If you plan to relocate to Thailand for work and want to take your family too? You’ll need to get a dependent visa in Thailand for your spouse and children so they can stay in the country alongside you, the process of getting dependent visas is fairly straightforward.

 

Non- Immigrant “O” (Follower)

Those who can obtain this type of visa can be 3 groups of people as follows:

1. Foreigners who sponsored Thai children.

2. Family/followers of "Non-B" visa holders with work permits in Thailand.

3. Family/followers of retirement visa holders which is under 50 years old.

​

 

When first applying for a dependent visa, your spouse or child will be granted a single-entry visa valid for a stay of 90 days.Their stay can be extended for 1 year at a time by applying for an extension at the local Immigration Office in Thailand. The application for extension should be made when there is still at least 21 days validity remaining on the current visa.

​

The Non-Immigrant “O” Visa for dependents does not allow them to legally work in Thailand. If Non- O holders wish to work, he or she should get the appropriate Non-Immigrant “B” Visa and Work Permit through their own employers.
