How much does the 20-year elite visa for Thailand cost?

The Thailand Elite Visa, officially offered through the Thailand Privilege Membership Program, is a long-term, multiple-entry visa for individuals seeking extended stays in Thailand with exclusive privileges. Represented and administered by Siam Legal – Thailand's leading GSSA for Thailand Elite Visa services – the program comprises five membership tiers: Bronze, Gold, Platinum, Diamond, and Reserve. Each tier offers visa validity of five to twenty years, along with a variety of premium benefits such as airport assistance, government concierge services, and access to exclusive leisure activities.

The exclusive Reserve membership is available by invitation only and limited to 100 new members per year. The associated Thai Elite Visa is renewable indefinitely, allowing for lifetime residency in the Kingdom. Membership includes a 20-year residency permit in Thailand, access to the exclusive Reserve Club, and numerous complimentary, personalized luxury goods, services, and experiences for an exceptional life in Thailand.

Cost of Thailand Privilege Reserve membership

Thailand Privilege Reserve membership costs 5 million THB. There are no annual fees, and family members can be added at the time of application for 2 million THB each. If you already hold a lower-tier membership and receive an invitation to the Reserve tier, you will need to pay a fixed fee of 100,000 THB plus the price difference between the two memberships for the upgrade.

Airport and entry privileges

Reserve membership offers unlimited access to fast-track immigration, select airport lounges, and assistance with baggage handling and visa application. During your stay, our Elite Personal Liaisons (EPLs) will assist you with administrative tasks such as opening a bank account or handling your check-ins every 90 days. As a multiple-entry visa holder, you can also leave and re-enter Thailand without needing a new entry permit.

Benefits for residents

During your stay in Thailand, you will enjoy many privileges that are also available to residents. You can open bank and credit card accounts, apply for a driver's license, and take out health insurance.

Lifestyle benefits

As a Privilege Reserve member, you'll enjoy exclusive benefits such as a discount on a scenic river cruise for your birthday and seasonal gifts. You can experience thrilling test drives in supercars and enjoy a complimentary night at an Anantara Vacation Club.

Membership also includes one free domestic flight per year, an Accor Plus hotel membership including accommodation, and use of the hotel's fitness facilities. The Reserve membership prioritizes your well-being and therefore offers one year of accident insurance and an annual health check.

For greater convenience in everyday life, membership offers access to coworking spaces and select parking options. You also have access to wealth management services to help you confidently manage your finances. To further personalize your experience, you'll receive 120 Thailand Privilege Points annually, which you can redeem for a selection of bonus benefits tailored to your individual preferences.

How to apply

All applicants for reserve membership require an invitation. Upon receiving the invitation, you can apply for membership both within Thailand and from abroad. You will need a valid passport, a recent passport photo, the completed application form for Thailand Privilege Reserve Membership, and a processing fee of 50,000 THB (which will be credited towards membership dues).

The best way to apply for a Thailand Elite Visa is with the assistance of a General Sales and Services Agent (GSSA). GSSAs are government-sponsored visa consultancies and law firms that offer free professional assistance to all applicants for the Thailand Privilege program.
