Please keep in mind that although I will be consulting here. Probably 75% of the clients I do business with are outside of the Kingdom. Maybe 25% of my 'business activity' will be for Thai customers and the majority of my time here would not be invested in working for the customers here. To me that doesn't in any way indicate employment in Thailand.

I will be able to obtain reference letters from my Thai clients for Visa purposes so my best bet is?;

• Multiple entry Non-Im B for 9 months?
• 1 Year business visa?
• I can enter as often as i like on both Visas however doing border runs are Ill advised where as leaving for a week or two and returning should cause no issues?
• Can I apply for both of these Visa's in HK or do I need to be in my home country to apply?
• Any idea of costs?

All the best,

A non-b visa can be issued fro business purposes. There is no business visa, A multiple entry non-b visa allows unlimited 90 day entries for a year,

You can do a out/in at a border crossing with a non-b visa but you might be asked what you are doing here and/or be asked to show a work permit.

Unless you are a HK citizen or resident you will be unlikely to get the multiple entry visa there. Your home country may be the only place you can get one.

The fee for a multiple entry visa is 5000.

I would apply for non-b visa while in Thailand? No need to apply from overseas?

I currently hold a non-b through my employer. Do you know if I can apply for another while still holding this one? (this one will be cancelled by employer when I resign).

All the best,

Can I apply for IB from Hong Kong?

I currently have an IB through my employer, am I amble to apply for one for myself or a business visa in the name of my ltd company whilst still holding one through my employer? (If I quit my job they will cancel my current Non-Imm B within 7 days)

Occasionally I would attend customer meetings with my Thai customers. I could make this as often or as little as I like to be honest, one weekly, once monthly...

How will anybody know if I'm sitting in my condo or in coffee shop working? I'll not have an office or staff in Thailand....

Why could I not apply for a business visa in the name of my Australian or Singaporean business to enter Thailand for 90 days at a time for the odd meetings and to 'work' from home?

I'll more than likely have customers which would provide proof of meetings/emails etc...

I guess you would call it consulting however I'd need to spend little if no time actually with my clients or working from their sites. I'd be based at home or in drop in office/coffee shops or similar.

I'm looking for the most effective way to remain long term with the odd week or two working in countries of my other clients - Oz, HK, Malaysia etc.

Hi friends,

I'm establishing a business offshore as I can't be arsed with the hassle of it in Thailand. I want full ownership and so on and so on however I do live here at present.

I want to remain living here while running my offshore business. I will be conducting business with Thai and regional customers.

Any suggestions about the best way to remain, I don't mind doing 90 day visa runs etc, I just can't get my head around whether I need to return home to Europe to apply for business visa? Can I apply from HK? Do I need non immigrant b instead?

Can somebody shed some light?

All the best,

I'd also re-think your 'letting you partner' set up the business idea.

Once it is set up and trading it will be his/her company with your idea.... Do you trust the person that much?

All the best,
