I had been living in Thailand for six and a half years I have had to return to Australia for medical treatment my retirement visa expires in February should I not be able to come back before then can I apply for a visa through an agent in Thailand?
TLDR : Answer Summary
A user who has been living in Thailand on a retirement visa is concerned about its expiration while they are in Australia for medical treatment. The suggestions from the community indicate that they should consider applying for a new Non-O visa from Australia before returning, as they need to be in Thailand to apply for visa extensions. Alternatively, they could enter Thailand as a tourist and then begin the visa application process through an agent.
