Looking for good reputable visa agent in Bangkok. Please help

Well I must say, for a Bronze 5yr Thai Elite Visa I wasn't expecting over $30,000 AUD...🤔

Back to the drawing board...🤔

Recently married to my Thai partner...🙏. Registered etc in Thailand.👍

Looking at a Partner Visa to Australia, she has been twice on a tourist visa but I feel she is not ready for settling here, Australia is not good, will miss her family, food, culture etc (she is 44)... I want out, plus the process is fkn expensive.

I feel it is better that I move over there (I'm 54). Work in Western Australia, mining (for years) and feel that I'm better to continue this from a financial perspective. What is my best option? What is the best visa I should go for? I would need, probably need 1 month work in Australia, 1 month in Thailand...and that good vary....could be 3 weeks of work, 6 weeks in Thailand...

Look forward to anyone who does this, has experience in this situation...🙏

Hi guys so I made my application as business owner in uk basically a glorified employment agency with a few extras in, insurance, paper work (rams) all able.to be done remotely and I get asked for additional docs which I was fully aware I would, point one yes can answer...im sole director....2nd point....i have many contracts running ? Shall I just pdf a few copies into one document so they see my company is dealing with blue chip clients in uk?.....3rd point I'm just going to get my accountant to write a letter confirming what I do and I can do it remotely along with payslip and dividends taken.....will this do? Covering letter i will do on company headed paper.

Long one I agree If this not.possible and rejected can I just then go for thai elite visa without any hassle?

If you can help with any of the above from previous experience then great.

Has anyone had any experience with the elite thai visa process? Wondering what the cost of renewal is. Thanks in advance

I remember reading in the past people were refused an elite visa after getting an education visa. I guess the DTV is still too new to know if anyone has had issues getting an elite visa after getting a DTV visa?

Oh dear me. There is a shock. You cannot work in Thailand, even remotely, on an Elite Visa. Pretty much redundant with DTV. Unless I am missing something.[members only]

Dear Expat Community,

I'm reaching out because I'm growing weary of the constant cycle of 30- and 90-day visas. I'm seeking advice on long-term residency options. I'm fortunate to have sufficient financial resources and a retirement account.

I'm hoping to connect with fellow expats who have successfully navigated the process of obtaining a one-year visa or residency permit. Any insights, tips, or recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

Wishing you all a joyous holiday season filled with peace, love, and prosperity.

Hey everyone,

I’m considering applying for a Thai Elite Visa (either Bronze or Gold) for a long-term stay in Thailand.

If the visa is approved and everything goes smoothly (including getting the membership card), is there a specific time frame to get the visa affixed after approval? Or can I get the visa affixed at any time as long as the membership is valid?

Thanks in advance!
