Hi

[MadMac]

You need to invest at least 10mTHB to be eligible for "benefits", google for "investment visa"

[thaihome]

Even 5 million baht is not really a lot. You don't expect to them to fall all over themselves for that do you? Come build a factory or petrol chemical plant for 5 or 10 billion baht you might get a reaction.

As said you will need to invest a minimum of 10 million in a new condominium or Government bonds to qualify for an extension of stay based on investment.

I cannot respond to your question about benefits unless you can explain what benefit you are expecting or looking for.

You might be better advised to talk to a qualified financial adviser about investment opportunities .

Investment in Thai is not done to make money. Its done to obtain investment visa. You need to spend 10million. Most commonly on new condo. If you then rent this out you make very little in comparison to what you could of made elsewhere. The benefit is visa so you can live here.

You will get nothing for just the investment.

You can get a non immigrant B visa after you set up the a company and have a work permit. To get a work permit requires a company with at least 2 million baht of registered capital and 4 Thai employees.

1.5 million, not much to set up a biz here, soon be gone.

[falang07]

as a foreigner, benefits are the last thing you can expect from Thailand considering the amount of money you plan to invest Instead expect lots of problems, having to employ 4 useless Thais just to get a work permit, etc. So all in all, no benefits at all and just many problems + no right to own more than 49% of the company either. If you expect benefits, better invest somewhere else.

Come to Thailand and see what kind of businesses your countrymen have here. Talk to them.

1.5 mill.bht.might get him a barrow and 3ft.of rental space,then there is the brown envelope.

then as for benefits you will get what we all get and got. deleted. my investment around two times 5.

If your willing to lose it go ahead and invest it.In any way you want.A business,A store,restaurant,massage parlor.Just remember

Only invest in Thailand what you can afford to lose.

This topic is wrong in the forum "Thai visas, residency and work permits" and I am moving it to "Jobs, economy, banking, business, investments"

Well at least you are coming to Thailand with the Thai mindset on business acumen,  has nothing to do with your competency, ability, market studies, customer relations, or location, everything is based upon luck

Removed an off-topic post and the reply to it.

If you are primarily looking for a long-stay visa, you could just get an Elite visa.  5 year option for 500k. 20 year for 1M.   I must caution that Elite visa is technically a tourist visa; you cannot get a work permit with it. 

 

You could do a couple of Back-To-Back SE Tourist visas to investigate on the ground and see if it is viable what you need to do.
