An application fee of THB 50,000 is payable upon submission of the application. Upon approval, this fee is deducted from the total amount of the chosen program option.

Procedure and time frame of the Thailand Privilege Residence Program
TPC offers an efficient application process. Approved applicants and dependents must inform TPC seven days in advance of their request to have the visa affixed upon their arrival at the airport under normal travel conditions or at the Immigration Bureau in Bangkok.
The application process begins with completing the initial due diligence checks after contacting Henley & Partners. Once completed, the client agreement can be signed, and the retainer can be paid. The application for Thai residence can then be prepared and submitted for processing upon payment of the THB 50,000 application fee. After approval, which typically takes two to three months, the successful applicant can make the contribution. The residence visa can be issued within two weeks after TPC confirms receipt of the full application fee. Finally, the client can receive the welcome letter and make an appointment for the visa affixation service.
