How It Works
Our Process
A clear, structured approach from start to finish.
Step 1: BOI Status & Eligibility Confirmation
We verify the promotion certificate, confirm the position falls within the BOI-approved project scope, and assess investor vs. executive vs. expert classification.
Step 2: Application Assembly & Translation
Complete OSSC dossier: notarised corporate documents, BOI promotion certificate, professional credentials, investment documentation, Thai-translated supporting materials.
Step 3: BOI OSSC Submission & Processing
We submit to the OSSC and maintain liaison throughout the 10–15 working day processing period, addressing any agency information requests immediately.
Step 4: Visa + Work Permit Issuance & Ongoing Compliance
Upon OSSC approval, Immigration issues the IB visa and digital work permit together. We set up 90-day reporting and manage annual extensions through the Immigration Bureau.

Plizz vs the Alternatives
Not All BOI Filing Support Is the Same
OSSC documentation standards are strict — incomplete applications are suspended, not returned. The difference is who knows the format before submission.
| Dimension | DIY / Direct Application | Visa Agent | Plizz |
|---|---|---|---|
| BOI OSSC documentation standards | Self-navigated; errors cause suspension | Common errors: wrong position description vs. promotion scope | Prepared to OSSC spec; investment-route bank certification format handled |
| BOI promotion milestone tracking | Not monitored | Not monitored | Tracked — lapse risk flagged 6 months ahead |
| Investor route (THB 10M+) structuring | Self-managed | Not coordinated | Investment structured and certified before application is filed |
| Combined visa + work permit timeline | ~6–8 weeks if clean; delays if errors | 4–6 weeks; risk of suspension | ~2 weeks via OSSC for clean applications |
Who This Is For
Who Needs a Non-Immigrant IB Visa?
Non-IB is exclusively for executives, investors, and technical experts at BOI-promoted companies — it is not optional, it follows your company's BOI status.
- Foreign executives appointed to management positions at BOI-promoted companies — directors, regional presidents, finance heads
- International investors holding THB 10M+ in qualifying Thai instruments (condominium, government bonds, fixed deposits) seeking BOI investor-track visa status
- Technical specialists and engineers critical to the implementation of a BOI-promoted project — named in the BOI promotion documentation
- Multinational companies establishing BOI-promoted regional headquarters or manufacturing operations who need to relocate senior staff quickly
- Founders of Thai subsidiaries with BOI promotion who need executive-level hires running before Thai headcount reaches the 4:1 standard-track threshold

Why Plizz
Why Choose Plizz for Your IB Visa
Non-IB applications are a coordination exercise between BOI promotion status, OSSC filing, and Immigration Bureau visa stamp timing. We manage all three so your key hires are on-site when the project needs them.
2-Week Combined Issuance via BOI OSSC
The BOI One-Stop Service Center issues visa and digital work permit together — roughly 2 weeks for a clean application versus 8–10 weeks through standard channels. Speed matters when ramping a new Thai operation.
No 4:1 Ratio or THB 2M Capital Hurdle
For BOI-approved positions, both the Thai-employee ratio and the paid-up capital requirements are waived — so you can hire senior expat talent before your Thai headcount has scaled.
Investment Structuring for the THB 10M Track
For investor-route IB applicants, we coordinate qualifying investment documentation across eligible instruments — condominiums, government bonds, fixed deposits — so the investment satisfies the OSSC and aligns with your financial goals.
BOI Promotion Synced with Visa
We handle IB visa applications as a single coordinated engagement with the BOI promotion certificate — eliminating the risk that visa timing slips behind the corporate BOI timeline.
