These reforms create equitable conditions for legitimate foreign investment, encourage innovation, and eliminate legally grey nominee arrangements.
Under proposed reforms, legitimate 100% foreign ownership in designated sectors would eliminate this vulnerability whilst maintaining Thai control in protected industries.
The new DTV visa (Destination Thailand Visa), introduced in 2024, caters to digital nomads, allowing 180-day stays per entry, valid for up to 5 years.
The plan targets over 483,000 individuals, including stateless residents and long-term foreign workers, children born in Thailand to foreign parents, and expats who have lived in Thailand since before 2011.
In turn, with these reforms, Thailand gains skilled professionals, stable investment, and global perspectives.
