What are the latest updates or changes regarding visas for purchasing property in Thailand?
Great Changes 🇹🇭🙏
Summary so far
The post discusses the rumored introduction of a new visa that would allow foreigners to obtain residency through property purchases in Thailand, specifically mentioning Sansiri properties. However, many commenters express skepticism, demanding official confirmation and suggesting the news may be linked to real estate marketing rather than genuine policy change. There are concerns about potential scams and the legitimacy of the information shared, with some stating that similar schemes have existed but with stricter conditions. Overall, the conversation reveals a lack of trust in the claims about the new visa and highlights the need for verified updates on Thai visa regulations.

I think if you buy a 10mbt or more condo you can get a one year renewable visa. Is this still true

This is why I have seen people asking about getting a visa for buying property here over the last couple of months. This is definitely just real estate companies trying to trick people.

Someone made a very slide way to sell condos - i wonder how many people clicked the link and entered a 1 year contract for a house for this lie lol

When you open the links, you will be taken to real estate websites. Something is fishy here.

it's just made up, has nothing to do with reality

There's an investment visa like that which has been around for about forever, which requires buying a 10m condo. There was another scheme - some developers would include Thailand Elite visa in their property "bundles", but it's no longer happening it seems.

Sansiri has nothing to do with it either - their own website doesn't mention it at all

Real or not, Sansiri has plenty to gain from it. And if you look carefully, it’s right there in the video logos. A kind reminder that the DTV was pushed by Sansiri’s CEO former PM. Surprise surprise 😏!
Dany ********
waste of money 🤣

Not heard a single thing about this. For Sansiri properties only, seems strange. Are Sansiri still owned by the guy who was pm aligned with Taksin ?

Very good point 👌 I was also wondering how he still has the power to do that. But they definitely marketed it. Let’s see. It’s definitely a way to sell their condos, and it’s even more targeted than the DTV.Thomas *******
😂😂😂😂 I visa for buying property but the only property you can buy is a condo😂😂😂😂

@Thomas ******
weird comment. You do realize most countries in the world that offer residence visas for properties have all sorts of restrictions on the options, right? Sometimes only with certain developers in certain zones (that suck)

Might be an option to open a bank account. Because its a 1 year visa.
Kami *******
Anonymous participant 929 yes you will be able to open a bank account with this visa
Greg ********
Anonymous participant 929 I would think they have to offer bank accounts as part of the property purchase but this is Thailand

Until I see someone post where's it's been published in the royal gazette, this is all hot air.

I could agree with “until it’s published in the Gazette, it’s all hot air.”Now, check who owns Sansiri Properties. And also check who pushed for the DTV. You might be surprised 😅

Anonymous participant 616 as I’ve had to claw and scratch for my DTV (recently obtained from London Embassy) I’d be very interested to know who pushed for it!
