Applying for Permanent Residence (PR) in Thailand is a significant step for foreign nationals who wish to settle or work long-term. The Thai Immigration Bureau generally opens applications towards the end of the year (e.g., October–December), though this may vary. Keep an eye on official announcements. Below are the key steps:

1. Check Your Eligibility
   • Hold a valid Non-Immigrant Visa continuously
   • Reside in Thailand for the legally required period (typically 3–5 years)
   • Maintain proper financial and tax documentation
2. Prepare Your Documents
   • Valid passport
   • Employment documents / Work Permit (if applicable)
   • Tax records, company documents (if doing business)
   • Police Clearance Certificate
   • Additional documents based on your case (e.g., marriage certificate, birth certificate, etc.)
3. Submit Application & Interview
   • Submit during the open application period at the Immigration Bureau
   • Pay the initial application fee and attend an interview with the review panel
4. Await Results & Finalize
   • Expect a review period of at least 6 months to a year
   • If approved, pay the remaining fee and register as a resident alien

• Processing Time: Timelines can vary depending on the type of visa or residence application. I provide realistic estimates and updates throughout the process.

When relocating with your family, you’ll need to prepare spousal or dependent visa applications, proof of relationship (such as marriage or birth certificates), and documentation of financial stability. I assist with the paperwork and ensure that every family member’s needs are taken care of for a smooth transition.

Applying for permanent residence requires meeting eligibility criteria, such as holding a work permit for at least three consecutive years. The process involves submitting comprehensive documentation, attending an interview, and fulfilling financial and employment requirements. I help you navigate the complexities and maximize your chances of approval.

To apply for a work permit in Thailand, you must first obtain the appropriate visa (such as a Non-Immigrant Visa). The work permit application involves submitting documents from both the employer and the applicant, including contracts, company registration details, and personal identification. I guide you through each step, ensuring all requirements are met for a successful application.
