How the recommendation works
The test cross-references your age, how you support yourself, and your income or savings to point you to the most likely route among the five that cover almost every case. It doesn't replace the guide: if you want the full map with all twenty-plus options and their fees, it's in the visa guide.
| If… | Your route is usually | Fee |
|---|---|---|
| You work remotely for clients abroad and have ~€13,000 in savings | DTV (5 years) | ≈ €270 |
| You're 50+ with €21,000 or €1,700/month | Non-O retirement | ≈ €70 |
| A Thai company hires you | Non-B + work permit | ≈ €120 |
| You're going to study at an approved school | Non-ED | ≈ €80 |
| You earn €6,400/month or have substantial assets | LTR (10 years) or Privilege | €1,300+ |
With Bexpat the visa is paid at cost (the official embassy fee, no markup) and our fee for managing the entire move is fixed: 1.200 €. The breakdown for your case is in the calculator.
