Thailand Privilege is the current program branding (Thailand Privilege Card). “Thailand Elite Visa” is the older, widely used name. Gold is one of the current membership tiers under Thailand Privilege.

Gold costs THB 900,000 for a 5-year membership.

Gold includes 20 Privilege Points per year.

Points can be redeemed for selected privileges offered by the program across categories such as travel, leisure, health & well-being, and more. The catalogue and redemption values can change, so it’s best to confirm what’s currently available.

Thailand Privilege is known for airport assistance services often described as fast track/premium lane support. Booking procedures apply, and advance notice is typically required.

Thailand Privilege guidance commonly recommends requesting airport services at least five working days in advance to help ensure proper scheduling.

Thailand Privilege explains that the Privilege Entry (PE) visa/sticker can allow up to 1 year per entry. Always check the stamp you receive when you enter Thailand.

In most cases, yes—90-day reporting rules still apply where applicable. Thailand Privilege provides guidance and, depending on conditions, may offer support options in certain locations or via redemption.

Thailand Privilege membership is primarily a long-stay membership/visa pathway and is not the same as a Thai work permit. If you plan to work, speak with us about compliant options.

Gold is generally structured as an individual membership. If you want family/supplementary options, higher tiers may be more suitable. We can advise based on your family structure.

In many cases, applications can be handled remotely. We’ll confirm the best approach for your situation during consultation.

You’ll typically need to update your membership/visa records to your new passport. We can guide you through the steps when it’s time to renew your passport.

• You need a package that includes supplementary family members (Gold is generally positioned as an individual membership; families often consider higher tiers)
• You specifically need a work permit solution (separate rules apply)
• You want permanent residency immediately (different pathways apply)

If you’re unsure which program fits, our team at Thai Elite Express can advise on Gold vs other Thailand Privilege tiers—or whether you may qualify for Thailand’s LTR Visa instead.

Benefits can be grouped into three practical areas: airport services, Privilege Points redemptions, and member support.

1) Airport services (arrival/departure support)

Thailand Privilege is known for its airport services, often described as fast-track / premium lane support with staff assistance (Elite Personal Assistants). These services are available at major airports and are subject to program procedures and reservations.

Good to know: Thailand Privilege publishes guidance that members should request airport services in advance (often recommended at least five working days before the flight). This helps ensure service availability and correct scheduling.

2) Privilege Points (how Gold points work)

Gold includes 20 Privilege Points per year. You can redeem points for selected privileges offered by Thailand Privilege (the catalogue and redemption rules may change).

In general, points may be used across lifestyle categories such as:

• Stay (e.g., certain immigration-related services, depending on catalogue)
• Travel
• Leisure
• Health & well-being
• Wealth-related privileges (availability varies by catalogue and rules)

Important: Always check the current redemption catalogue and conditions before planning around a specific perk. We can help you understand what’s currently available before you apply.

3) Member support and coordination

Thailand Privilege membership includes access to support channels for coordinating services (for example, airport service bookings and certain administrative support offerings). Availability can depend on membership type, location, and current program rules.

Requirements can change, but a practical starter checklist includes:

• Passport biodata page (clear scan)
• Recent photo (passport-style)
• Completed application forms (we provide guidance)
• Any additional documents requested during screening

We’ll confirm the exact document list during your consultation based on your nationality and circumstances.

Gold is designed for individuals who want:

• A 5-year option
• A moderate annual points allocation
• Core airport assistance and membership privileges

You may want to consider a higher tier if you need:

• More annual Privilege Points
• Supplementary (family) membership options
• Additional premium services (tier-dependent)

If you share your situation (solo vs family, travel frequency, desired benefits), we can recommend the most suitable tier.

1. Fee – THB 900,000 membership fee for Gold.
2. Validity – 5 years.
3. What the fee covers (in plain terms) – Your Gold payment is for membership in the Thailand Privilege program at the Gold tier. Some services are included by default; others are redeemed using Privilege Points or may require separate fees depending on the service and current rules.

Tip: If you’re comparing tiers, don’t compare only the years—also compare annual points and whether you need family options.

Visa basics: how your stay typically works with Thailand Privilege

A common point of confusion is the difference between membership and the entry permission you receive in your passport.

Thailand Privilege explains that members may receive a Privilege Entry (PE) visa/sticker, and that PE allows up to 1 year per entry (always confirm the stamp you receive at immigration on arrival).

You still need to follow Thai immigration compliance rules, including 90-day reporting where applicable. Thailand Privilege publishes guidance and service options for 90-day reporting support in certain areas and under certain conditions.

Eligibility is assessed by Thailand Privilege and relevant authorities. While exact checks may vary, you should be prepared for standard screening.

Typical expectations include:

• A valid passport
• Ability to pass background/eligibility screening
• Clean immigration history helps (case-by-case)

If you have prior overstays or complex history, we recommend discussing it with us before submitting.
