Thai One-Year Visa

Once the Work Permit is approved and issued, its validity will match the date of expiration of the applicant’s non-immigrant visa at the time the Work Permit was issued. Therefore the most logical next step after obtaining a Work Permit is to apply for a One-Year Visa with the Immigration Bureau, based on the issued Work Permit.

It has to be noted that the visa process is entirely independent and unrelated to the procedure in obtaining a Work Permit. A valid Work Permit does not guarantee the right to stay in Thailand, nor does a valid business visa guarantee the right to work in Thailand. At Bangkok Base, we are experienced with all these procedures, and can expedite your visa and work permit application process.
