Which route fits your trip
Thailand moved visa applications onto its official e-Visa website. For a business visit, the Non-Immigrant B route asks for the passport bio page, a recent photo, a document showing where you are applying from, proof of funds and an invitation letter from the Thai company.
The official site sets the funds at no less than 30,000 THB for a single entry and 120,000 THB for multiple entries. It also tells applicants to check the relevant embassy’s website for extra documents, so we confirm the Islamabad list for each trip.
Processing times are set by the embassy. Apply well ahead of fairs such as THAIFEX in Bangkok, when demand is high.
What a strong file usually contains
Every case is different; this is the base list we start from.
- A valid passport with at least six months’ validity and blank pages
- Recent photographs to the official specification
- An employer letter stating your role, the purpose of the trip and who pays
- Company documents, such as registration and tax records
- Personal or company bank statements
- Hotel booking and return or onward ticket
- Invitation letter from the Thai company
- Bank statements for the last three months

Why files get refused or returned
Most delays come from documents that do not match each other or the stated purpose of the trip.
- Names, dates or company details that differ between the invitation and the application
- A vague purpose with no company names or dates
- Weak evidence of employment or finances
- Applying too close to the travel date
- Previous overstays or immigration problems
Before you fly and at the border
Check the name, passport number, validity and number of entries as soon as the visa is issued. Carry printed copies of the visa, the invitation and the hotel booking; the border officer decides on entry and the length of stay.
Leave before the permitted stay ends. Overstaying can lead to fines and make future applications harder for you and your company.
