si ton soucis est de pouvoir résider en Thailande alors que tu n'a pas encore 50 ans ( ou que tu n'est pas marriée avec une thaie)
et que tu cherches a créer une société uniquement dans ce but,
je ne dis pas que c'est impossible mais je crois que tu vas te compliquer la vie pour un résultat tres aléatoire
il va te falloir créer une sociét dans les regles de l'art, avoir des employés, payer ( réellement) leurs salaires leurs sécu, avoir un permis de travail, te payer un salaire, et payer des impots, .. et bien sur il faudra que ta société ait une activité réelle, des entrées et sorties d'argent, et des bénéfices ! car il te faudra justifier de revenus et réels et au dessus du minimum fixé par laes regles si ta société ne fait pas de bénéfice, tu auras aussi sec le fisc sur le dos !
Les thais ne sont pas des demeurés, loin s'en faut et ils verront vite si ton activité est bidon !
mon avis: les thais sont chez eux, ils font ce qu'isl veulent, ne paient pas d'impots, ne respectent pas les regles et "" s'arrangent "" entre eux mais toi, étranger, tu peux essayer de faire comme eux, mais au moindre soucis ou a la moindre entourloupe, tu arriveras difficilement a trouver un ""arrangement" a la thai ca peut durer des mois ou des années mais regardes ce qui se passe actuellement avec ceux qui pendant des années ont séjourné en Thailande avec des visas de touristes . J'en connais qui apres 15 ans de séjour, femme et enfants thais, viennent de se voir refuser le renouvellement de leur visa !
dur dur !

Salut lukmee,
et tout d'abord merci d'avoir répondu, mais plus précisement, je dois réellement me marrier et créer une stè bien réelle et non une stè écran, donc si tu as d'autres renseignements, fait moi les connaitre, d'avance merci et à plus

pas de secrets
tu as toutes les infos sur le site cité franco-thai
et en anglais le meilleur site d'info ( et un forum tres actif) que je connaisse c'est www.thaivisa.com
en thailande, si tu fais les choses en regle, c'est tres simple et plutot rapide ( je dirais infiniment plus rapide qu'en France : ici je n'ai jamais passé plus d'une heure pour mon visa d'un an et jamais plus de 30 mn pour mon permis de travail ! quant mon épouse en France devait obtenir sa carte de séjour, c'était des journées entières dans le 93 a attendre qu'on veuille bien la recevoir pour lui dire de revenir lendemain avec d'autres papiers, et au bout de 3 renouvellements provisoires de 3 mois, se voir attribuer une carte de résident valable encore 3 mois puisqu'elle avait mis mois a l'obtenir !!
Essayer de contourner les regles en Thailande, de trouver des arrangement, c'est tendre le baton pour se faire taper dessus ( avec ce que ca veut dire pour un étranger qui restera pendant toute la durée de séjour un farnag avec un visa d'un an renouvelable !! ) Il suffit ( mais c'est peux etre ce qu'il y a de plus dur !) de trouver un assistant capable, et de confiance pour suivre pas a pas la procédure
meme marrié a une thai, avec des enfants, ..

Voila, ça y est, c’est fait. Ce n’est pas réjouissant mais le nouveau gouvernement transitoire a fait passer la nouvelle Loi des Affaires pour les Etrangers (FBA ou Foreign Business Law). En quelques mots, elle interdit aux étrangers de créer une société de droit thaï, comme beaucoup l’ont fait par le passé, pour « posséder » une propriété. Il faut donc, maintenant, avoir de vrais partenaires thaïs qui possèdent 51% de la société et qui ont réellement investi leur propre argent avec vous dans votre société.
On peut aussi louer un terrain à des propriétaires thaïlandais. Pour cela, vous ferez un contrat pour un bail de 30 ans théoriquement renouvelable pour la même période (mais sans garantie). Mais il est possible de posséder les bâtiments sur le terrain à 100%. C'est un arrangement un peu bizarre, mais il fonctionne.
Dans tous les cas, avant de faire quoi que ce soit, nous vous conseillons vivement de consulter un avocat sérieux avant toute entreprise.
Dans tous les cas, aujourd’hui, la meilleure option est d’investir dans un appartement (condominium), car il sera a vous à 100%.
Mais avant tout vous devrez vous poser la question du visa qui vous permettra de vivre sur place car les visas sont aussi en ligne de mire du nouveau gouvernement. Pour les personnes de plus de 50 ans, le visa « O-A-retraite » est la meilleure solution, mais il faut avoir les moyens de satisfaire aux conditions. Actuellement, il faut montrer 800.000 baht dans une banque thaïe (déposés au moins 3 mois avant la demande et maintenu pendant au moins trois mois au-delà) ou un revenu prouvé de 65.000 baht minimum mensuel pour satisfaire aux extensions annuelles de ce visa. A Pattaya, on demande les deux, voire, en plus, un virement mensuel vers la Thaïlande d’au moins 65.000 baht par mois. Il vaut donc mieux le demander à Bangkok. Pour les personnes mariées à une thaïe, a compter d’octobre 2007, les extensions liées au visa « O-mariage » seront obtenues si l’épouse ouvre un business et un compte en banque sur lequel l’étranger devra verser un salaire mensuel de 40.000 baht et un impôt annuel sur ce revenu (entre environ 5.000 et 10.000 baht selon qu’il y a ou non des enfants). Idem à Pattaya où l’on vous dit « qu’il serait mieux aussi d’avoir 400.000 baht minimum à la banque » ; donc il est préférable de le demander a Bangkok.

Hi everyone,
My name is Deborah, I’m French. I’m married and have two children. I’m a clinical psychologist specializing in psychotraumatology, and I’m also pursuing medical studies.
For some time now, I’ve been seriously considering moving to the United States. My long-term goal is to practice medicine in the U.S., with a particular interest in forensic pathology. I know the journey is demanding (USMLE, residency, fellowship, etc.), but I’m ready to commit to several years of hard work.
For now, I’m focused on building this project thoughtfully. I want to improve my English, better understand the American system, and connect with people who’ve already gone through this process or are living in the U.S.
I have a few questions:
- Are there any doctors or international students here who’ve successfully matched into a U.S. residency? - When did you start preparing for the USMLE? - What advice would you give to someone still in medical school? - Which states would you recommend for a future career in forensic pathology, with a good quality of life and good schools for kids? - Is it better to do an observership or a research fellowship before applying for residency? - What are, in your opinion, the pitfalls to avoid when planning such a project?
Thank you so much to everyone who takes the time to respond. I’d really appreciate any advice or experiences you can share!

Hi everyone, my son’s school is offering him a one-month Erasmus trip to Ireland, but he has to find a junior cycle school that will accept him and a host family on his own. Honestly, we’re struggling—we’ve contacted two schools and haven’t heard back! If you have any leads...

Hi there,
I’m considering moving to Miami to live and work for a few years.
If anyone knows what the administrative formalities are—both for getting a work permit and for the steps and reputable organizations to contact (since I imagine there are scammers in this space) when buying a studio in Miami or Miami Beach—I’d love any info you can share!
Have a great day

Hi everyone,
I’d love to hear your thoughts and experiences about marrying a Cuban and moving to Cuba (not the other way around!). Yes, some of us actually *want* to stay on the island! Is it possible to work there without too much hassle, or is it really complicated?
Thanks in advance!

Hi everyone,
I’m heading to Bangkok for a 5-month internship, and I’m wondering about the budget because I’ve read all sorts of things—so I decided to post here to get answers tailored to my situation! :D I found housing that costs me 7,000 baht (I know it’s a bit pricey, but it’s super convenient...), which works out to about 160 € all-inclusive. So, I was wondering if it’s realistic to live on 500 or 600 € per month, and if so, under what conditions? Is that enough, considering I’ll be working 40 hours a week?
Thanks in advance for your replies—I hope they’ll reassure me!

Hi everyone,
WEP offers loads of different projects, including one I really like: helping and volunteering on a farm, particularly in South America (Peru or Argentina).
I’d love to know if anyone has tried this project or knows someone who has... or has done something similar? I’d like to get some feedback before diving into the adventure.
If so, could you share your thoughts on the project, any tips, etc.?
Thanks to anyone who replies!

Hi there,
Our departure time is getting closer (we have less than 2 years left—it’s both a long time and so short!). To start preparing seriously, we’ll need quite a bit of info. If anyone knows the rates charged by movers for a crate to French Polynesia, or what pitfalls to avoid (I know you can get quotes directly from movers, but I’d love insights from actual customers😉).
Are there any special requirements before leaving France (aside from taxes...)?
Thanks to everyone for your help—every bit of info is useful. We’re aiming for a departure around 06/2010 (just need to save up a little more...). Thanks again!

Hi, I’m a self-employed physiotherapist in France, and as my wife (a nurse) and I look into working abroad in about two years, I’ve been offered an equivalence to become a respiratory physiotherapist in Switzerland. Actually, I’m currently doing a postgraduate diploma in pediatric respiratory physiotherapy and want to specialize in that area. Anyway, that’s not the main point—could anyone explain the pros and cons of doing this job in Switzerland? Based on the paperwork I’ve received, the equivalence seems purely administrative or almost... What about working conditions, quality of life, salaries, etc.?
Thanks for your replies. PS: Same question for my wife, a nurse, regarding her integration.
Thanks, Nicolas and Bérengère

Hi everyone!
I’m looking for information about jobs in early childhood in New Caledonia. I’m currently a childminder in a MAM (multi-accueil) and I’ve also worked for about 6 years in several daycare centers as a childcare assistant. In the summer of 2026, my husband is being transferred to New Caledonia. We’ll be living near Nouméa. Do you know if the early childhood sector is a good field for jobs there? Can’t wait to discover this island! Right now, we’re in the middle of all the administrative paperwork for our 3 kids, finding housing, bringing our cat to the territory, and so on! Thanks for your feedback!!

Hi everyone!
I’d like to move to Spain, specifically to Málaga. To do that, I’d like to know if I’ll need any official documents from France to work there, or anything like that... I’d also love to hear from people who’ve moved to Spain for work—do Spaniards like the French? Is it hard to fit in? What are the salary ranges for a ready-to-wear salesperson? And is it easy to find housing?
Thanks! 🙂

Hi everyone! 👨🏾🤝👨🏻
My partner and I currently live in Antibes—we’re both freelancers working remotely. We’re thinking about potentially moving to Italy.
We’d like to settle near the French border, between Ventimiglia and San Remo (this is important because we need access to Nice Airport twice a month). ✈️
I’d love to hear about life in this region! We’re looking for a quiet spot close to the sea. Any recommendations? As for the paperwork, is it difficult to get everything official? Is finding housing tough in this area? What kind of guarantees are usually required? If any kind soul could shed some light on this, we’d really appreciate it! 🥺🏻

Hi everyone,
I’d like to get some information about my eligibility for the DV Lottery.
About my background: • I earned a *Bac Pro* through VAE (*Validation des Acquis de l’Expérience*), issued by the *Éducation nationale*. • I also have a professional certification as a *Conseiller en Insertion* (Employment Counselor), issued by the Ministry of Labor. • Altogether, this adds up to a *Bac+2* level.
I’d like to know if this level qualifies me to apply for the DV Lottery.
Regarding my work experience: • I work as an *Employment Counselor*. • I checked on O*Net Online for the classification: Job Zone 4, SVP Range: 7.0 – <8.0. • I only have one year of experience, but I handle similar tasks in business creation.
So my question is: can I apply for the DV Lottery despite my relatively short experience, given that my job falls under Job Zone 4?
Thanks in advance for your answers and advice! !

Hi everyone,
I’m looking for info on villages around Aix, like Fuveau, Bouc-Bel-Air, or even Éguilles and Venelles? We’re a couple with a child living in the Paris region, and I’ll be relocating to Aix-en-Provence in spring 2026. We’d love to swap our apartment for a house with a pool within 20-30 minutes max of central Aix, with a budget of around 650k €.
In terms of climate and geography, I’ve read that Aix is in a basin where it can get really hot. What about the surrounding villages that are a bit more elevated, like Venelles? Is it just as stifling?
For a family, which area would you recommend?

Starting this spring, we want to settle near Aix-en-Provence. We're tired of living in the mountains with all the snow—we really need some sunshine and a fresh start. Is it hard to find a house to rent there? What about prices? If you have any great tips or useful info about the area, we’d love to hear it. I work in education and want to do prevention work in Marseille or Aix—are there jobs in the social sector?
Anyway, we need tons of info, but we’re sure we’re going to take the leap—no hesitation, adventure is adventure!!! Thanks for your help and any experiences you can share.

Hi,
I’m an osteopath and I’d like to set up and open an osteopathy practice in Thailand. I don’t have a precise location in mind yet, but I’m thinking maybe Hua Hin. I saw there’s an osteopath based in Phuket, so I wrote to him for some info, but he still hasn’t replied🤪!
So I’m reaching out to people who live there or know the country well: I’d like to know what the best ways are to advertise and get known in Thailand. Are there any local classifieds newspapers? First, I’d like to practice from my apartment. Is that allowed in Thailand? Ideally, I’d like to work part-time in a private hospital as an osteopath. I’m thinking that in Thailand, the medical field is much more open than in Europe!!! Has anyone seen an osteopath or chiropractor working in a Thai hospital? Do you know the price of a consultation?
Any info you can share will be super helpful! Thanks in advance[;)!!!]

Hello everyone,
We’re a small family from the south of France, with a 2-year-old little boy, and we’re dreaming of starting a new adventure abroad by opening our own business. For now, we haven’t chosen a specific destination yet.
We mainly speak French, with a basic level of Spanish and English, and we’re ready to improve these two languages if needed. We’re looking for a multicultural, safe country with quality healthcare and good schools accessible for our son. We’d also love a pleasant place with a mild climate where life is good.
Our idea is to travel to different countries to explore, compare, and refine our project. We’d be really happy to read your tips, experiences, or anecdotes if you’ve already undertaken a similar project or if you know key points to anticipate.
Thanks in advance for your shares and help—it would really help us move forward with our project! 😄
Hi everyone,
I’m heading to Dublin as an au pair in a few weeks.
I’m looking for a reputable language school. It’s so hard to choose! Has anyone already done a language stay in Dublin? Any tips? Thanks so much! :)
Hi everyone, so I’m planning to go study at a community college in the U.S., but the only snag is which one—there are so many options over there! I’ve heard about one in California, Diablo Valley College, and another in Florida, Valencia College. I know both states are super attractive for tourism, but my main criteria are teaching quality and price. I’m open to any advice, comments, or suggestions—thanks in advance! The start of the semester is coming up, and I’m a little nervous...
READY, SET...... GO...... TO YOUR KEYBOARDS!!!!!!!! lol

Hi! I’m looking for an apartment in Malaga from September (2025) until January for my Erasmus exchange, but I’m not finding much, and it seems like there are a lot of scams. Does anyone have any leads or tips? Thanks!^^
