You can, but having worked for a certain amount of time in Thailand is still a requirement, afaik the salary requirement is lower though, and you can directly apply for citizenship instead of permanent residency.

Hanuman2547 Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 I've known a number of people that have PR and a number that have gone on to get Thai Citizenship. There are quite a few people that do this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correct me if I am wrong but this straight step to Thai nationality was only possible for a non-Thai wife married to a Thai man; to the best of my limited knowledge non-Thai men married to a Thai wife needed to be come a PR first. After five years of PR status an application for Thai nationality then could be filed ???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The nationality act was amended in 2008 to allow foreign husbands to apply for Thai nationality without having PR first. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
