Thailand BOI guide

BOI skilled workers and visas

Promoted projects use a dedicated channel for skilled positions rather than the standard employment quota.

Positions must be justified

Promoted companies apply for approved positions based on the project's technical needs. Approval is per position and per person, and renewals depend on the project remaining compliant.

The practical experience

The One Stop Service Center consolidates visa and work permit processing for promoted companies, which materially reduces friction compared with the standard route. It does not remove immigration reporting duties or make approval automatic.

BOI eligibility depends on the specific activity, project and current regulations. This page provides general information and is not official BOI advice.

More on Thailand BOI

What is BOI Thailand?

The BOI is Thailand's investment promotion agency. Promotion is granted per project and can unlock tax and non-tax privileges.

Who can apply for BOI?

Applications are made by companies, or by promoters intending to incorporate, for activities on the promoted list.

BOI Thailand for foreigners

For foreign investors, the non-tax privileges around ownership, land and staff often matter more than tax holidays.

BOI Thailand for Indian companies

Indian applicants most often fit manufacturing, food processing, software and regional service activities.

Discuss your project

We are not a BOI agent. We help you assess whether the route is realistic, then connect you with qualified Thai professionals who can advise and file.

Tell us what you're looking for

Share a few details and we will come back with a considered view on whether we can help, and what the next step looks like.

Or WhatsApp us

We use your details only to respond to your enquiry. We identify, research and facilitate potential business connections — we do not guarantee investment returns, government approval, licences or commercial outcomes.

Build the business case first

Model the project without incentives, then treat promotion as upside. We can help you pressure-test both.
