Stay Longer Than Long Stay

Enjoy 20 years entry visa granted by the Royal Thai Government and other privileges exclusive for the Thailand Elite members

What's Thailand Elite

Thailand Elite originates from a singular goal to present the finest that the country has to offer into one unique package for our honored guests.

Whereas, the Cabinet passed a resolution on 29 July 2003, approving the Thailand Privilege Card Project as proposed by the Ministry of Tourism and Sports, whereby the Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT) was to implement the project in the form of limited company. "Thailand Privilege Card Company Limited" registered its incorporation under the Civil and Commercial Code on 29 August 2003, having the TAT as its sole shareholder and the registered capital of THB 1,000 million and having the status of state enterprise under the Budget Procedures Act B.E. 2502 (1959). Its objectives are to generate revenues from foreign visitors; and draw high-end visitors, businessmen, investors and the long stay groups, by offering rights and services to members. Such services are from both public and private sectors, e.g. Visa Privilege, Special Entry Visa, and Privilege Entry Visa

As part of the Tourism Authority of Thailand, this exclusive club has access to privileges that money alone cannot buy. Thailand Elite is the world's first country membership programme with benefit for immigration, leisure, business, and much more.

Membership privileges begin the second you reach Thailand. Every time you step off an international flight at Suvarnabhumi or Phuket Airports, a dedicated Elite Personal Assistant will greet you at the air pier, where an electro cart* whisks you through to the Exclusive Arrival Lounge, past to the throngs of passengers making their way in line for passport control counters and baggage claim. Here, your Fast Track immigration formalities will be processed speedily, without the need for you to pass through normal immigration channels.

Upon departure from Thailand, our limousine service will whisk you to the airport where our Elite Personal Assistant will greet and assist you with check-in for your flight. THAILAND ELITE has coordinated arrangements with passport control to expedite processing. As you wait for your flight to depart, relax in the Departure Lounge with several services available just for you.

LUXURY TRANSPORTATION

(*) The account details will be disclosed after application.
The member will be granted the 5 years multiple stay permit (visa). A multiple visa allows multiple entries to Thailand, which is also known as a reentry visa. Without a reentry visa, your stay permit (visa) will be expired once you travel out from Thailand. The Elite visa originally contains the right to travel in and out from Thailand without the limited number of times. The Elite visa is valid for one year but can be renewed four times, which means that it is a multiple-entry visa with the validity of five years.
After the expiry of the first 5 years visa, you may be granted another visa of the same nature, for example, three more times, if you are a 20 years member. As such the visa validity will be twenty years at maximum; (1 year + 1 year + 1 year + 1 year + 1 year) x 4 times = 20 years.
The Elite visa is a kind of tourist visa.
Yes, the Elite visa can be changed to another type of visa, provided that it is cancelled before such change. For example, when you (20 years member) have stayed in Thailand for two years with the Elite visa and wish to obtain a business visa and work permit to work in Thailand, you will need to cancel the Elite visa and then obtain the business visa. The validity of the Elite visa when you recover the status after five years assignment will be thirteen years (20 years – 2 years – 5 years = 13 years).
Yes, even if you change the Elite visa to any type of visa (e.g. business visa, student visa), you can still use all the service privileges. The only difference is the type of visa administrated by the Immigration Bureau.
No, if you wish to obtain the work permit, you will need to obtain a business visa after cancelling the Elite visa. However, you may recover the Elite visa after cancellation of the work permit. In such case, the period where you have held the business visa will be counted as part of the validity of the Elite visa.
Every foreigner who has stayed in Thailand, except for special cases, is required to visit the immigration office every ninety days to certify their stay by submitting the designated form. In case of the Elite members, this process will be done by our staff without your presence at the immigration office.
Please obtain a new passport. Any type of visa can be transferred to your new passport.
It is permitted to transfer the “Elite Ultimate Privilege” one time only (the other privileges are not transferrable). The transfer of the privilege is subject to payment of 20% of the market price of the membership.
While a long-stay (retirement) visa is totally different from the Elite visa in nature, one of the most noticeable differences is that a long-stay visa may be granted only for people at the age of fifty or more. Both types of visas require an annual renewal. While renewal of a long-stay visa is subject to strict consideration by the Immigration Bureau, the elite visa not. A long-stay visa is not entitled to the service privileges available to the Elite members. Although the effective date is still unknown, it is also expected the qualifications of a long-term visa are significantly tightened.
Yes. For the English service, it is available 24-7.
Yes, there is. Please inform the arrival date/time and the flight number to our call center. Our staff will meet you at the airport and guide you to the exclusive immigration counter. You will be able to go through the immigration process without queuing up.
Our free limousine service is provided by a German luxury car (within 50 km from the airport) or a Japanese high-brand car (within 80 km or 275 km from the airport) (as of 2016). The details of the airport limousine service varies depending on the type of membership.
Yes, the members can open a bank account in Bangkok Bank, one of the leading commercial banks in Thailand. Please contact our call center for arrangements. It should be noted that recently foreigners who do not hold a work permit are having difficulties in opening a bank account in Thailand.
The following are the places where discount privileges are available to the Elite members:
★Siam Paragon
★Emporium
★The EmQuartier
★All shops of The Mall
→10% discount
Power Mall and Home Fresh Mart shops: 5% discount
(*) Excluding alcohol, drugs and food malls/courts.

★All duty free shops of King Power
→20% discount (excluding alcohol, tobacco and jewelry)
→30% discount (Ramoon Ramayana Restaurant)
It is basically the full medical-check package of our partner hospitals.
According to the latest notification of the Immigration Bureau, from 2017 onwards the exclusive immigration counter cannot be used by non-Elite members, including the family of the Elite members.
The membership sales are not a primary objective. The Thai government is expecting the economic effects of consumption by the Elite members within Thailand.
