Visa & Work Permit in Yala — About us

Yala is a rubber and fruit province whose Betong district is a major crossing into Malaysia — significant enough to have its own provincial court — and one of the four provinces where the court applies Islamic law on family and inheritance with a Dato Yutithum sitting. The caseload covers cross-border trade and travel, plantations and land, tourism business in Betong, and family and inheritance matters under Islamic principles.

Cases here require establishing at the outset whether general law or Islamic law governs, because the resulting shares and heirs differ substantially and the point is hard to correct later. We settle the status and the governing principles before acting, run the file from our Khon Kaen head office and Bangkok branch, and travel to appear at the Yala and Betong Provincial Courts.

Frequently asked questions — Visa & Work Permit in Yala

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.
