TLDR : Answer Summary

There is no upper age limit for obtaining a Digital Nomad Visa (DTV) in Thailand. Individuals in their 50s, 60s, and even 70s have successfully applied for this visa, demonstrating that it is suitable for any age group as long as the applicant meets the other eligibility criteria like remote work capability. While applicants must be at least 18 years old, there is no maximum age restriction. However, potential applicants may also consider alternative visa options, such as a retirement visa.

Take the basic DTV Qualification Test to see if you're eligible for the Destination Thailand Visa (DTV).

is 52 and I’m 43 …. Plus we are bringing our 12 year old with us. It’s a great visa for anyone with the ability to work or run their business from anywhere.

i know, but its connected with siam legal. I would atleast ask the embassy before application, since they do have requirements not mentioned in the official "flyer"

A dishonest compagny that is connected to a supposed compagny that offers legal advice, should make all alarms go off.
