Is it Worth Changing from Non-O (Retirement) to Non-O-X Visa in Thailand?

This is quite an important bit (from -Non-%E2%80%93-Immigrant-Visa--%E2%80%9CO---X%E2%80%9D-(Long-Stay-10-years).html)

It still binds you to yearly checks at immigration, therefore the 1900 baht extension of the current retirement solution seems more interesting...

Foreigners must report, in person, to the immigration officer every 1 year for the examination of the qualifications and supporting documents.

- Stay permit of the Non-O-X visa holders may be revoked due to following conditions:

1) Foreigners do not have financial evidence as per stipulated by above qualifications such as:

- The sum of money in the bank account is less than 3 million Baht at the end of the first year of stay period in Thailand.

- the sum of money in the bank account is less than 1.5 million Baht at the end of the second year of stay period in Thailand, and/or the money in said account was spent outside Thailand.

Thanks everyone. Useful.

Thanks, I will post my findings after visiting CW, if they are welcome.

Thanks, two questions:

- If every time you enter the country you get five years, and you enter say on the 9th year from issue, will that grant you only 1 year, to get you to the end of the visa validity or will that still grant you five years bringing the total validity 14 years in this case?

- The 'Thai Health Insurance': I am currently insured through a UK broker (Pacific Prime), which obviously covers Thailand but is not Thai. Does that count as 'Thai' or I would be expected to purchase a Thai policy in addition to the one I have?
