Visa & Work Permit in Ranong — About us

Ranong is a maritime crossing to Kawthaung in Myanmar and a fishing and cold-storage base with one of the country's highest reliance on migrant labour. The cases that arise are migrant labour and work permits, fisheries and vessel licensing, customs procedure and seized goods, seafood supply contracts, and debt recovery between operators on both sides.

Fishing and cold-storage operations can be inspected on labour, licensing, and customs at the same time, and answering one front at a time without the whole picture tends to produce statements that contradict each other. We align the entire response, run the file from our Khon Kaen head office and Bangkok branch, and travel to appear at the Ranong Provincial Court.

Frequently asked questions — Visa & Work Permit in Ranong

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.
