Need help with a refresher on the process of obtaining a retirement visa in chiang mai.
4 years back I did the below process, I recall that it was relatively easy, basically, my retirement visa and wife and child as dependents
1. Visa on arrival (Visa Exemption) 60 days , back then it was 30 days
2. After 15-30 day
3. Apply for Non-Immigrant O Visa (90day Non-O).
4. 30 days later, apply for Retirement Visa (Extension of Stay)
(I have a Thai Bank account already)
Once my visa is sorted, I start the process for my wife and child (6years old)(non-thai)
They will be a (dependent) from my visa
This is what I have done last time in Chiang Mai
I know what paperwork is required, birth certificate, marriage, passports, residential letter, cash in bank 800k.
(hopefully no changers)
Are there any changes I should be aware of?
Just a thought, is there any advantages for me to first get a 90day Non-O from my home country before arriving.
Thanks
