"The team at Baan smile were so professional the customer service was excellent. I first called to get help with extending my tourist visa. They were so honest on the phone they advised me if I wanted I could do extension myself and would only be 1,900 baht. I appreciated the honesty and advised that I prefer a company that has experience and would relieve my headache trying to figure on my own. The team took over and completed all necessary paperwork and got all my information from me that was needed. They scheduled a day to meet at Immigration and I was met by them. They walked me through process and it was so simple. I am happy to have met the team at BAAN SMILE. I will be calling them for all my needs and services in Thailand."

"I had watched their YouTube videos and contacted them with a question about visa services. They were a great help in getting my Special Tourist Visa. Most likely I wouldn't have gotten the approvals in time, and I would have had to reschedule my dates, flights, arrival etc. and at great additional expense had I done it myself. I would definitely recommend them for this service."
