A Thai friend of mine took the board exam this year and he mentioned there were a few foreigners taking it which is promising. Also, I am not sure if you re doing residency already but Siriraj hospital have an international residency program up and running with a number of different specialities.

hi, i ve got some interesting updates on this. TMC changed their medical board exams into English, much to the chagrin of the current med students- i am not sure if this is due to the ASEAN agreement or whatever but their exams follow the lines of the USMLE step exams (maybe a bit more on the memorizing side - i am sure you know what I mean). The equivalent of CS will be done in Thai. After that you re free to apply for a residency program there in theory. Did hear Chula do run a residency program for foreigners but i am not sure if you get a state license out of it ??? and its a bit pricey from what i ve seen. Have you found any further information on this? Something I am interested in doing as well. Although others might say otherwise, there are an enormous amount of paid IMG doctors in Thailand, doing all sorts. Go for it
