Is there an age limit for the Digital Nomad Visa (DTV) in Thailand for my parents who are 48 and 50?
Hi. Asking for my parents: they are 48 and 50, is there an age limit for DTV? They have their own company in Europe and they can work from anywhere at this point. But I’m not sure if they can get the DTV or have to apply for retirement visa.
Answer summary
There is no age limit for applying for the Digital Nomad Visa (DTV) in Thailand. Based on the comments, individuals over 50 can still qualify, especially if they have a steady income from their own company. The Retirement Visa could also be a simpler option to consider, particularly since one of the parents is over 50. Gathering information from the Thai Embassy and verifying the specific visa requirements is recommended.

I got the DTV. But it was a stretch. Retirement visa would have been more than I could manage.

No age limit on a DTV. Especially if they will continue to work.
I’’m 50, Director of my U.K. business and have both my children under 20 as my dependants.

Since 1 spouse is over 50
Retirement visa seems better.
Then can add the younger spouse

Anonymous participant 127 its not better if they want to continue to work. Dtv also does not require your money to be in a Thai bank. Personally I think its far superior.
