Renevdkooi Posted January 22, 2003 Share Posted January 22, 2003 Hi, Info: 22 Yrs, Netherlands, IT specialist. Require: Moving to Thailand, stay in bangkok, find job and appartment. Story: I want to move to Thailand in a few months, on arrival in bangkok I will have about 180000 bht on my account. I will have a returning ticket valid for 6 months. I want to be able to find a job there, without having to worry about my visa, so I need a non-immigrant B visa. Also I want to rent an appartment. todo? Is a price for an appartment apprx 4000bth/month (that's what a friend of mine told me in bangkok), and can I do this without any type of visa yet. Also, What part do I do in the Netherlands and which part do I do in Thailand? Request the Non-immi b visa in the netherland? if so, Don't I already need a job offer in thailand? What are things to keep in mind when doing all this? And is 180000bth (4000 Euro) enough to be able to go around for at least 6 months. Then as extra: If anybody knows a good appartment complex in bangkok, please let me know. Extra 2: If anybody knows an company in Thailand that requires MCSE 2000 engeneers, let me know, Or any other nice job, such as tuktuk driver Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dr_Pat_Pong Posted January 22, 2003 Share Posted January 22, 2003 Apply for a Non Immigrant B Visa at the Royal Thai Consulate -General Mmastrat 40 1075 HW Amsterdam Tel 3120 6799916\Read the guidance info on the previous postings about what is needed...eg a decent letter on letterhead. An apt is more likely to be 10.000 Bht per month...I don't know how you live but the money might not last 6 months. You might be better off trying to get a job before you get here.

Renevdkooi Posted January 23, 2003 Author Share Posted January 23, 2003 But don't I need a job offer to get the non immigrant b visa? I saw on a appartment website a few appartments for around 4000 bht. And otherwise I have some fthai friend where I already have been living and they really like it when I do so again. You think the money is not enough? The last time I was there for holiday i lost 50000bht on all my expenses, but then I was really having a blast and bought a lot.... so....Well I don't know. I'll see. But all the companies require the person to visit for an interview. And as I am still in the netherlands its a bit difficult. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
