Thailand offers several visa types: Tourist Visa (60 days, extendable), Non-Immigrant B (business/employment), Non-Immigrant O (family, retirement, volunteering), Non-Immigrant ED (education), and the Thailand Elite Visa (long-term, premium). Each has specific eligibility requirements and renewal processes.
Technically yes — you can visit the Phuket Immigration Office and file yourself. However, the process involves specific documentation and procedures that vary by visa type. Mistakes can result in delays, fines, or denial. Many clients find professional assistance saves time and reduces risk.
Work permit processing typically takes 1–4 weeks after all documents are submitted. The timeline depends on the completeness of documentation, the type of work permit, and current processing volumes at the Department of Employment.
