Hi folks, just want to know if my wife and I get a tourist visa in Australia is it possible to change this visa to an O retirement visa in Thailand? And what are the requirements to obtain this visa? Do both of us need to get a visa or can a husband and wife use the one visa? Many thanks.
TLDR : Answer Summary
The conversation revolves around the possibility of converting a tourist visa obtained in Australia into a Non-O retirement visa in Thailand. It suggests that if a Non-O retirement visa is obtained from the consulate, the spouse can apply as a trailing spouse; however, Australian consulates may not issue these. If applying for a Non-O visa while in Thailand, both individuals must apply separately and meet the financial requirements individually.
