What are the requirements for a work permit in Thailand?
For most cases: Registered Thai company. Minimum 2 million THB capital per foreign employee. At least 4 Thai employees for every 1 foreigner. Your role must be legal for foreigners (some jobs are restricted). We prepare all documents to meet these requirements.
How many Thai employees are required for a work permit?
Normally 4 Thai employees per foreigner. Some industries or BOI (Board of Investment) companies have different rules - we check your case and advise.
Can I change from a tourist visa to a business visa in Thailand?
Yes - in many cases you can convert without leaving the country if your employer or company meets the requirements. We handle the conversion process so you avoid overstays.
How long does it take to get a business visa and work permit?
You’ll need either: An employer in Thailand, OR Your own registered Thai company. If you don’t have either yet, we can help you set up your business.
