A long-term resident category for qualifying high-asset individuals.
Long-stay or temporary permissionLTR is not permanent residence or automatic citizenship. Work-from-Thailand permission does not authorise a job with a Thai employer. Health cover normally requires USD 50,000, qualifying social security or the permitted USD 100,000 deposit alternative.
- Benefits
- A conditional ten-year long-term resident framework, issued with a five-year qualification review, and annual immigration reporting instead of the usual 90-day reporting.
- Eligibility
- Personal assets of at least USD 1 million and at least USD 500,000 in qualifying Thai investment. The former separate annual-income threshold was removed in the 2025 changes.
- Requirements
- Prove asset ownership, qualifying Thai investment and the required health cover or alternative financial security, alongside identity and background records.

Long-stay or temporary permission
Maintain the requirements of this Thai visa category. Its validity is not a promise of permanent residence or citizenship. Any later settlement case needs a separate legal basis, qualifying residence record and individual approval.
