Thailand has introduced the Destination Thailand Visa (DTV), aimed at boosting tourism by attracting remote workers and digital nomads.
The DTV offers a five-year multiple-entry visa, allowing holders to stay in Thailand for up to 180 days each year, with an option to extend for an additional 180 days.
This visa is designed to provide an attractive alternative to standard tourist visas, eliminating many immigration and tax concerns for long-term visitors.
While the application process details are still pending, these basic eligibility requirements provide a preliminary guide for those interested in applying for the DTV.
Further information and updates on the application process are expected to be released in July
.
The Destination Thailand Visa costs 10,000 THB.
Applicants must be at least 20 years old, have sufficient funds to cover the visa fee, and demonstrate a minimum balance in their bank account.
The visa requires lower income requirements and fees compared to similar visas in Southeast Asia.
It permits legal remote work for international clients and allows holders to bring their spouse and children under 20. Additionally, there is no tax on income derived from foreign sources during the stay in Thailand.
