How do I apply for a retirement visa in the uk

@Barry *********
you can apply for the 90-days Non-Imm-O Retirement Visa through the E-Visa online system of the Royal Thai Embassy London. Once entered Thailand, get a bank account opened and transfer a minimum of 800,000 THB onto it. And as soon as the money has sat in the account for 2 months, you can apply for the 1-year Extension of the Stay Permit based on Retirement

you apply via the evisa website. Either a Non-O or a Non-OA.

@Peter ********
the Non-O/A visa is the "Longstay" visa. The "Retirement" visa is the Non-Imm-O visa (without "A"). I do not recommend the O/A visa for people who wish to retire in Thailand because it includes a mandatory Thai private tgia-listed health insurance after the second year. If you start out of a Non-Imm-O visa, you maintain a freedom of choice regarding your health insurance

No as it is irrelevant. You can legally live long term in Thailand and never have a tax filing requirement.
