The Membership Fee is US$25,000. This is a one-off payment and membership is valid for life. The Company reserves the right to change Membership Fee without prior notice. Membership is transferable at any time, subject to a fee of 10% of prevailing value.

Member Privileges

Members are entitled to an outstanding variety of privileges, provided by both the Thai Government Sector and Private Sector organizations, namely:

Visa Privileges

Members are entitled to stay in Thailand for the lifetime. However, they will receive a 5-year multiple entry tourist visa which will be automatically renewed at the end of each term. The visa can be arranged either from the Members’ home country or in Thailand at no charge to the Member.

Any Member who resides in Thailand for more than 90 days continuously will have their visa endorsed and extended by the local immigration office at a fee of Bt 1,900 per extension. The member is thus not required to leave Thailand.

Immediate family of Members, including wife and children, will be permitted to reside in Thailand for the same period of time as the Member. However, they will not receive the same visa stamp as the Member.

Currently, all foreigners who travel to Thailand are granted either a tourist or non-immigrant visa, which allows them to stay for 30 days or 90 days respectively. Regardless of which category they receive, they are required to leave the country to apply for a re-entry visa or else incur a daily penalty fee of Bt 200.

Airport Services

Thailand Elite will provide Members with a seamless service upon arrival in the country, with Associates personally greeting and escorting Members by private shuttle to a VIP Lounge, whilst their fast-track passage through immigration and customs and collection of their luggage is arranged. Members will then be transferred in complete comfort by a courtesy limousine service to their hotel or residence.

For out-bound travel, Members will also receive courtesy transfer to the airport. Thailand Elite Associates will escort Members to VIP Lounge whilst fast-track passage through check-in and immigration is arranged.

These services are available at all international airports in Thailand, with transportation offered to any destination within cities where such airports are located, and are also extended to the passengers accompanied by Members in same limousine.

Members should inform the Call Centre 24 hours in advance to book the airport services.

Golf, Spa & Healthcare Privileges

Members have full access to more than 40 of the most prestigious golf courses throughout Thailand,with courtesy green fees being provided on each occasion. Other incidental charges will be borne by Members.

Guests may accompany Members at their own cost. Fees at private member clubs are charged at normal rates, whilst special rates are available at all other courses.

Members are entitled to 1.5 hours of courtesy traditional Thai massage or equivalent per day at any of 80 exclusively selected spas.

Members are entitled to a courtesy annual medical examination at any of 19 preferred, international standard hospitals in Thailand.

Reservations for all the above can be made in advance through the Call Centre.

Travel & Dining PrivilegesSpa

Throughout 2004, Thai Airways International are offering Members a free round trip ticket with every first or business class ticket purchased on international flights. Members and their guest are required to travel together on the return journey.

Members traveling alone are entitled to a 25% reduction for all first or business class travel on domestic flights.

Members have full access to Thai Airways International VIP Lounges worldwide, irrespective of which airline they are traveling with.

Members will receive special services at Thailand’s premier hotels, including room upgrade, welcome drink and fruits, as well as a preferential rate.

Members will receive preferential rates at popular restaurants and entertainment venues, as well as on customised tour programmes, and rental of private airplanes, helicopters, yachts and vehicles.

Property Investment Privileges

Currently, Members can purchase 10 rai (16,000sqm) of land for residential use.

Thailand Privilege Card Company Limited, a Government enterprise, will hold the title deed for the land on the Member’s behalf and will lease the land to the Members for 90 years. However, Members are obliged to sell the land if membership is transferred or terminated.

Members are eligible to sell the land at any time, either to a Thai or foreign citizen. The Thai citizen can subsequently register the title deed in his/her own name, whereas a foreign owner must adhere to Thai law. Ownership of the land will be inherited, although they are not Elite Member.

The law governing land ownership is currently under review and is scheduled to be amended within mid 2005. The new law will allow Members to hold the title deed for a one rai plot of land.

For Members who acquire land through the Thailand Privilege Card Company Limited, title deeds can be transferred to Members’ name for the land purchased, after the new law becomes effective.

Forthcoming Privileges

Members will enjoy increasing benefits as our family of service providers grows, namely with boutique hotels, golf courses and other exclusive member clubs.
