stay (usually when you have 30 days or less left on the current stamp). They either approve the year on the spot or give you a paper stating to come back in 30 days to get the extension inked into your passport. They can come during the 30 days and inspect your office if they want, but it's totally up to them whether they do or not.

4 - if you're asking if you can't get a work permit straightened out in the 90 days you got when you entered on your Non-B, the answer is nope, you can't get any extension on it other than the year or the 7 days get out of thailand and buy a new visa one.

You'd have to go to a consulate, get a new Non-B and start the process over again
