July 14, 200322 yr Hi everyone, I'm new to this board and am glad I found it. I would like to ask some questions regarding moving to Thailand as a PR. I went recently to BKK and have been to HKT as a tourist, but would like to further explore my options in Thailand as a PR/Citizen. The following is more info about myself : Nationality - Singaporean Age - 32 this year Qualifications - Degree in Graphic & Media Design Work experience - Been working since 1998 as a an art director and web designer for a publishers' rep here in Singapore. Total number of years experience as an art director/web designer, about 6 years. Can anyone offer advise or tips on moving up North? TIA
July 14, 200322 yr In Thailand, getting PR status, or Thai Citizenship, is much more difficult than in Singapore. In Singapore, with a job and the proper qualifications, and PR status is granted. In the short time, you should find a job in Thailand, together with a Work Permit and Visa. Requirement for WorkPermit: - http://www.thaivisa.com/288.0.html Requirement for Visa (Non-Immigrant - Business) - http://www.thaivisa.com/275.0.html Jobs: - http://www.jobsdb.com - http://www.nationejobs.com Not sure how is the market for Web Designer in Thailand ... Good Luck ... PS: You don't happen to have a Thai Wife ?
July 14, 200322 yr Author Thanks for the reply. I know it's real easy to get citizenship in Singapore because they've made it a joke as far as immigration rules go. I don't have a Thai wife(wife's Malaysian BTW) so I guess I'll go the job/business route.
July 14, 200322 yr Graphic Design is a tough market for many foreign firms in Thailand. However, I know one that is hiring as they are the exception. E-mail me and I'll pass your name on to them.
