Who this is for — and who it isn't
A specialist practice turns away as many cases as it accepts. Naming that upfront is part of how it earns trust.
This is for you if you're
- A remote worker or freelancer applying for a DTV
- A founder setting up a Thai company or seeking BOI promotion
- An employee who needs a work permit tied to a Thai entity
- Family joining someone who already holds a qualifying visa
This isn't the right fit if you need
- A same-day tourist visa run with no underlying case
- A guarantee of an outcome only a government authority controls
- General legal work outside Thai immigration or company law
Three steps, no surprises

Government fees and service fees, split apart
Figures below are illustrative examples, not live quotes — real pricing needs a licensed agent to review your situation.
The government fee goes directly to Thai authorities and is the same no matter who files it. The service fee is what covers the work itself — document review, scheduling, and follow-through. Splitting them is the only way a price actually means something; a single bundled number just hides which part is negotiable and which isn't.
| Category | Government fee | Service fee (example) |
|---|---|---|
| Retire in Thailand | ฿1,900–3,800 / year | ฿15,000–25,000 (example) |
| Work or Start a Business | From ฿6,000 (registration + permit) | ฿25,000–60,000 (example) |
| Stay With Family | ฿1,900–3,800 / year | ฿15,000–22,000 (example) |
| DTV & Remote Work | ฿10,000 (5-year visa) | ฿12,000–18,000 (example) |
| Extend My Stay | ฿1,900 | ฿6,000–12,000 (example) |
| Study in Thailand | ฿2,000 | ฿10,000–15,000 (example) |
| Resolve an Urgent Visa Issue | Overstay fine ฿500/day, max ฿20,000 | Quoted after review |
This page is a design concept by Ivan Lebedev, built to demonstrate premium bilingual web design for Bangkok advisory businesses — it does not offer immigration, legal, or business-registration services. All fees above are illustrative examples, not live quotes. Thai government authorities make every final visa and business decision; approval can never be guaranteed.
What you could actually check
Trust in this category is earned by specifics, not superlatives — everything below is the kind of detail a real practice would show.
[Specialist name placeholder]
8 years focused on DTV, work permits, and BOI-promoted company formation. Fluent EN/TH.
DBD company registration
[Registration number placeholder]
This practice only proceeds with cases that meet the underlying eligibility criteria. If a case doesn't qualify, that gets said plainly before any fee is charged — not after.
Common reasons cases get delayed
Company financials below BOI thresholds
Common cause of stalled BOI applications
Eligibility is checked against current BOI criteria before any application is filed
Missing 90-day or TM30 filings
Most common cause of extension complications
Reporting deadlines are tracked as part of the ongoing relationship, not left to the client alone
What working with a practice like this looks like
Illustrative examples for this concept — written to show the format a real practice would use, not real client accounts.
01
“The fee split was the first agency page that told me what was actually negotiable and what wasn't. I knew the total before I said yes to anything.”
[Illustrative example]
DTV applicant, applied from abroad
Illustrative example — not a real client.
02
“I'd been quoted three different prices by three agencies with no explanation. Seeing the government fee separated from the service fee made the decision easy.”
[Illustrative example]
Company formation & work permit
Illustrative example — not a real client.
03
“The eligibility quiz told me in a minute what a phone call would have taken twenty minutes to get to — and it was right.”

Frequently asked questions
Is this a real visa agency?
No. This page is a design concept by Ivan Lebedev, built to show what a premium Bangkok advisory site could look like. For an actual visa or business case, consult a licensed Thai immigration lawyer or registered agent.
Do you guarantee approval?
No — and any agency that says yes is telling you what you want to hear, not the truth. No one controls a government's decision. What's guaranteed is the accuracy of what gets submitted on your behalf.
What's the difference between your fee and the government fee?
The government fee goes to Thai authorities directly and never changes based on who files it. The service fee covers the work itself — document review, scheduling, and follow-through. Both are shown, every time a price appears.
How do I know this isn't a scam?
A registration number you can check, a named specialist you can ask for by name, and a plain statement that unsuitable cases get turned away before a fee is charged, not after.
Can I get a real answer before booking a call?
Yes — the free eligibility check above gives a personalized result in under a minute, with no email required.
My situation doesn't fit neatly into one category.
That's what the paid case assessment is for — a definitive written opinion from a person, not a quiz result, credited toward the service fee if you proceed.
I'm not in Thailand yet — can you actually help me?
Yes. DTV, in particular, has to be filed from outside Thailand by law, so working with clients remotely is core to how this practice operates, not an exception.
I run a Bangkok visa or consulting business — can Ivan build this for me?
Yes, that's exactly what this page exists to show — a real eligibility quiz, transparent pricing, and objection-handling built from actual market research. Get in touch and we can talk about your business specifically.
