Hi everyone, I need some advice.

I'm under an investor visa in the UAE and recently applied under the *Soft Power* route in Dubai. I chose “Business Owner” when filling out the application. I read here that employment verification isn’t required for Soft Power, so I submitted a straightforward application.

They got back to me asking for more documents. I’m the manager of my own company, so I’m wondering:

1. Is a MOA stating I’m the manager enough instead of a contract?

2. I read that some of you created your own employment contracts to yourself. But if you’re a business owner, will this flag you?

3. Can I issue an NOC to myself and also be the authorized signatory?

I know each embassy may have different requirements, but I’d really appreciate hearing what worked for you regardless and if you're someone with the same experience in Dubai.

PS: Of course I will adhere to the requirements and still submit what's requested, I just want to be careful not to cause confusion.

Thanks in advance!

I own two companies in Japan and the US, and I am also an individual investor. Do I need to submit all of my income for the DTV application, not just proof of dividends from my individual investments?

Is there any foreign investor here? If I do not get an investor/elite visa, I intend to apply for a working visa as optional. From my understanding, If I want to start a tour company here, it appears that a local partnership with 51% ownership is required. The information I found online is quite out of date. Is this policy still in effect these days. Also, I discovered that there are numerous unregistered companies with no licenses operating tours in Thailand. (ex. [members only], [members only]/) Are the laws allowing this? They don't seem to be in any trouble. I'm looking for advice on starting a tour business in Thailand and I can't seek a clear information about it. What kind of visa and license do I need? I heard there is more than one license required. This is a little confusing.

Hi everyone 🙂

Has anyone experience with obtaining an Investor Visa? Insights and advice about the process, actual requirements and overall experience highly appreciated. Thank you in advance!

Hi guys a quick question about investor visa.

I understand the visa needs at least 10 million baht asset from buying condo or bond, or fixed deposit account.

I have read some articles over the internet and cannot find the answer, does the condo part over cover brand new condos? Second hand condos aren't covered under this visa program?

Hello, My girlfriend and I have arrived in Chiang Mai to check out a building project her father started but ran out of money near completion, approx 45 million baht was put into it. It’s been sitting in the hills for 15 years and now we want to take on the project and I have been made power of attorney and have teh chanote deed. We need advice on what type of visas could we possibly be eligible for and considering the substantial amount invested already by the company does that allow for us to maybe be open any type of investors visa? Thank you all for any help, much appreciated.

Hello everyone,

Could someone please help me clarify a definite answer for Thailand Investment Visa.

I am thinking of investing in Thailand by buying a new property (condominium unit, owned by Thai nationals over 51%).

A few sources states that not only the investor but also the investor’s family members are eligible for the investment visa.

Is it the correct information? And if it is, how does it actually work?

- Buying/ Investing under all the family members’ names or just under 1 (investor’s) name?

- Where could I find the legitimate source of information concerning Thailand Investment Visa?

Thank you in advance.

Cheers.
