Scuba Instructor + Girlfriend Visas?


Recommended Posts

Hi everyone,

Please can anyone help with some visa info?I am 31 years old,british citizen and wanting to come to thailand soon.I am a scuba instructor and will be looking for work in thailand when I arrive.If I am employed,will the dive club be able to help me with a work visa?By this I mean,would it be necessary for me to leave thailand to obtain this visa.I know the work permit stipulates you have a job before you arrive in thailand,But are there ways around this.I would like to stay for one year initially and hopefully as long as I can if all things go well.My girlfriend will be joining me after 3 months and will want to find work as well.(Not in the dive industry,possibly in a restuarant or hotel.)Should we both just initially come on the multiple re-entry visa?Many thanks Tezza

Apply to the Royal Thai Consulate in Hull for a multiple entry Non Immigrant visa class O based upon coming here to visit family and friends..........their website explains everything.

If you then find work you can apply for a work permit from there.

Your girlfriend will need to apply for her own Non Imm O........providing she isnt Thai of course.If she isnt Thai forget about her working in a restaurant..............its a non starter.
