Visa & Work Permit in Krabi — About us

Krabi is an international tourism province — hotels, resorts, and service businesses with substantial foreign investment and residency — while inland it remains large-scale palm and rubber. The recurring issues are beachfront land and contested title documents, hotel and service-business licensing, foreign holding structures, hospitality labour cases, and plantation disputes.

A good deal of southern beachfront land has a title history that must be traced back before purchase or investment, because the problem surfaces at the construction-permit or transfer stage. We trace the history first, every time. The team works in Thai, English, and Chinese, runs the file from our Khon Kaen head office and Bangkok branch, and travels to appear at the Krabi Provincial Court.

Frequently asked questions — Visa & Work Permit in Krabi

8 questions answered

You must hold a Non-Immigrant B (Non-B) visa before applying for a Work Permit. We handle both the visa conversion and the Work Permit filing together in one process.
Generally the company needs THB 2M registered capital per foreigner and 4 Thai employees per foreigner — except BOI-promoted businesses, which receive special privileges. We check eligibility and plan ahead before filing.
Long-stay visa holders must report their address to Immigration every 90 days; missing it incurs a fine. We track the deadline and file the report online or in person on your behalf.
Retirement visas (O-A/O-X) are for those aged 50+ meeting deposit/income thresholds, while the marriage visa (O) is for spouses of Thai nationals — the financial criteria differ. We advise the category best suited to you.
The LTR Visa (10 years) suits high-net-worth individuals, retirees, remote workers, and skilled professionals, while the SMART Visa targets experts and investors in targeted industries. We assess eligibility and handle the full process.
