Non-Immigrant B (Business) Visa

If you’re thinking about working, starting a business, or investing in Thailand, here’s how we’ll do it together.
First, we need to secure a job offer, business plan, or sponsorship from a Thai company. Then, we’ll gather all your required documents.

We’ll help prepare every detail and communicate with your employer or partners as needed. Next, we’ll submit your application for the Non-B Visa, which is usually valid for 90 days to start. Once you arrive in Thailand, we’ll help you extend your visa for up to one year (and beyond, with annual renewals). Finally, we’ll guide you through the work permit process so you’re fully legal and ready to start your new adventure in Thailand with confidence.

Retirement Visa (Non-Immigrant O or OA)

If you’re ready to retire in Thailand, here’s what we need to do together.
First, you’ll need to be at least 50 years old and meet the financial requirement—usually showing at least 800,000 THB in a Thai bank or steady monthly income.

We’ll help you open your bank account, prepare all your documents, and take care of translations.
Next, we’ll submit your application for a one-year Retirement Visa.
Once you have your visa, we’ll support you with annual renewals and remind you about 90-day reporting and other easy compliance steps, so you can focus on enjoying your retirement in Thailand.

Five-Year Retirement Visa

If you want a longer, more flexible retirement in Thailand, we need to consider the Five-Year Retirement Visa.
This option is perfect for retirees aged 50 or over who want to stay in Thailand without annual visa renewals.
First, we’ll check that you meet the requirements, such as a steady income or substantial savings, and that you have health insurance coverage as required by Thai authorities.

Next, we’ll help you gather all the necessary documents, including proof of funds, insurance, and your background check.
We’ll submit your application and guide you through every step, making sure you’re set up for a smooth five-year stay.
With this visa, you can truly settle in and enjoy your retirement—knowing that SiamConsult is by your side for every renewal, report, and question along the way.

Marriage Visa (Non-Immigrant O)

If you’re married to a Thai citizen, here’s how we’ll secure your Marriage Visa together.
First, we’ll gather your marriage certificate and proof of your relationship, then make sure you meet the financial requirement—usually showing at least 400,000 THB in a Thai bank or steady monthly income.

We’ll help prepare all the paperwork and handle translations if needed.
Next, we’ll submit your application for a one-year Marriage Visa.

After you receive your visa, we’ll support you with each annual renewal, 90-day reporting, and any other requirements—making sure you stay fully compliant and can enjoy life in Thailand with your partner.

Education Visa (Non-Immigrant ED)

If you want to study in Thailand—whether it’s Thai language, Muay Thai, university, or another course—here’s how we’ll get your Education Visa together.

First, we’ll help you secure a confirmed place at your chosen school or university and obtain the official acceptance letter.
Next, we’ll organize all your supporting documents and check that your enrollment meets the visa requirements.

We’ll then submit your application for the initial 90-day Education Visa.
Once you’re studying, we’ll assist with your extensions so you can stay for the full duration of your course, making the paperwork and renewals simple and stress-free.

Thailand Elite Visa

If you want the most convenient and flexible way to stay long-term in Thailand, we need to look at the Thailand Elite Visa together. First, we’ll review the different membership packages—like Elite Gold (5 years), Elite Platinum (10 years), and Elite Diamond (15-20 years)—each with its benefits and fees. You choose the option that fits your goals and lifestyle.

Next, we’ll prepare and submit your application, making sure all your documents are correct for smooth approval.
After approval, we’ll help you pick up your Elite card and explain how to enjoy your privileges, like airport fast track, VIP support, and no annual visa renewals or border runs.
With us, the process is straightforward from start to finish.

Permanent Resident Visa

If your goal is to live in Thailand permanently—no more annual extensions or visa runs—then we need to work on your Permanent Resident Visa together.

First, you’ll need at least three consecutive years of long-term Thai visas, a strong financial record, and a clean background. We’ll help you gather and prepare all the required documents, including translations and certificates.

Next, we’ll guide you through the application process, help you get ready for the official interview, and make sure everything is submitted correctly. The process can take several months and competition is high, but we’ll be with you every step until you receive your red residence book and can finally call Thailand your permanent home.

LTR (Long-Term Resident) Visa

If you’re a skilled professional, wealthy retiree, or high-net-worth individual, we need to explore the LTR (Long-Term Resident) Visa together.

This visa lets you live in Thailand for up to 10 years, gives you the right to work, and comes with valuable tax benefits. First, we’ll help you figure out which category you qualify for—such as work, wealth, or special skills—then check the requirements like income level, assets, or employment.

Next, we’ll gather all the supporting documents and proof you need for your chosen category. We’ll prepare and submit your application, guide you through any interviews, and keep you updated on every step until your LTR Visa is approved and you’re set for your new chapter in Thailand.
