We are delighted to accompany you on your Internship Visa journey — from your first question to final visa approval and successful placement in Thailand.
At SiamConsult, we believe that an internship is more than training — it’s a life-changing experience that opens professional and cultural doors.
You will receive clear instructions, bilingual checklists, and ongoing support to make every stage smooth and worry-free.
Since 2009, we have assisted students, graduates, and young professionals from around the world in securing legal internships across Krabi, Phuket, Koh Lanta, Koh Samui, Phi Phi, and Phang Nga.
From luxury resorts and travel companies to animal welfare centers and environmental projects, our mission is to make every placement legal, organized, and rewarding.
With official internship approval and company endorsement, you can apply for your visa at a Thai Embassy, Consulate, or within Thailand — with complete confidence that your documents are handled correctly.
Many of our clients choose to intern at five-star resorts, animal rescue foundations, or marine conservation programs — gaining hands-on experience while contributing to Thailand’s world-class hospitality and sustainability efforts.
With SiamConsult’s guidance, your internship becomes both professionally valuable and personally meaningful.
SiamConsult ensures that your paperwork, approvals, and timelines are carefully coordinated with Thai authorities — so you can focus on learning, growing, and enjoying your new professional chapter in Thailand.
IMPORTANT: While participating in an internship, please note that any paid work beyond your approved training agreement is not permitted unless you hold a valid work permit under a different visa category.
From us to you — with pride, precision, and care — welcome to your internship adventure in Thailand, and thank you for your trust in SiamConsult.
“Khun Jaa”
The Internship Visa allows foreign students, graduates, and trainees to live and work in Thailand legally while completing a recognized internship or practical training program. It is designed for individuals who want to combine international learning with real-world experience in one of Asia’s most dynamic and culturally rich environments. Thailand welcomes thousands of interns every year — from hospitality students in five-star resorts to conservation volunteers and business trainees in global companies.
This visa category supports both academic internships (linked to your university program) and professional training placements in Thai-registered companies, hotels, NGOs, and educational institutions. It allows you to gain practical experience while remaining legally in Thailand for the duration of your placement, under the Thai authorities’ oversight.
Depending on your program, SiamConsult will advise the most suitable visa pathway — either the Non-Immigrant ED Visa for university-linked internships or the Non-Immigrant B Visa (Business/Training Category) for company-based training programs.
Our team coordinates with the Ministry of Labour (MOL), the Immigration Bureau, and relevant agencies to ensure your internship is valid, traceable, and compliant under Thai law.
SiamConsult manages the process end-to-end — from reviewing your internship agreement and host company documents (e.g., DBD registration, tax details, and invitation letter) to preparing your visa submission and arranging your appointment. We coordinate among your school, your employer, and the authorities to ensure all endorsements are issued correctly and on time.
Thailand offers a wide variety of placements. Whether you envision working at a beachfront resort in Krabi, assisting marine researchers in Phang Nga, teaching in Koh Lanta, supporting animal care programs in Phuket, or joining a marketing team in Bangkok — each internship is an opportunity to gain experience while immersing yourself in Thai life and culture.
Internship visas are typically issued for an initial stay of 90 days and may be extended up to one year based on the program length. Extensions and updates are filed with the local Immigration Office, along with the required supporting documents. SiamConsult prepares and monitors these applications to keep your stay legal and uninterrupted.
Completing your internship through SiamConsult means clear timelines, bilingual support, and direct coordination with Thai authorities. Whether you are an individual student or a university representative arranging multiple interns, we ensure accuracy and transparency from start to finish.
The Internship Visa is a legal permit that allows foreign students, graduates, and trainees to stay in Thailand while gaining professional experience with a registered Thai company, resort, or organization. It provides a safe and structured way to combine learning, cultural exchange, and real-world training.
Step 1 – Consultation & Eligibility Check
We begin by reviewing your background, internship purpose, and host organization.
SiamConsult confirms which visa category applies — the Non-Immigrant ED Visa (for university-linked programs) or the Non-Immigrant B Visa (for professional training).
You’ll receive a clear checklist, estimated timeline, and explanation of every step ahead.
Step 2 – Internship Agreement & Host Company Documents
Your Thai host company or resort provides an official invitation letter and internship agreement.
SiamConsult coordinates directly with them to prepare supporting company documents, such as their DBD certificate, tax registration (PP20), and business license, ensuring full compliance with Thai Immigration standards.
Step 3 – University or Ministry Endorsement
If your internship is academic, SiamConsult arranges endorsement through the Ministry of Education (MOE).
For company-based training programs, endorsement is provided by the Ministry of Labor (MOL).
We prepare and submit all necessary forms on your behalf, ensuring that the relevant authority recognizes your internship.
Step 4 – Visa Application Submission
Once approval is granted, SiamConsult compiles your complete visa file, including all endorsements, photos, and identification pages.
You can then apply for your visa at a Thai Embassy or Consulate abroad, or, if eligible, at your local immigration office within Thailand.
We review every page before submission and stay in contact with the authorities until your visa is approved.
Step 5 – Travel & Arrival in Thailand
After receiving your visa, SiamConsult helps you plan your arrival and advises on the next steps — including 90-day reporting, address registration, and documentation for your internship provider.
Our Krabi-based office remains available throughout your stay for ongoing support or emergency assistance.
Step 6 – Internship Commencement & Work Authorization (if required)
For internships involving practical duties or hands-on participation (such as hospitality, education, or animal care), a temporary work authorization may be required.
SiamConsult prepares the supporting documentation and liaises with the Ministry of Labor to obtain the necessary legal permissions for your activities.
Step 7 – Monitoring & Extension
During your internship, we assist you in staying compliant with Thai Immigration requirements.
If your internship lasts longer than 90 days, SiamConsult arranges your visa extension, submitting all necessary forms and scheduling your appointment at the local Immigration Office.
This keeps your stay legal, comfortable, and uninterrupted.
Step 8 – Completion & Next Steps
Upon completing your internship, we assist with visa closure, possible conversion to another visa type (such as a Business or Education Visa), or a short-term extension to explore Thailand further.
We also provide official certification letters confirming your successful internship period, which is useful for future study or employment opportunities.
