What this document is
This is the Board of Investment (BOI) application for qualification endorsement in the "High-Skilled Professional" category of the Long-Term Resident (LTR) visa programme. BOI checks whether the applicant meets the category criteria; only after the endorsement can the LTR visa itself be obtained.
The form is in English and has several parts: A — personal information, B — expertise, C — the employer’s business, D — personal income (private employers only), F — means of medical expense, plus the work permit section (company, job, reference person, travel into Thailand).
Who files it
A foreign specialist employed by a company, higher education or research institution, or a government agency in Thailand in a targeted industry. The form branches by employer type: for a private company or private institution Parts D, F and the work permit section are completed; for a government or state-owned agency — Part F and the work permit section.
Conditions printed on the form
- private employer: personal income of at least 80,000 USD a year over the past 2 years, or at least 40,000 USD a year together with a master’s degree or higher in science and technology, high skills relevant to the job, or retirement with expertise in science and technology;
- medical cover (one of three): health insurance of more than 50,000 USD with at least 10 months remaining, social security benefits, or a deposit of at least 100,000 USD held for at least 12 months;
