What visa options are available for UK passport holders looking to live and work remotely in Thailand?

Don *********

there are 5 categories - most of them ask for a yearly income rather than a large lump sum.

But to your point: if you had $1m in a bank account where else would you choose to live ? One of the many things I love about this place is if you’re here on a budget it’s awesome, and if you’ve got some cash to splash it’s even more awesome

ltr.boi.go.th - there is a category of Long Term Resident Visa (10 years) designed for you - and a huge benefit is it won’t tax you on foreign sourced income

What are the recommendations for safe deposit boxes and foreign currency deposit accounts for foreigners in Thailand?

Don *********

Sadly no - I am told Krungsri will bump you up to VIP level if you deposit THB5m and keep it there for a few days - that apparently allows you to open a safety box

Well done

I’ve been living in Phuket for the past 18 months, every day still feels like a holiday, and I’ve gone from an avid long haul traveller to someone who does everything possible to avoid leaving Phuket, let alone Thailand
