Thai Bronze Visa formally known as Elite, pros and cons gooooo..and don't say the price

I apologize for asking a question that has likely been posted many times before but can somebody briefly explain why a one-year non O retirement visa with multiple entry is better than a five-year DTV? Are you more scrutinized and/or more closely observed if you get a DTV? I’m still not certain of this. Thank you.

Hi Guys

I am already holding DTV visa

But i am checking the news that LTR visa is getting easy.

Does anyone know if we get LTR visa straight for 10 years or its renewable after 5 years?

And for DTV there is no taxes.

But for do we have taxes?

Trying to find out if LTR is better then DTV.

So please suggest and give your inputs 🙏🙏

Oh dear me. There is a shock. You cannot work in Thailand, even remotely, on an Elite Visa. Pretty much redundant with DTV. Unless I am missing something.[members only]

For someone over 50 looking to retire in Thailand, what are the pro and cons of the new DTV and the Retirement Visa?

Hey guys, I was wondering what are the pros and cons of a dtv vs a marriage visa? We are planning to get married regardless so is it even worth a me going down the dtv route?

I have no doubt I will get a few but pls refrain from sarcastic comments 🤣🙏

It looks like DTV is worth considering as an alternative long-term visa that can be renewed every 180 days (or 6 months) and its requirements seem easier than retirement visa to meet - do you think so?

What’s difference between Non-B Visa and DTV visa? What’s advantage of Non-B visa compare to DTV? Thanks for your advices!

Hi. Does anyone have any recent experience of living in the Philippines and came make some positive/negative comparisons to living in the Thailand? How do costs and standards of living compare? I’m quite interested in areas outside of the main cities. I’m actually in Bohol, Philippines and considering a move to Thailand

I would rather hear from people who have actual experience rather than just thoughts or theories about it.

Thank you

Long-term Resident Visa (LTR)

Hey folks,

Is there anybody thinking about to stay in Thailand with the new LTR Visa?

In my eyes, the current requirements, makes the LTR Visa not more interesting than the previous Visa.

What are the big differences?

- For retirees there was the „Non Immigrant O Visa“.

- For wealthy people there was the „Elite Visa“.

- For investors and people who wanted to work in Thai industry, there was the “Smart Visa”.

- For the “Work From Thailand Professionals” who are really interested on a better and easier Visa there are still too much requirements.

So what's the big deal?

The only benefit I see is the extension interval from 90 days to 1 year.

But what are the other big benefits?!

I don't get it.

Maybe someone can explain it to me.
