Is it easy to transfer your work visa?

For example if I get sponsored by company A, and then after a year apply for company B, will B have a hard time getting the work visa transferred?

I ask because so many companies ask if I am authorized to work in Thailand and if I need visa sponsorship, but only one company (I dont want to work long term in this one) is willing

Hi, similar to comment below about Non-O and non-B couple but different Q. We've just arrived. My husband (teacher) is getting a non-B I think from our current 90 days O types. I will be dependent spouse as couldn't move with my job, but want to work and thinking of setting myself up for DTV, then leaving country to apply when my current 90 days expires then coming back in if successful on it. We're about to sign a tenancy agreement in both our names. Is this fine or should we put it just in his name? Just wondering if going to be an issue to have a residential agreement with my name on it if I'm applying for DTV from another location...?

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.

Hi guys.

Sorry if I get confused with the terminologies about visas and entries, please correct me if I do. I'm Brazilian, I can stay 90 days visa free as a tourist (I don't need to go to any embassy or need evisa to enter Thailand, the bilateral agreement has been set a couple of years ago and it's never changed)

I have some questions, I think they're common but different in their own way (same same but diffelant)

1 - is there any limit on the 90 days, non-o single entry visa based on marriage? I want to marry my gf, but I can't prove I have 400k in my account. She and her family are ok with me being "poor" falang, we already sorted out the personal issues of dowry and wedding. I'm worried about the immigration office and passport control. The point is that if I live with her and have a place to stay I can save money eventually and have the 400k baht in the near future

2 - I have stayed maybe around 5 months in Thailand last year in total. In 2023 I entered in January, left in March, and stayed one and a half month away. Came back in May and left in August. Do you think I may have any problems when coming back now by air? I'll buy a ticket out of Thailand just in case

3 - Can I apply for a work permit if I have the 90 days non-o single entry based on marriage? I doubt it, since it's very little time and it doesn't seem interesting for the kingdom. I work remotely, but I'd like some extra work

TIA 🙏

American, non-retirement age, with long history of only tourist visas here.

Have first Thai child due in early Jan 2024. Plan to marry with gf of 5+ years before I depart September 21, IF I can secure appt with US Embassy BKK (or perhaps CM consulate) to get affidavit re being free to marry etc…if Ubon Amphur requires it, which I’m planning to confirm same post-holiday. I plan to continue to work in US as much as possible while attempting to secure US visa f/ wife and US passport/citizenship f/ child.

My question(s):

- What are my best visa options/extension combos/etc…that will allow me to spend minimum 5-6 months in Thailand without holding funds in a Thai bank OR requiring me to make visa runs?

- What is the easiest visa path that will allow me to get a work permit if wife & I start a business that will allow me to supplement my US income while we wait for the US visa process to complete?

- 2023 was in country from Feb 13 to Sept 21 on air arrival/visa exempt + ext, (Laos) TR60 + ext, (Laos) TR60.

Am I ok to come back between Jan-March 2024 visa exempt?

TIA 🙏🏼

Hello everyone I have a few questions below if you could help me out

I’m looking to start a small business here in thailand

The business will be similar and small, like a coffee shop, ice cream shop, etc. but we’ll have our own twist. So just a small little shop. 

1) what is visa requirement to do this

2) what is the investment requirement by government standards

3) do I have to hire locals to work, or those there have to be a national with ownership in it as well?

Good evening everyone. Its been a while but I wonder if I can ask your advice again. Stupidly I let my bank balance slip before the renewal date of my 1 year marriage visa. So I guess I'm going to have to go to a consulate and start again. Anyone have any recent experience with ho chi min? The website site says there are no appointments until 1st Nov which is too late for me. Do they stick by these or can I walk In? Also wanted to ask how the evisa works? It's all new to me. If I apply online to UK embassy for an evisa non o. Multi. Cam I print it. Fly to Vietnam or where ever. Then just fly home and present the paper? Sorry if this is a dumb question. Thank you all kindly. Neil

Hope I’m allowed to ask this here, admin?

I’m in the UK and have just been issued a non-b e-visa for teaching by Thai Embassy London.

IS that all I need to enter Thailand? I was expecting to have to go in to the Thai Embassy and verify my qualifications etc, but they have not asked for this and just issued the visa??

Any advice would be appreciated.

Hello I'm Thai and currently working in Myanmar, I'm married with Myanmar wife here with completed legal document. however i plan to come back for working in Thailand next month.

My question is..

1.) If my wife will do non-o marriage visa (Thai husband) and follow me to Thailand, after that can she apply for job or get work permit for working in Thailand?

If can not so can change marriage visa to non-b business visa for apply job later or not? and my wife can do this method in Thailand or need to trip back to do business visa again in Myanmar?

2.) For non-o marriage visa (Thai husband) if my wife need to stay longer in Thailand, Did she need to open bank account and put money at least 2 months before apply extension for 1 year marriage visa and need to put money at least 400,000 baht or how much?

Thank you for your all kind answers
