Finding among the French schools in Thailand, the school that suits you, here is a family subject to discuss. Thailand is attracting more and more Europeans, particularly French people. Adapting to the culture of the country requires time and motivation. This is all the more true for children who are forced to change their habits to follow their parents in this new adventure. Fortunately, several French schools are established in Thailand to allow children to continue the educational program of their country of origin. Here is a non-exhaustive selection of French schools established in Thailand.

French schools in Thailand:

The French International High School

Located in Bangkok, the Lycée French International opened its doors in 2003. The establishment welcomes children from 3 to 18 years old, that is to say, students from the junior section to Terminal 12. This high school follows the French program exactly and is organized under the supervision of the French Ministry of National Education and equivalent Thai authorities.

The Lycée French International de Bangkok is directly attached to the Montpellier Academy and the University of Cambridge and thus offers many advantages to its students. Its students can, among other things, apply to obtain certifications issued by these major educational structures.

From kindergarten, children enrolled at the Lycée French International de Bangkok become familiar with English and Thai and the other 2 modern languages ​​that are on the program: German, Spanish and Chinese.

In French schools in Thailand, this establishment belongs to the official network of French educational establishments and is part of the large family of the International Schools Association of Thailand or ISAT.

All detailed information regarding Lycée French International de Bangkok is available on its official website: https://www.lfib.ac.th/.

The French speaking school of Pattaya

the French-speaking school located in Pattaya welcomes students from kindergarten to 12th grade. The programs offered there are mentioned in the Official Bulletin of the French National Education Service. Prior membership to the National Center for Distance Education or CNED is essential to be able to register at the French-speaking school of Pattaya. To be admitted, a child must master English, French, Thai or Russian. Entrance tests are corrected and validated in France. All results of annual passing exams and all diplomas (Baccalaureate and Brevet des colleges) are delivered in France before being given to students in Thailand.

Students enrolled in the French-speaking school are supervised by certified and experienced teachers. The establishment stands out from other schools by the importance it places on organization and above all on discipline.

The tuition fees to be expected are:

-Annual fee to be paid upon registration with insurance and supplies: 6,000 baht

-Catering fees per period (there are 5 periods in a school year): from 2,500 baht

The French International School Koh Samui

The Ecole Frenche Internationale Koh Samui is a French-speaking academic school located in the town of Lamai. It was created by a Franco-Thai couple in September 2001. This establishment takes care of children aged 3 to 18 of all nationalities, from the junior section to the Terminale. The school is one of the establishments approved by the French Ministry of National Education and is part of the network of the Agency for French Education Abroad or AEFE. It offers schooling following the French program, at all levels.

Students who study there can return to normal French schooling if they return to France. They can also continue their studies abroad after receiving their French national Baccalaureate diploma in this school. The Frenche Internationale Koh Samui school provides English courses validated by the British Council. The Thai language, Spanish, German and Chinese are also taught there.

In almost all French schools in Thailand, classes are held Monday to Friday from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Recess is scheduled from 10:30 a.m. and 11 a.m. in the morning and from 3 p.m. to 3:30 p.m. in the afternoon.

In addition, the school has numerous infrastructures and equipment such as a library, connected computers, classrooms, a canteen and a large playground to guarantee the effectiveness of teaching and the well-being of students. Tuition fees vary between 120,000 Baht and 135,000 baht per year, depending on the level of study of each student.

The site http://www.ecolesamui.com/ is permanently accessible for parents who wish to find out more about the Frenche Internationale Koh Samui school.

Les P’tits Bouts

In the category of French schools in Thailand, I thought of our little darlings. The P’tits Bouts nursery is located in the Sathorn district, in Thailand. The structure welcomes very young children from 16 months to 3 years old. To guarantee the safety of children, the number of places is limited to 16. The P’tits Bouts crèche changes themes and decor every month so that children can flourish and discover new environments. On the establishment’s program: various workshops such as painting, singing, drawing, dancing, etc.

French represents the official language used within the establishment. However, those enrolled already benefit from English and Thai language learning sessions. Find more information about the P’tits Bouts crèche on the website: http://ptibouts.com/pti_mots.html.

To read: How to obtain your resident card in Thailand?

Thailand is the new El Dorado of Asia. Many Europeans settle there despite the strict and complicated formalities linked to entry and settlement in the country. The residence permit is an essential administrative document for foreigners who wish to officially take up residence in Thailand. Having a residence permit can change the tax status of the holder both in his country of origin and in Thailand.

Usefulness of the residence permit in Thailand

The residence permit certifies the legal and official presence of a foreign person on Thai territory in the eyes of the Thai authorities. This document is also essential in the daily life of the foreigner. The certificate is particularly necessary to obtain an international or Thai car or motorcycle driving license, to open a bank account, to be able to buy a vehicle and for other useful procedures in everyday life.

Who issues the residence permit?

Requests for obtaining a residence permit are processed at the offices of the Immigration Commission and the Embassy, ​​depending on the case.

Case of a foreign worker

A foreign worker who has a type B visa and a Work Permit must submit his residence permit application to the Embassy.

Other visas

All persons with an entry visa to Thailand can apply at an Immigration Commission office to receive a residence permit. There are just under 70 offices spread across the different Thai provinces. The applicant must submit their request to the Immigration Department office of the city where they wish to settle.

Procedures for obtaining a residence permit

The administrative procedures for obtaining a residence permit in Thailand are quite basic.

The conditions

The applicant must have stayed more than 3 years in Thailand, be aged 14 and over and speak and understand the Thai language. Also taken into account: active income, family situation, qualifications and professional training. If the applicant is a foreign investor, he must absolutely have at least 10 million baht to invest in Thailand in projects of national or collective interest. The investor must provide a certificate issued by the commercial bank of Thailand which certifies that he has the defined amount.

Documents to provide

The residence permit application file must be complete and include:

• the applicant’s original passport
• the copy of the passport page containing the identity photo and identity information, those with the Thailand entry visas, the immigration card,
• 2 identity photos,
• certificate attesting to the address of residence in Thailand. (find accommodation)
• fees relating to the residence permit application process, the amount of which varies from one province to another,
• the “Application Form Residence Certificate In Thailand” application form delivered on site to complete (in Thai and English)
• For security reasons, the service may request a certified criminal record and take the applicant’s fingerprints.
• French people who have stayed in Thailand for at least 6 months,
• French people who no longer have a home (family and minor children) in France
• French people who no longer carry out any paid activity in France and who no longer have an economic interest in France.

Upon receipt of the documents and the application, the Immigration Commission agent provides a ticket with the reference of the application to the applicant.

The document is issued by the Commission or the Embassy within a maximum period of 10 days following the date of submission of the application.

After obtaining their residence permit, the foreigner who settles in Thailand must report to the Immigration Commission to provide proof of their legal installation in the country and present their monthly income or investments, every month for 3 months.

The tax consequences of obtaining a residence permit in Thailand

Once the residence permit has been obtained, the foreigner is officially and legally recognized as a “resident” in the eyes of Thai law. Following a tax convention between the French and Thai authorities, French people established in Thailand who receive income in France are always taxable in France. However, French people considered to be tax “non-residents” in France are subject to reduced tax rates, varying according to the amount of income received.

Income tax return

A French retiree who changes his tax domicile to Thailand must submit his income tax return to his former tax center which will be responsible for submitting his tax file and his declaration to the Non-Resident Tax Center (CINR). This structure will determine the tax rate based on the amount of income.

A French person who leaves France to settle in Thailand and whose departure is planned before the month of May must declare his income must declare his income from the previous year in Thailand in May and also submit a declaration to the French tax center, making sure to clearly note his new address of residence. If departure is planned after May, the income declaration must be submitted to the French tax center. The person concerned must inform their tax center of their change of tax domicile by specifying their new address in Thailand so that their file is transferred to the structure which takes care of non-residents.

The year following final departure to Thailand, the person concerned must make a 2042 declaration with the income they received from January 1 to the date of their departure and a 2042 NR declaration for the income they received from the date of their departure to December 31. These documents must be sent to the CINR.

Taxation terms for “residents” in Thailand

The French government and the Thai government have concluded an agreement stipulating the impossibility of double taxation.

The convention stipulates that “residents” in Thailand are taxable on their income received in Thailand and their income from foreign countries, even if the amount of income received in Thailand is greater than the amount of foreign currency brought back to Thailand. Taxable income in Thailand is income in cash and in kind (in the form of benefits) received from remuneration for work performed or an investment.

Income from inheritance or non-commercial sale of property, awards received in the course of scientific research and action in the field of education and interest incurred from a savings account in a Thai commercial bank whose total amount does not exceed the sum of 20,000 baht per year are not recorded in the income tax return.

Income received by a French resident in Thailand on property established in France is taxable in France. Capital gains on securities are fully taxable in Thailand. With regard to dividends and interest, a maximum withholding tax of 25% is provided. The taxpayer must declare this income in Thailand as soon as he receives it. This will allow him to subtract the value withheld at source from his taxes paid in Thailand in the form of a tax credit.

The Thai driving license is an essential document for everyday life. Obtaining a driving license is compulsory when you stay more than 3 months in Thailand. It is important to note that traffic conditions in Thailand are completely different from those applied on French roads. Also, the foreigner must try to get used to it on his own.

The route for the Thai driving license by equivalence

Obtaining a Thai driving license requires some fairly simple administrative procedures.

Medical visit

To begin, the candidate must go to a clinic, hospital or private medical office to have a medical examination. The driving license consultation costs nearly 200 baht and generally lasts around fifteen minutes if you do not have any proven imbalance that would actually prevent you from driving. The health professional issues a medical certificate at the end of the consultation. The validity of the medical certificate will be 1 month, because after this period, you will have to do it again.

Obtaining the “yellow tabien baan”

The candidate for the conversion of the driving license must present an administrative document which certifies that he lives in Thailand. This may be a letter of residence or a yellow Tabien Baan. Foreign workers can instead provide their Work Permit.

The yellow tabien baan is a certificate of residence mentioning the exact address of the person concerned. The administrative paper is issued by the town hall of the city where the person concerned is established. The list of necessary files varies depending on the capital. In general, the authorities require at least the following documents:

• Copies of passport pages + presentation of the original
• Copies of international driving license (recommended)
• Copy of residence permit + presentation of the original
• Lease contract or title deed with the exact home address

The foreigner must go to the town hall office with 2 Thai people with their national identity card. These two people will act as witnesses to certify that the person concerned actually lives at the address provided.

The time to obtain the yellow tabien baan varies from 10 days to a few months.

Immigration Service

Those who do not have a Work Permit or a yellow tabien baan must go to the Immigration Service office to request a residence letter.

The person concerned must provide:

• 2 identity photos (passport type) but not obligatory because your photo will be taken on site
• Copies of passport pages: identity page, visas, arrival card (+ presentation of the original)
• Document attesting that you reside in Thailand (lease contract, title deed, housing invoice)
• Application form completed in English or Thai (download from the Immigration Service website)
• Fees: around 200 baht
• Copies of important pages of the passport (identity, visa, Arrival Card) + presentation of the original
• Copy of French or international driving license (legalized by the French embassy) + presentation of the original
• Medical certificate less than one month old.
• Letter of residence
• Fees: 300 to 700 baht.

The document (generally in 2 copies) is sent directly, by registered letter sent to the applicant’s home address, within 2 weeks following the date of submission of the application.

Transportation Office

The Transport Office is responsible for issuing the Thai driving license. The application file includes:

A series of tests is planned by the Thai administration if your international license has not expired for more than 1 year:

• The test of recognizing the colors of traffic lights (on a machine or traffic light simulator)
• the reflex test (Simulator with brake pedal and accelerator in a chair)
• A one-hour video on distance perception and the ability to concentrate on driving and observing the environment. (You are in a room where people don’t even watch the video because it’s just a prevention video)
• Beyond 1 year of expiration of your international (or national) license you have additional tests: 5 hours of video and 1 questionnaire of 100 questions. (80% correct answers will validate your Thai license)

Those who fail the tests can retake them immediately by regaining a place in the long queue. Once the test has been passed, the candidate is photographed on site and must pay the tax of 200 baht. The Thai driving license is immediately issued. It is strongly recommended to go to the Transport Office office as soon as possible. The driving license service always receives a large number of applicants.

Validity of Thai driving license

The first Thai driving license is valid for 2 years. At the end of this period, you are invited to renew the document by providing the same documents as for obtaining the first Thai permit. The file will, this time, be accompanied by a copy of the expired 2-year license. You must also repeat the same tests: taking the test, taking a photo… The granting of the new driving license will be valid for 5 years this time. Thailand is a country where you have to be patient to obtain your papers but the license is produced on site immediately.

Steps to pass your Thai driving license

Foreigners who pass their driving license in Thailand must follow all the formalities provided for the conversion of the French license or the international license and provide the same administrative documents. To improve their knowledge, they must enroll in the coding course and take the coding exam.

Thai motorcycle license

The formalities relating to the conversion of a motorcycle license as well as the terms linked to the validity of the document are the same as the procedures established for the conversion of a car driving license. A driving test on a defined route is planned as part of the motorcycle license exam, for those who do not have a French or international motorcycle license. The Thai motorcycle license is valid in all ASEAN member countries. Helmets are mandatory for both passengers even if you see Thai people without helmets on the streets.

NB: If you want a car and motorcycle license, all the above documents must be provided in duplicate.

Upcoming change to driving license

Coming soon in 2018 without giving a precise date, you will have 15 hours of compulsory driving to complete. However, the problem is that currently there are only 95 driving schools in 60 provinces in Thailand that have been approved by the Ministry of Land Transport. The Transport Minister defended these proposed new requirements saying the ministerial regulation was a necessary and essential step towards improving driving standards in the country, in order to reduce road accidents. Thailand must meet international standards of conduct governed by the Moscow agreement.

Video risk reminder

Thailand is the second deadliest country in the world on the roads. Here is a video which shows you an impressive accident in Thailand. Filming in Phuket.

Did you think that there was a list for working in Thailand?  The list of authorized professions for “foreigners” in Thailand is governed by law because the monarchy protects itself. This country is a dream destination for Europeans due to a low cost of living and an exotic environmental setting, conducive to well-being. The installation arrangements in this Asian Eldorado are, however, very complex. The labor sector in particular presents drastic restrictions for foreigners. The access of foreigners (called “foreigners” in Thai) to the labor market is subject to significant regulations. I’m not trying to discourage you, just to warn you. Your project must comply with the country to avoid depression on site.

Conditions of access to work for foreigners in Thailand

Finding a paid professional activity represents the crucial step in being able to settle in a foreign country. Having a legal profession is also an essential condition for carrying out the other necessary steps to take up residence in Thailand, in particular to find accommodation, obtain a driving license, enroll your child in school, open a bank account.

A foreigner who is looking for a job in Thailand must comply with the regulations established in the country and follow strict administrative and legal procedures. The candidate must only apply for positions that are authorized for them. Once he or she has found work that meets the standards that govern foreign employment in Thailand, the “farang” (foreigner) must apply for a non-immigrant visa for work. The Thai employer must support him in this process.

After obtaining their worker visa, the foreigner must then complete the procedures to obtain a work permit. This document represents an official authorization allowing the foreigner to legally exercise a paid professional activity on Thai territory. Obtaining this important document results from an in-depth study of the personal and professional situation of the candidate and the characteristics of the Thai structure which wishes to hire them. Standards have been established by the Thai government and the slightest inconsistency at the applicant or company level immediately results in a refusal to grant a work permit.

Compliance with legislation on access to work for foreigners is important. The restriction of access to professions provided for this purpose represents one of the fundamental regulations in the country. This must be taken into account to obtain the Work Permit. Thus, it is essential to know the complete list of professions prohibited to foreigners in Thailand and to identify the professions accessible to “foreigners”.

Professions prohibited for “foreigners” to work in Thailand

A Royal decree dating from 1979 and still in force to this day, establishes a ban on the access of foreign workers to a list of 39 professions mainly from the craft and legal sectors.

A little further down find the list of professions authorized for foreigners in Thailand but here is the complete list of professions prohibited for foreign workers in Thailand:

• Manual labor
• Profession in the field of agriculture, fishing and forestry
• Jobs in the construction industry
• Wood sculptor
• Vehicle driver
• Vendors on the streets
• Careers in the auction industry
• Jobs in the field of accounting
• Working with precious and semi-precious stones
• Hairdressing and aesthetics
• Hand weaver
• Working with straw, bamboo, rattan and reed
• Rice paper manufacturer (manual technique)
• Lacquerer
• Manufacturing of Thai musical instruments
• Niellage and niellure in goldsmithing
• Goldsmith
• All stone works
• Making Thai dolls
• Quilter and upholsterer
• Making alms bowls
• Making silk products (manual technique)
• Making Buddhas
• Cutler
• Make umbrellas using paper or fabric
• Shoemaker
• Hat maker
• Broker
• Engineer profession in the field of civil engineering

• Clothing manufacturing
• Making ceramic pots
• Cigarette manufacturer
• Tourist guide or tour operator
• Peddling goods
• Thai composition (manual technique)
• Silk work (weaving)
• Secretary or clerical professions
• Professions and services in the legal field

The restrictions are due to the fact that European culture presents a significant gap compared to Thai culture. Also, the government considers that artisanal and manual trades and those whose exercise must meet standards relating to Thai customs, traditional know-how and the uses of society are not suitable for foreigners.

Furthermore, this ban also aims to preserve the order and organization of the country for working in Thailand. It is also about countering globalization which represents a real enemy for Asian culture.

More and more French people are settling in Thailand. As for all French people who choose to settle outside France, it is strongly recommended to register with the French Consulate. Registration in the register of French people established abroad has many advantages. However, due to certain inconveniences, some expatriates prefer not to appear in the consulate register.

Registration at the French consulate in Thailand

French people who have stayed for more than 6 months in Thailand are officially considered residents in the host country both in the eyes of Thai law and in relation to French legislation. Also, they are invited to register in the register of French people established outside France by contacting the regional honorary consuls or the Service dedicated to registrations, at the French Consulate, located in Bangkok.

Procedures for a first registration in the register of French people established in Thailand

Registration in the register of French people established outside France is not a compulsory administrative procedure. It is recommended to allow expatriates to enjoy certain advantages. Registration is done remotely, online, on a dedicated platform on the Service Public French website or by post to be sent to the Registration Department at the French Embassy located at: Rue de Brest, Charoenkrung Soi 36 Bangrak.

Procedures for updating or renewing registration at the French Consulate in Thailand

It is entirely possible and recommended to renew membership in the register of French people living abroad. The French consulate in Thailand notifies registrants by email within 3 months preceding the registration expiry date. Furthermore, in the event of a change in the personal situation of the person concerned, they are invited to directly update their contact details or any other information on the online platform. If the expatriate changes country of residence, he must communicate his date of departure from the former host country and his date of entry into the new country and modify all his contact details.

If the person concerned leaves Thailand to return to live in France, he must absolutely notify the Consulate to obtain a certificate of deregistration proving that he is no longer registered in the register of French people established in Thailand.

The advantages of registering at the French consulate in Thailand

Joining the register of French people living abroad has many advantages through the French consulate in Thailand, particularly from an administrative and security point of view.

Also, in the event of a health or other emergency, the Embassy can quickly notify the family and take care of the person concerned. If the host country is in crisis and/or the foreigners are in danger, the expatriates registered in the register benefit from support from the Consulate and are constantly informed of the progress of the situation, the measures to be taken and in the event of an extreme emergency, benefit from ease in the repatriation procedures.

Administrative

All documents required for registration at the Consulate are recorded on the French Public Service platform. The data subject can access their online file at any time and from any location provided they have a device connected to the Internet. So he can retrieve and print all the documents when needed. Those registered in the register benefit from ease and reductions in fees for certain administrative procedures relating to installation in Thailand, such as access for minor children to study grants to continue their education in a French establishment established in Thailand.

The procedures at the French consulate in Thailand to obtain certain administrative papers such as the CIN and passport are also easier and faster.
