TESTIMONIALS

What our customers have to say

  • Trevor D.
    Digital Marketing Manager

    "After exiting from my last company, I was faced with the dilemma of trying to trying to figure out to stay living in Thailand. My options were to set up my own company, find another employer or go through an agency. Having lived in Thailand for the past 8 years, I knew these options were problematic & expensive.

    Then I found PlayLab. They set me up with a new visa & work permit without having to leave the country, allowing me to stay living & work with the freedom & flexibility I was after."

  • Stephen S.
    Founder (Tech Startup)

    "Years back, I had spent time living and working as a digital nomad through South East Asia. When my partner and I began on our next project, we were debating on leaving the US and working somewhere with a lower cost of living. 

    Both of us having spent time in Thailand, Thailand was at the top of our list. We came across Playlab while researching visa solutions for ourselves. 

    Playlab was able to get both my partner & set up with our visas and into Thailand in less than a month. The process has been great"

Frequently Asked Questions

Can’t find the answer you’re looking for? Reach out to our customer support team.
How soon can I relocate to Thailand?

You and/or your employees can be visa-ready to enter Thailand in less than a month. We ship your visa application paperwork to you within 10-15 business days of payment. Visit the Thai E-Visa Official Website to check if you are eligible for online application.

What documents do I need to provide?

1. Passport scan
2. Diploma scan
3. Reference letters verifying experience

Upfront, we just need a scan of your passport. Reference letters and an educational certificate are required later in the work permit process, after entering Thailand.

I’m already in Thailand. Do I need to leave and re-enter the country?

That depends on your Thai visa type and history. Tourist visas can typically be converted for a fee, while other visa types are already compatible with a work permit (Non Bs, spousal visas, child visas, etc). Education and volunteer visas are unfortunately difficult to convert in-country; a border run to a nearby country is almost always necessary.

Can I get visas for my family as well?

Yes. Your spouse and/or children may apply for Non-Immigrant O ("Non O") tied to your Non B. We do not charge additional service fees for preparing visa application paperwork for dependents. Marriage and/or birth certificate is required. Dependents are not covered under Thailand Social Security, unless they obtain a work permit.

How many years can I renew / extend the visa? How long can I stay?

That's the great thing about Non-Immigrant visas – they can be extended indefinitely. Once you hold 3 consecutive 1-year visa extensions, tied to the same work permit, you may apply for Permanent Residency (PR). The permanent residence permit will allow you to stay in Thailand indefinitely without needing a visa.
