04 / IN THEIR WORDS

What clients say
when nobody's selling.

They told me upfront the Privilege Visa wasn't the best fit for me — and recommended LTR-P instead. Saved me thousands in tax. Honest from the first call.

05 / COMMON QUESTIONS

Things people ask
before committing.

01 How is Pattaya Visa Help different from a regular visa agent?
We're not a visa agent. We're an independent guidance service that connects you with vetted Pattaya specialists. We earn nothing from selling you a specific visa — we earn referral fees only when our clients become satisfied clients of our partners. That alignment is the whole point.
02 Is the consultation really free?
Yes. The 15-minute discovery call is free, no obligation. If you decide to engage one of our specialist partners, their fees are fully transparent and disclosed before you commit to anything.
03 Which visa is right for me as a retiree?
For most over-50s with 800,000 THB available, the Non-O retirement (in-country) path is the simplest and cheapest. For high-income retirees ($80k+/year) staying 180+ days/year, the LTR Wealthy Pensioner is objectively superior thanks to its tax exemption. We'll tell you exactly which one fits during the consultation.
04 Can I still do border runs to Cambodia in 2026?
Land-border visa-exempt entries are now capped at 2 per calendar year (effective November 2025). Air arrivals get up to 6. The "live in Thailand on rolling 30-day stamps" lifestyle is over. If you're long-stay in Pattaya, you need a proper long-stay visa — DTV, retirement, or Privilege depending on your situation.
05 How quickly can I get a Thai visa?
Depends entirely on the visa. Tourist visa: 3–7 days. DTV: 2–4 weeks. Non-O retirement (in-country): ~3 months including bank seasoning. LTR / Privilege: 6–16 weeks. We'll give you a realistic timeline for your specific case during the consultation.
06 What about the visa scams in Pattaya I keep hearing about?
They're real. The 2025 ED visa crackdown alone revoked nearly 10,000 student visas tied to fake schools. We only refer to specialists we've vetted directly — and we publish a protective guide on what to avoid.
07 What changed in Thai visa rules in 2025–2026?
A lot. The big four: (1) Visa-exempt entry cut from 60 to 30 days for 93 nationalities, effective April 2026 — Cabinet-approved. (2) SMART Visa was reformed Feb 2025 — only the SMART-S (Startup) category remains; T, I, E and O applicants are redirected to LTR. (3) Privilege Bronze tier deadline extended to 30 September 2026 — last call for the 650k entry price. (4) Land-border visa-exempt entries capped at 2 per year since November 2025. We track these changes monthly so you don't have to.
