Frequently Asked Questions

Can Hong Konger applicants file the 90-Day Report themselves?

Yes, self-filing is possible. Most Hong Konger clients still engage professionals because (1) source-country documents require lengthy translation and legalisation, (2) ตม. operates primarily in Thai, and (3) missing documents force restarts that cost far more time than the service fee.

What is the total timeline?

Roughly 4–8 weeks: translation and legalisation from Hong Kong SAR take 2–4 weeks, then Thai filing at ตม. takes 1–3 business days.

What is the total cost?

Government fees from THB 1,500 + NYC Legal service fee THB 15,000–35,000 depending on complexity + foreign-document legalisation THB 3,000–10,000 depending on volume.

What changes for Hong Kong SAR documents after 28 Feb 2027?

If Hong Kong SAR is a Hague member, its documents receive Apostille instead of full legalisation — saving 5–15 business days and THB 1,000–3,000 per document.

Can family members follow?

Yes. The 90-Day Report typically grants Non-O Dependent status for spouse and children under 20, renewable together with the principal visa.

Can I work in Thailand on this visa?

Yes — with a Work Permit filed at the Ministry of Labour (some visas such as LTR and Smart Visa do not require a separate WP).
