Real World

What We Stand For
Our Values
No Judgment
We understand how fast things can spiral — a night out, a wrong deal, a wrong partner. We don't judge how it happened. We fix it. Our job is to protect you, not evaluate your choices.
Absolute Discretion
Your case, your identity, and the details of your situation never leave our office. We have protected executives, diplomats, and public figures across the region. Confidentiality is not optional for us.
Clear Communication
Legal systems are complicated. Our communication is not. We explain exactly what is happening, what your options are, and what we are doing at every stage. No jargon. No confusion.
Results, Not Promises
We offer a money-back guarantee because we only take cases we believe in. Our track record speaks for itself — hundreds of foreign nationals helped, and we stand behind our work completely.

Common Questions
Visa FAQ
How long does a DTV visa take to process?
Typically 5–15 business days from a Thai embassy abroad. We prepare your complete application package to avoid any delays or rejections.
I overstayed my visa. What happens now?
Don't panic. Overstay fines are 500 THB per day up to 20,000 THB max. Longer overstays risk blacklisting. Call us immediately — we know exactly how to handle this.
What is the LTR visa income requirement?
Requirements vary by category — Wealthy Global Citizen requires USD 80K annual income or USD 500K assets. Remote workers need USD 40K+ annual income. We assess your eligibility for free.
Do I need to attend immigration appointments myself?
For most extensions and renewals — no. We go on your behalf with a Power of Attorney. For initial visa applications at embassies abroad, in-person attendance may be required.
How long does blacklist removal take?
It depends on the reason for blacklisting. Minor overstay blacklists can be resolved in weeks. More serious cases take longer. We've successfully cleared hundreds of blacklist cases.
How much does each service cost?
Every case is different. Pricing depends on your visa type, nationality, current immigration status, and the complexity of your situation. After a free consultation where we understand your needs, we provide a clear, fixed quote — no hidden fees, no surprises. Your first consultation is always free.
