Official Announcement for All Thailand Privilege Applicants
Thailand Privilege Card Co., Ltd. has issued a critical update regarding the membership application process. As of December 17, 2025, the screening procedures for all new applicants have been reinforced to align with stricter government regulations.
If you are planning to apply for a Thailand Privilege membership, it is vital that you understand these new requirements to ensure your application is processed without delay.
The New Requirement: Multiple Passport Holder Declaration Form
Effective immediately, all applicants are now required to submit a Multiple Passport Holder Declaration Form alongside their standard membership application.
This is not optional. This document is now a mandatory part of the application package. Whether you hold one passport or four, you must complete this form to verify your status.
Why the Change? Stricter Screening & The 5 Authorities
This new measure has been introduced to support an enhanced background check process. While Thailand Privilege has always maintained high security standards, recent regulatory reinforcements from the Thai government have mandated even stricter due diligence to prevent negative cases involving foreign nationals.
Your background check is now conducted in coordination with five specific government authorities:
- Immigration Bureau
- Department of Consular Affairs
- Foreign Affairs Division of the Royal Thai Police
- Central Investigation Bureau (CIB)
- Anti-Money Laundering Office (AMLO) (New Addition)
The inclusion of the Anti-Money Laundering Office (AMLO) marks a significant step in ensuring the integrity of the program. Please note that these measures are mandated by relevant government authorities and are not simply a preference of the company.
What You Must Do: Full Disclosure Required
Transparency is now more critical than ever. Under these new rules:
- Declare EVERYTHING: You must declare every single passport currently in your possession.
- All Nationalities: This applies regardless of nationality or how frequently you use a specific passport. If you hold citizenship in multiple countries, all details must be disclosed.
- Accuracy is Key: It is strongly advised that you provide complete, accurate, and truthful information.
The Consequences of Non-Disclosure
Do not attempt to omit a second nationality or hide an additional passport.
- Application Rejection: Any omission, misrepresentation, or submission of inaccurate information can lead to the immediate rejection of your application.
- Future Visa Issues: Even if approved initially, undisclosed information discovered later may negatively affect the visa affixation process, potentially leaving you unable to activate your visa.
