Hello everyone
Surely that this question has already been passed and I apologize but I do not find any trace!
I planned my arrival in Thailand in early October 2025 to retire.
After much research I am confronted with many contradictions.
Regarding the obligations for the O and OA visa, a monthly income of 65,000 BTH or a bank deposit of 800,000 BTH or a combination of both is required: annual income + bank deposit must be 800,000 BTH . Can you confirm this last point?
I question you here because "youtubers" in place for years in Thailand indicates this modality that I do not see any way in my research.
Then for an application for a visa on the official website it is required an address of residence in the host country ( Thailand ) : or, youtubers indicate that the application for a visa can be made from abroad ( France ) for me . Necessarily impossible for a first expatriation: can you enlighten me about it please
These youtubers who ask for 60 Euros for an hour of telephone exchange! In view of the contradictions I have noted, I am not hot for this approach, that is why I am addressing you.
