58 years old, looking at visiting Thailand for 6 months in April, Had O retirement visa 3 years back. was easy to obtain.

What visa should I get for just 6 months?

Was considering O visa, but not sure about the funds I need to deposit (800k, or was there another option of 400k then a monthly transfer of 65k)

But if I'm not worried about renewing my visa in 12 months, I could send 800k to my Thai account, get visa and then next day send it back to my Australian bank account

what do you think, is there an easier visa for 6 months?

For those who applied at Los Angeles: did they ASK for the full bank statement or just the front page with balance as I’m seeing approvals with just the front page.

I filled my DTV and paid for it online.

What does the status document check pending mean? Is there any action required from me?

Muay Thai & Age.

Anyone have any knowledge of the oldest person/s they've heard of doing Muay Thai?

bit worried I applied while in the states, but am sitting on a plane leaving now. my paperwork hasn't been processed and I submit a KUL-KBV trip Jan 13 as entry, none before.

What I'm doing is US to Tunis for a week, then Tunis to KUL. I'm worried they'll ask for more flights, and I'll be able to show them originating in the US after my application - although no longer being there...

Anyone been through something similar, and how did it pan out?

Is a passport sized photo needed when doing an in-person 90 day report in a Bangkok? I’ve read conflicting things.

Hello Everyone.

I have a flight to Thailand on 01/21 and I heard that all Visa's starting in 2025 will have to be processed through the E-Visa system.

I am planning on extending my Visa on arrival and apply for a non immigrant O visa. Will I need to now change my plan and apply through the E-Visa system? I had already purchased my ticket in Nov 2024.

Thanks for any help.

It's time to do a new visa.

I am considering the LTR or the retirement visa.

The appeal of the LTR, from what I understand, no taxes?

The visa is a little pricey but over ten years, the per year price is very reasonable especially if you consider it gets me out of doing any tax nonsense.

The appeal of the retirement visa is that it's cheap and there are a lot of "help" available.

Does anybody know the LTR is immune to taxation?

Any other opinions?

DTV is great but I fail to see how its better than the retirenment visa.

Has the ETA for visa exempt people been implemented yet? I’ll planning to come in march.

Is the online form for people entering Thailand on a visa exception in use or still on hold?
