LTR, Work-from-Thailand Professional

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.

Submit the LTR, Work-from-Thailand Professional qualification evidence to the Board of Investment, obtain endorsement and complete visa issuance. Maintain the qualifying employment, investment or income basis and satisfy the five-year review.

Normally average personal income of USD 80,000 over the previous two years, or USD 40,000 to USD 80,000 with a qualifying master’s degree. The overseas employer must meet the listed-company or private-company criteria.

Employment and income records, employer accounts or listing evidence and health cover. Qualifying private employers normally require at least three years of operation and combined three-year revenue of USD 50 million.

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.

LTR 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.
