1FinickyOne Posted February 24, 2018 Share Posted February 24, 2018 If I remember correctly, I have seen mention of an investment visa if you purchase something over 10mm baht... is there such a thing and are there advantages over a regular retirement visa?

Phuket Man Posted February 24, 2018 Share Posted February 24, 2018 (edited) If you gave 10M Baht to spare I suppose it is an option. Edited February 24, 2018 by Phuket Man Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phuket Man Posted February 24, 2018 Share Posted February 24, 2018 2.5 In the case of an investment: Permission will be granted for a period of not more than 1 year at a time. In case of an investment of not less than 10 million baht. (1) The alien has obtained a temporary visa (NON-IM) (2) Proof of money transfer to Thailand of not less than 10 million baht. (3) Proof of investment to purchase or rent for a period not less than 3 years of unit in a condominium from an agency or government agency concerned at a price of not less than 10 million baht. (4) Proof of investment in the form of a fixed deposit of not less than 10 million baht with a bank registered in Thailand with Thai shareholders comprising more than 50% of its shareholders. (5) Proof of investment to purchase government or state enterprise bonds with a value of not less than 10 million baht or (6) Proof of combined investments as set out in clauses (3),(4) Or (5) having a total value of not less than 10 million baht.

Just sounds like more paperwork... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

None other than you can get a work permit and work if you wanted to. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elviajero Posted February 24, 2018 Share Posted February 24, 2018 I think it's not a bad option if you are buying property, but otherwise I think applying based on retirement is a better way to go. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though this may not apply in your case - in addition to what others said previously, it can be used by someone under 50 years of age, who do not qualify for a retirement-visa. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
