Citizenship

Featured Replies

Hello to all, I have a simple question to ask you...let's say I would think about getting citizenship and permanent residence in the future, so I want to know if that required 3 uninterrupted years with the same visa, means that I can't get out of the country in that 3 years, or if I have a re-entry permit I can do it anyway...thanks a lot.

The minimum requirement for PR is that you have spent 3 years in Thailand on a 1-year visa extension. If you're working, they'll expect you to have paid taxes for those 3 years. Going in and out of the country for short trips on a re-entry visa is no problem, but it might be a problem if you were spending several months overseas each year and not paying taxes.

You will be on contiguous annual extensions and, with a re-entry permit, are free to travel, ie to leave and re-enter the country without losing your extension status.

If you haven’t done so yet, read this most interesting topic on gaining Permanent Residence.

The single biggest problem in communication is the illusion that it has taken place
