Check the requirements on Thai Embassy/Consulate website serving where you're applying from as you have plenty of time to get one before you arrive and you touch the ground running.

How much does the TVA charge for arranging a Thai retirement visa? I have the £800,000 bahrt but not in a Thai account but a UK account

Do not pay any agency more than 5000 baht. If you have the 800,000 baht you can do easily. If not the agent will get you a visa fraudulently. If big joke gets you it’s you that will pay the fine and go to prison not them.

pay an agent 5000 baht for a retirement extension then it is almost certainly going to give you problems even if you get your passport back.Todd *********
