"I contacted this company thinking they could help me arrange a border run, but that's not part of their business. Still, they talked to me for ten minutes and kindly answered all of my questions. I was very impressed by their customer service even though I wasn't even a customer."

"I could not be any happier with Numfhon and the team at Thai Kru. Once I meet with them I knew they were the right choice. They told me the steps needed to be done to get my retirement visa, told me the price, no hidden fees. They helped me get everything I needed, they did all the paperwork, took me everywhere I needed to go, set up apps on my phone. Got my Visa in a couple of days, could not have been easier, money well spent. I consider Numfhon and the team my two good friends."
