TLDR : Answer Summary
Many expats looking to secure a retirement visa in Thailand find the financial requirements challenging, particularly the need to have 800,000 THB (or the equivalent in pension income). Comments suggest various options including getting the necessary funds via a visa agent, marrying a Thai national (which reduces the financial requirement to 400,000 THB), or considering other visa types like student visas or non-O visas based on marriage. While agents are an option, their use raises concerns about legality and accountability. Discussions also cover the importance of holding the funds in a Thai bank account or a foreign account, and the importance of long-term financial planning for living in Thailand.
NON-O RETIREMENT VISA RESOURCES / SERVICES
  • Go to the Retirement Visa Section for information on requirements, including age restrictions, financial requirements, and necessary documentation.
  • For immediate assistance, contact Thai Visa Centre directly via LINE at @ThaiVisaCentre or Email them.
  • Explore recent discussions by using the Non-O Retirement Visa tag in the search box at the top of the page.
  • Join the Thai Visa Advice Facebook Group to ask your questions, and get advice from others.

 just once? I thought twice if by land border and unlimited if by airports. (Although IO not thrilled to see too many border runs in order to get another extension) but did that change? Just one now?

Don't use an agent if you want to stay in Thailand seriously. If any law changes or agents are abolished you will not be able to renew, and will have to leave. Best to just save up and have peace of mind if you really want to live in Thailand.

The time he will realise he should have taken out insurance is when he is all banged up in hospital, and the doctor's are more concerned with him being able to pay before looking at or trying to heal his busted body... hence the GFM.. which I will take note of his name, so I can ignore it.

The 800K baht is non-negotiable.

Either in country or abroad, some kind of bank account.

If abroad, you follow the guidelines for an O-A retirement visa...having those funds in your account in the US or the UK or Australia or Germany or wherever.

If within the country, the funds will need to be in a Thai bank account.

Or if you are married to a Thai, then the money is half the 800K baht or 400k and you do the visa for that status.

 I used the OA Retirement Visa using funds in my IRA in America. There are many additional requirements for the OA, some hoops to jump through, including insurance, health forms, bank statements and letter from the bank, and FBI fingerprint and background clearance. Once I moved to Thailand, I opened two bank accounts and since moving back to America, I'm sending money into those accounts fairly regularly. I'll be able to use the Thailand banks statements when I move back to Thailand in a few years

 No that is for a marriage visa. If you want a retirement visa extension you need either 800,000 THB in a Thai bank account in your name. Or 65,000 a month pension paid into your Thai bank and proof it's a pension. Or a combination of pension plus money in your Thai bank account that is equal to 800,000 per annum. So if you have 400,000 pension, then you only need 400,000 thb in your Thai bank and proof for any of these scenarios that the money comes from outside Thailand. Other than this, as some have suggested as long as your over 50 and have some sort of income then agents can sort it for you.

 No... then it's not Non-O "based on retirement" anymore, then it's Non-O "based on marriage". Different kind of visa, different requirements. For a "retirement" you will always need the 800k or the 65k/month.
