What customers say about working with us
After reaching out to about four local visa agencies in Thailand, Thai Kru stood out as the most legitimate and honest... They kept in touch and explained everything.
From start to finish I received full support. They were very well informed and reassured me and reviewed documents as many times as needed.
I have used their service twice. Thai Kru made my visa process so much easier, it was worth every cent. In fact on the first trip the advice they gave me saved me money.

What we check in your file
- Which country your trip belongs to, from your itinerary.
- Your day count under the 90/180 rule, and your last legal day.
- Your job, business or studies shown with the right certificate; if you have no standard certificate, we write an explanation of your work and income with you.
- Bank statements that fit the trip you describe.
- Insurance, bookings and leave dates that line up.
What if I'm…
…visiting several countries?
We count the nights per country and apply to the right embassy. One visa then covers the whole trip.
…visiting family in Europe?
Your host sends an invitation and their status documents; we tell them exactly what to send.
…applying after a Schengen refusal?
We read the refusal letter, find what was not established last time, and build the new file around it. If you have several refusals, we look for the document problem behind them first.
…a foreigner living in Thailand?
You can apply from Thailand if you live here legally, with a Thai visa or extension that covers your trip. Whether you need a Schengen visa at all follows your passport.
Why schengen visa applications get refused, and how we prevent it
- Applying to the wrong embassy. We work it out from your nights.
- Funds that look too low or arrived just before applying. We read your statements the way an officer will.
- Weak ties to Thailand. We add your leave letter, work or business evidence and other commitments.
- Documents that do not agree. We check flights, bookings, leave letter, itinerary and statements against each other.
- Insurance that does not meet the standard. We arrange cover that does.
If you are refused
Every application we prepare is backed by the Thai Kru guarantee. Ask us for the details. We also go through the refusal with you and tell you plainly what we would change.
