Thai Business Visas Continue to Be Prioritized

Transcript of the above video:

As the title of this video suggests, are discussing Business Visas. It appears that Thai Business Visas continue to be high on the priority list of policy officials here in the Kingdom with respect to granting entry to foreign nationals who either have or are seeking Business Visas. 

In a recent article from the Nation, that is nationthailand.com, the article is titled: Thailand to Ease Travel Restrictions for Foreign Business People. Quoting directly: "The Government is considering how to further ease travel restrictions for people who want to enter Thailand for business or investment purposes. Easing entry for business persons would help lift the economy which is sagging under the impact from COVID-19 Government Spokesman Anucha Burapachaisri said on Monday." There is more to that article, again it is titled: Thailand to Ease Travel Restrictions for Foreign Business People. That is in the Nation, nationthailand.com. I urge those who are watching this video to go check out that article and gain some further insight. 

The thing I was taking out of that article to sort of provide some further analysis, it appears to me and we have seen this in a lot of ways, APEC cards are being prioritized; they are talking about Business Visas being issued notwithstanding lack of work authorization for those who can show substantial funds in Thai bank accounts etc.. It appears that Thailand is very much trying to spur foreign investment; trying to spur foreign business interests; keep the economic game, their eye on the ball with respect to that, and those who are seeking Business Visas to Thailand may be and I believe will be prioritized compared to other Visa categories being sought for the Kingdom of Thailand.
