What is the change? Thailand’s Board of Investment has partnered with the Immigration Bureau and the Department of Employment to launch a new service that will allow BOI-registered companies to file work permit, visa and renewal applications electronically.

BAL Analysis: The new work permit and visa service should ease application processes for BOI-registered companies. The program will be implemented in phases, but will become mandatory Jan. 1 for applicants using the One-Stop Service Center in Bangkok or the immigration or employment offices in Chiang Mai and Phuket. It will become mandatory across Thailand in October 2018.
