ubonjoe Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 He will need a letter of approval for a work permit application before he can apply for the visa. His employer will need to supply the other documents needed. The general requirements for the visa can be found here: http://www.mfa.go.th/main/en/services/123/15388-Non-Immigrant-Visa-%22B%22-(for-Business-and.html Penang would probably be the best place to apply for the visa. You may be able to get a single entry non-o for yourself and family when he applies for his visa. But they may not do it until he obtains and extension of stay at immigration.You will need your marriage and birth certificates. If not in English they will need to be translated to Thai and the translation certified by the Ministry of Foreign affairs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they do not know expect problems. One of te experts will be along soon to provide detail. In my experience employers, unfortunately, are often pretty far from being clued up as to WP and Visa issues/processes, however the job itself may be fine in the end. So it's definitely best to elicit a second opinion. WP application first (use form TT1 if already in Thailand or TT3 if still outside of the country, then Letter of Approval, then single entry 90 day non immigrant 'b' visa application, then return to Thailand collect WP and start work. Form_tt1.pdf Form_tt3.pdf Visa application papers as per Mario's MFA Link. Penang is a pleasant trip, Khota Bharu is a strict Islamic town, so the consulate is closed Fri, Sat and Thai/Malay Public Holidays but open Sundays. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
