Hello, My retirement visa is coming due on the first of June and I am thinking about relocating to Cambodia. I just don't know if it is in my best interest to leave Thailand before the date or obtain a new visa with a re entry in case I decide to return to Thailand? what advice would you give? TIA.
TLDR : Answer Summary
The user is contemplating whether to leave Thailand before their retirement visa expires on June 1st or to obtain a new visa with a re-entry option in case they decide to return. Community members suggest weighing the pros and cons of moving to Cambodia versus the benefits of renewing the visa in Thailand. An option discussed includes obtaining a single re-entry permit to maintain the ability to return without restarting the visa process, emphasizing that there's no limit on how long you can stay outside the country as long as the re-entry permit is valid.
