A work permit for a company director — what should you know about the BOI One Stop Service channel?

The subject of this page is “A work permit for a company director”, so the answer below starts with what this case actually needs before setting out the general rules. The deciding factor is the receiving body's requirement, not only the format of the Thai-side document. The common failure in this group of cases is a translation that does not match the certification type required. The terms that frame this page are work · permit · company · director. When several certification layers are required, start with the slowest one. Documents with a short validity window should be produced as close to the filing date as possible. Before starting, plan the timeline so certification finishes before the real filing deadline, then ask in advance which category of certified translator the destination accepts, then make sure document numbers, issue dates and issuing-office names match across the set. After filing, follow up on the cycle the office states rather than waiting past the deadline. Attach a document index to the bundle so nothing is lost during review. Note who signed each certification and on what date for later reference. Businesses promoted by the Board of Investment (BOI) or located in IEAT industrial estates may use the One Stop Service Center for Visa and Work Permit and the BOI e-Expert / Single Window systems, a channel separate from filing at a provincial employment office. Work by foreign nationals in Thailand is governed by the Royal Decree on Managing the Work of Aliens B.E. 2560 (2017) as amended by Decree No. 2 B.E. 2561 (2018); work permits are issued by the Department of Employment, Ministry of Labour. ILC handles the document side only — certified translation, notarial signature certification and legalisation runs at the Department of Consular Affairs or an embassy. ILC is not the deciding authority and cannot guarantee an approval. Cost and lead time depend on page count, language pair and the certification steps the receiving authority requires, so every file is quoted before work starts.
