RedBullHorn Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 I've got a friend who want to give up his Singapore citizenship, his plan is to migrate to Thailand and wish to obtain Thai citizenship. What should he do to obtain Thai citizenship using the fast route or any other options? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simon43 Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 There are no fast routes to citizenship in Thailand. Start with PR (3 years+ but more likely 6 years + if you include waiting on a decision on your application). Once your have PR, then wait again...

thaiphoon Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 For more information on PR, which as said is the starting point to citizenship, have a read of the pinned topic Camerata's Guide to the PR Process. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
astral Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 When you get to that stage, I do not think there is any requirement to give up your old citizendship in order to become Thai. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mario2008 Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 Not from the Thai side, but Singapore doesn't allow dual citizenship and you will lose it when you acquire another nationality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedBullHorn Posted February 21, 2010 Author Share Posted February 21, 2010 Especially if you've a lot of money lock up in Singapore's Central Provisional Fund (CPF) before retirement age, and lots of love for LOS, believe me...you'd consider getting out...LOLX!!! The CPF money are good for investment and motive for getting out of S'pore hectic live style. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
