Is the Thailand Elite Visa a legitimate government scheme or a scam?
I have been doing some research into the Thailand Elite visa. Is this a legitimate government scheme and not a scam? Does anyone have first hand experience of the scheme?
Answer summary
The Thailand Elite Visa is a government-backed long-term visa program designed for expatriates and foreign nationals seeking to stay in Thailand for extended periods. While it is a legitimate scheme, potential applicants are encouraged to do thorough research and possibly consult with individuals who have firsthand experience to understand the benefits and any associated concerns.
