Ideally, you need to have at least 5 years remaining in the validity of your passport. However, in case you have less than 5 years, the Thai Embassy or Immigration Bureau will affix the Thai Elite Visas based on the expiration date stated in your passport. The remaining validity of your visa will then be affixed to your new passport. It is also good to note that you need to have at least 3 blank pages in your passport.

WHAT CUSTOMERS ARE SAYING
"Baan Smile is a wonderful service for anyone who wants assistance navigating the Thai immigration system. They offer a wide variety of services to help expats who move to Thailand. They helped us with visas and finding an apartment. The staff responded to e-mails and texts quickly and were always very friendly. I highly recommend Baan Smile."
