FAQ — Thailand Privilege (Developer-Sponsored 5-Year Program)

This is a long-term residency benefit provided through selected developer projects. When a buyer purchases a qualifying condominium unit (minimum THB 3 million), the developer sponsors a 5-year long-term stay membership for the buyer. It allows the buyer to secure both property ownership and residency stability at the same time.
Instead of applying separately and paying a full membership fee directly, the developer absorbs the 5-year program fee as part of the property purchase package (subject to project terms and eligibility). The buyer focuses on acquiring the property, and the residency benefit is structured within the purchase arrangement.
The qualifying threshold is generally a condominium purchase of THB 3 million or above, depending on participating developer projects. Eligibility is tied specifically to selected developments.
No. It applies only to selected developer projects that participate in the 5-year residency program offering. Not all condominiums or resale units qualify.
