TLDR : Answer Summary

The user inquires about obtaining Permanent Residency (PR) in Thailand after being in the country since 2016 with a business and work permit. They mention the application fee of 7,500 THB and a cost of approximately 190,000 THB but seek clarification on the required paperwork for the process. Comments suggest joining a Facebook group for more specific guidance and note potential ineligibility for PR if holding an elite visa.

You cannot and will not be eligible for PR if you have that “elite visa”

@Garrett **********

you pay the application FEE of 7600 baht to file for PR,

when it's approved (and you're single) you then pay 191,400K baht,

if you were married to a thai when you applied when it's approved you pay 95,700

I saw the 7600 baht application fee, I thought the 190k was citizenship application. I could be wrong though.

Citizenship is much cheaper as far as I know it’s around 7 or 8 thousand baht but I don’t write or speak enough Thai for the and at my age not sure I would manage learning enough before I die
