Andy Toffo Hello all,

If you have a 60 day, visit Thai family extension of a Retirement Visa, would you be able to return to a Retirement Visa after the extension finishes, assuming you meet all the immigration requirements?

TLDR : Answer Summary

A user inquired about the possibility of reverting to a Retirement Visa after a 60-day family visit extension, following an initial Retirement Visa extension. The community response confirmed that it is indeed possible to transition back to a Retirement Visa after the family extension, provided all immigration requirements are met. The 60-day extension serves as a temporary solution to extend one's stay in Thailand.

Okay, if you're on an extension of stay based on retirement you COULD apply for a 60 day visit thai family extension when your current extension based on retirement is running out. THEN when that 60 days is up you could indeed apply for a new yearly extension based on retirement by meeting the requirements.

Think of the 60 day visit thai family extension as a way to 'buy time'.
