Thailand Privilege Visa & Membership

Current published membership tiers

On smaller screens, scroll the table sideways to see all columns.

These are the official operator’s published tiers reviewed on 13 November 2026. Promotions, availability, points and family options can change. Confirm the written offer before paying; Bronze is described as a limited offer and Reserve is invitation-only.

Membership is not an uninterrupted stay

The operator’s immigration FAQ describes a Privilege Entry visa admission of one year per entry, with extension procedures for a continuing stay. A five-, ten- or twenty-year membership should not be read as a single immigration stamp covering that entire period.

Check the visa validity, passport validity and latest admission stamp, and ask the operator how future visa issuance or renewal is handled for the selected package. Keep the membership terms together with the actual immigration documents.

Work, study and tax limitations

The operator’s published guidance states that this tourist-based membership does not authorise employment or provide a work-permit route under that status. If the plan involves a Thai job, operational business management or formal study, assess the appropriate alternative before buying membership.

Membership does not create a general Thai tax exemption. Residence-day counts, the source of income and other tax rules remain separate questions. A person choosing this route for a long stay should maintain travel and income records and obtain an individual tax assessment where necessary.

Understand the application and payment sequence

1. Review the current package, eligibility and immigration-history requirements directly with the official operator.
2. Prepare the requested identity and application documents, including any supplementary records.
3. Complete the official eligibility/background review and wait for the prescribed payment instruction.
4. Read the membership contract, refund provisions and activation conditions before transferring funds.
5. Coordinate visa issuance or affixing according to the operator’s instructions.
6. Check the actual permission granted at entry and diary extensions, reporting and passport renewal.

Pay only through verified instructions. Pimaccounting does not claim to be a government authority or an authorised Thailand Privilege sales representative on this page. We can discuss how the option compares with your business, family and accounting needs; membership terms and eligibility are confirmed with the operator.

Compare the total family cost

Do not assume that a principal membership automatically covers a spouse or child. Ask for the exact family terms, each person’s visa entitlement, age conditions, renewal arrangements and any additional membership fee. Compare the resulting total with qualifying family routes under other programmes.

A family member intending to work may need a different status. Plan school enrolment separately for children and consider whether their immigration basis should follow education or family circumstances rather than the principal applicant’s membership preference.

When to compare other routes

• If eligible through overseas income, assets or expertise, review LTR before treating a paid membership as the only long-stay option.
• If aged 50 or over and retiring, compare Non-O retirement, O-A and O-X.
• If your purpose is qualifying overseas remote work, compare DTV.
• If your purpose is Thai employment, assess Non-B and work permission.

Compare the full term, ongoing obligations and actual rights, not just the headline number of years. Government applications, required bank deposits and membership fees are different kinds of cost and should not be compared as if they were interchangeable purchases.

Arrival and ongoing administration

Follow the official TDAC requirements for each applicable arrival. Keep accommodation and address-reporting records, and confirm which assistance the operator provides and which actions remain your responsibility. Concierge support does not remove an immigration obligation.

Before renewing a passport, changing status or leaving for a long period, check how the membership and visa records will be updated. Preserve official receipts and correspondence so that later transactions can be matched to the correct member and passport.
