Can I immigrate when I buy a house in Thailand?

There is no doubt that in Thailand, it is impossible to obtain immigration qualification by buying a house.

Foreigners who buy a house in Bangkok can apply for a household registration book (yellow book), but this only means that the property owner can live in Thailand.

It is relatively easy to apply for long-term visas in Thailand, such as work visas, student visas, visiting relatives visas, pension visas, etc ... You can also apply for a 20-year long-term visa (VIP elite visa) to buy some properties. It is said that the Immigration Bureau reports once every five years, which is very powerful.

If you work and live in Thailand for a long time, you can apply for a green card, and very few people will get immigrants, but it is quite difficult.

According to BOI regulations, foreigners who invest in Thailand and meet the prescribed conditions can apply for a permanent residence permit. Applicants can apply to the Investment Promotion Committee of Thailand or the Immigration Bureau.

Foreigners who have invested not less than 6,543,800,000 baht in Thailand can obtain permanent residency after approval and negotiation by the Ministry of the Interior. During the application period, the applicant may be allowed to stay in Thailand temporarily until the relevant Thai authorities make a decision on his application. Thailand grants permanent residency to foreign investors, experts and technicians, mainly to promote foreign investment and the development of science and technology in Thailand.
