Thailand offers two long stay routes, the Thailand Privilege membership card and the LTR visa for higher income or skilled applicants. Bangladeshi nationals can apply to both.
Information, not advice. Figures are indicative and current as of June 2026. Always confirm the present rules with the official program authority and a licensed professional before you act.
Bangladeshi passport holders can apply. The Privilege card has no income documentation requirement but gives no work rights.
The LTR visa targets wealthy global citizens, wealthy pensioners, professionals working remotely for foreign employers and highly skilled professionals, and asks for documented income or assets.
The Privilege card is a paid membership with several tiers and validity periods. The LTR visa, issued by the Board of Investment since 2022, is a ten year route that includes a work permit and certain tax features for those who qualify.
Privilege applications run through the Privilege card operator with background checks before the visa is issued. LTR applications are reviewed by the Board of Investment. Times vary with the route and the file.
Privilege membership fees range from 650,000 baht to 5,000,000 baht across the tiers, with longer validity at higher tiers. The lowest tier is a promotional offer, so confirm it remains available. The LTR visa asks for documented annual income from 80,000 US dollars or assets from 1,000,000 US dollars, depending on category. Confirm current figures with the official authority.
