Expats must apply for a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thailawonline.com\/fr\/glossary\/retirement-visa\/\">visa de retraite<\/a>. You must be at least 50 years old, and you must satisfy one of the financial tests, not all of them: 800,000 THB held in a Thai bank account, or a monthly income of at least 65,000 THB, or a combination of deposit and annual income that reaches 800,000 THB. The income can come from a pension or another source. Immigration also requires the bank deposit to have been seasoned in the account for a set period before you apply, so move the money well ahead of your appointment. Expats could also need to have health insurance depending on their visa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\" id=\"800-000-baht-retirement-Thailand\"><img alt=\"800 baht\" class=\"wp-image-12817 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.thailawonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/800-000-baht.jpeg\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" style=\"object-fit:cover;width:400px;height:400px\"\/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"800 baht\" class=\"wp-image-12817 lazyload\" decoding=\"async\" height=\"768\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thailawonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/800-000-baht.jpeg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thailawonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/800-000-baht.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.thailawonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/800-000-baht-1000x750.jpeg 1000w, https:\/\/www.thailawonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/800-000-baht-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.thailawonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/800-000-baht-768x576.jpeg 768w\" style=\"object-fit:cover;width:400px;height:400px\" width=\"1024\"\/><\/noscript><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Le visa de retraite est valable un an et renouvelable annuellement.

If you cannot meet the deposit, the lawful routes are the monthly-income test, the combination method, or, if you are married to a Thai national, an extension based on marriage, which carries a lower threshold. Be careful with agents who offer to arrange an extension you do not qualify for. The deposit shown to Immigration is not yours and the supporting documents are false, so the risk sits with you rather than with the agent, and it runs to refusal, cancellation of your permission to stay, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thailawonline.com\/fr\/glossary\/blacklist\/\">mise sur liste noire<\/a> and prosecution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Sources :<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.immigration.go.th\/en\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Bureau de l&#039;immigration tha\u00eflandais<\/a><\/li>\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.immigration.go.th\/en\/?p=14714\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Pour une prolongation de visa : Choisissez #22<\/a><\/li>\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thailawonline.com\/fr\/extension-based-on-retirement-in-thailand\/\">ThaiLawOnline : Prolongation bas\u00e9e sur la retraite<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"2-property-ownership-for-retiring-in-thailand-as-an-expat\">2. <strong>Propri\u00e9t\u00e9 immobili\u00e8re<\/strong> pour prendre sa retraite en Tha\u00eflande en tant qu&#039;expatri\u00e9<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Another challenge for expats retiring in Thailand is property ownership. Foreigners are not allowed to own land in Thailand (with rare exceptions) under their own name. However, there are a few ways for expats to own property in Thailand, such as through a Thai <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thailawonline.com\/fr\/glossary\/company-limited\/\">soci\u00e9t\u00e9 \u00e0 responsabilit\u00e9 limit\u00e9e<\/a>, usufruit, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thailawonline.com\/fr\/glossary\/leasehold\/\">bail<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thailawonline.com\/fr\/glossary\/sap-ing-sith-thailand\/\">s\u00e8ve ing sith<\/a> and other rights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We do not normally advise expats to hold land through a Thai limited company. And often, they do not understand the nuances between the other rights on properties. It is so easy and cheap to rent a property in Thailand, do not take any risks that you could regret. You experience as retiring in Thailand as an expat should be enjoyable and not stressful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img alt=\"Maison en Tha\u00eflande pour la retraite\" class=\"wp-image-12818 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.thailawonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/house-in-thailand-for-retirement.jpeg\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" style=\"object-fit:cover;width:400px;height:400px\"\/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"Maison en Tha\u00eflande pour la retraite\" class=\"wp-image-12818 lazyload\" decoding=\"async\" height=\"768\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thailawonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/house-in-thailand-for-retirement.jpeg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thailawonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/house-in-thailand-for-retirement.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.thailawonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/house-in-thailand-for-retirement-1000x750.jpeg 1000w, https:\/\/www.thailawonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/house-in-thailand-for-retirement-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.thailawonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/house-in-thailand-for-retirement-768x576.jpeg 768w\" style=\"object-fit:cover;width:400px;height:400px\" width=\"1024\"\/><\/noscript><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If expats choose to own property through a leasehold agreement, they can lease the land for a period of up to 30 years. Section 540 of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thailawonline.com\/fr\/glossary\/thai-civil-and-commercial-code\/\">Code civil et commercial<\/a> caps a lease of immovable property at thirty years and allows a renewal of up to thirty more, but the renewal is a fresh agreement made once the first term has ended. A renewal promised in advance is not enforceable against someone who buys the land later, so plan on thirty years rather than on a chain of them. Usufruct can be for lifetime but it is not transmissible to heirs.

Contrairement \u00e0 certains pays, la Tha\u00eflande n&#039;applique pas de r\u00e9serve h\u00e9r\u00e9ditaire, ce qui signifie que vous \u00eates libre de l\u00e9guer vos biens \u00e0 qui vous voulez.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Si vous poss\u00e9dez des biens en Tha\u00eflande et souhaitez les l\u00e9guer \u00e0 votre conjoint, vos enfants ou d&#039;autres proches apr\u00e8s votre d\u00e9c\u00e8s, vous pouvez r\u00e9diger un testament conform\u00e9ment \u00e0 la loi tha\u00eflandaise. Il est recommand\u00e9 de faire r\u00e9diger votre testament par un cabinet d&#039;avocats qualifi\u00e9 afin d&#039;en garantir la validit\u00e9 et l&#039;applicabilit\u00e9.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you die without a will, your assets will be distributed according to Thai <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thailawonline.com\/fr\/glossary\/intestacy\/\">succession ab intestat<\/a> laws. This means that your things will be given to your spouse, children, and parents according to a specific formula in the Civil and Commercial Code.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Overall, Thai inheritance law is relatively simple. It\u2019s a good idea to talk to a Thai lawyer about your situation and make a plan for your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thailawonline.com\/fr\/glossary\/estate\/\">domaine<\/a> that fits your needs. You may want to add a living Will as protection or make <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thailawonline.com\/fr\/glossary\/gift\/\">cadeaux<\/a> \u201cin vivos\u201d for tax reasons.

However, there are a number of tax breaks and exemptions that expats may be eligible for. It is important to seek professional tax advice to ensure that you are paying the correct amount of tax. If you are in Thailand for at least 180 days in a tax year you are a Thai <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thailawonline.com\/fr\/glossary\/tax-resident\/\">r\u00e9sident fiscal<\/a>, and under section 41 of the Revenue Code your foreign employment, business or property income becomes assessable when you bring it into Thailand. Departmental Instruction Por. 161\/2566 removed the old escape of waiting for a later calendar year before remitting, and Por. 162\/2566 leaves income earned before 1 January 2024 under the previous rule. Money you never bring into Thailand is not taxed here. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thailawonline.com\/fr\/register-a-tax-id-number-in-thailand\/\">Here\u2019s how to register a Tax ID in Thailand.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"employment\">Emploi<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Expats who are working in Thailand are subject to Thai employment laws. However, there are several special rules and regulations. If you are on a retirement visa or extension, you are normally forbidden to work. Foreigners working in Thailand need a work permit, even if they don\u2019t have a salary. There are a few exceptions to this rule.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"business-laws\">Lois commerciales<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Les expatri\u00e9s souhaitant cr\u00e9er une entreprise en Tha\u00eflande doivent se conformer \u00e0 la l\u00e9gislation commerciale tha\u00eflandaise. Cela implique l&#039;enregistrement de l&#039;entreprise aupr\u00e8s des autorit\u00e9s tha\u00eflandaises, l&#039;obtention des licences et permis n\u00e9cessaires, ainsi que le paiement des imp\u00f4ts. Ces d\u00e9marches sont complexes et peuvent s&#039;av\u00e9rer difficiles dans un pays \u00e9tranger. Il est important de noter qu&#039;en principe, il est interdit de travailler en tant qu&#039;expatri\u00e9 retrait\u00e9 en Tha\u00eflande. Le gouvernement propose d\u00e9sormais le visa LTR aux retrait\u00e9s ais\u00e9s, leur offrant ainsi de nouvelles opportunit\u00e9s. Le nouveau visa DTV constitue une option int\u00e9ressante. Cependant, il ne s&#039;adresse pas uniquement aux expatri\u00e9s retrait\u00e9s en Tha\u00eflande, mais principalement aux nomades num\u00e9riques.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Prendre sa retraite en Tha\u00eflande peut \u00eatre une exp\u00e9rience formidable pour les expatri\u00e9s.
