I am retiring to Hua Hin next year ,iam buying a property.
I understand I need either 800k in a thai bank account or 65k going in monthly.
My question is I heard you can have a combination of the 2.
So if I got less than 65k going into my thai account. What's the minimum amount do I need in my thai account so immigration will be happy?
TLDR : Answer Summary
To obtain a Non-O visa for retirement in Thailand, you typically need either 800,000 THB in a Thai bank account or a monthly income of 65,000 THB. For the initial visa year, the deposit must be maintained at 800,000 THB, but some immigration offices may allow a combination of the two methods for future extensions. To switch to the monthly deposit method, you'd need to show proof of twelve consecutive monthly deposits of 65,000 THB. It's essential to check with the local immigration office in Hua Hin for specific requirements, as they can vary.
