Can I get an investor visa for purchasing a condo over 10 million baht in Thailand?

Andrew ********

You are talking about the VIP visa it's a 25k fee ( USD ) with verified income it's really pointless get a DTV over the elite. They do not accept investments stocks bonds as proof of income or requirement

Why are DTV border bounces more expensive than normal visa runs in Thailand?

Andrew ********

my point is with a DTV you don't need that assurance you already have assured entry at any port you enter.

The boarder runs are people using visa exempt status to keep coming back in

@Yasmin **********

i have not seen anything where they promote one visa over the other. Now they may advertise it to get the word out cause it's a newer visa thst has great benifits but no where near the cost of an ED visa .. only thing is you have to show proof of funds in an account not investments either
