Many contemplate this question: “Will Thailand Privilege actually keep their word about letting old Elite Easy Access visa holders upgrade

When it comes to looking for long-term visas, two that might catch your eye are likely to be the Thailand

Back on September 15, the old Thailand Elite Visa packages were discontinued to make way for the new Thailand Privilege

Two of the Thailand Privilege membership packages will allow you to include family members. The first is the 10-year PLATINUM Membership, in which the main applicant pays 1.5 million THB and any additional family members can shell out 1 million THB for it, letting them save 500,000 THB. All parties will also earn 35 privilege points.

Each Thailand Privilege membership nets you a set number of points per year. GOLD members earn 20 points per year, PLATINUM members get 35, and DIAMOND members are awarded 55. If you were invited for the RESERVE membership plan, you will receive 120 points a year, the highest amount out of all the packages.

Priced at 5 million THB, the Reserve membership is a special kind of membership for two reasons. The first is that it will allow you to stay beyond 20 years, meaning that when your 20 year visa expires you will be entitled to a 5 year visa after.
