The Thai cabinet has approved significant changes to the 10 year Long-Term Resident (LTR) visa program, initially launched in September 2022. These changes are designed to make it easier to qualify for each of the four LTR visa categories. The updates include allowing an unlimited number of dependents, reduced revenue requirements for remote workers, expanded fields for highly skilled professionals, and the removal of the income requirement for wealthy global citizens. Stay tuned for more updates on these beneficial adjustments.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
