Visa LTR de Tailandia para nómadas digitales (2026)

Frequently asked

Who qualifies for Thailand’s LTR visa?

Four main categories: Wealthy Global Citizens (high net worth + assets), Wealthy Pensioners (passive income), Work-from-Thailand Professionals (employed remote workers with strong companies and income), and Highly Skilled Professionals working in targeted Thai industries.

What income or assets do I need for the Work-from-Thailand category?

Typically $80,000/year personal income over the last 2 years (or $40k-80k with a master’s degree or relevant IP/experience), employer must be a public company or a profitable private one. Always check current thresholds — they have moved.

What is the 17% flat tax option?

Highly Skilled Professional category holders can elect into a 17% flat personal income tax on Thai-source income. Other categories may also access favourable treatment on foreign-source income depending on the latest rules. It is a major draw for senior earners.

How long is the LTR valid and how does it work?

10 years, issued as 5+5 with a renewal check. Includes work permit, fast-track at airports, and family inclusion (spouse + up to 4 children). Multiple-entry as standard — you can come and go without limits.

How does LTR compare to other Thai long-stay options?

LTR is for higher earners committed to Thailand for years. Education Visa, retirement (50+), and other routes still serve nomads with different profiles. Most LTR holders also keep ties elsewhere; it gives the best of long-stay status with low tax friction.
