Thailand Residency Planning
Establishing a long-term presence in Thailand requires more than selecting a visa. The appropriate pathway should reflect the client’s intended length of stay, family circumstances, employment status, investment plans, property ownership, tax position, and wider international arrangements.
L’Heritage helps private clients and families evaluate Thailand residency as part of a structured second-base, relocation, retirement, investment, or regional business strategy.
Our approach connects immigration planning with property, investment, banking, company structuring, family logistics, and coordination with the client’s existing advisers. This reflects L’Heritage’s role as a Thailand-rooted strategic execution partner for internationally positioned families.
