Retirement visa for dependents: spouse plus 2 minor children. So once the main person gets the retirement visa, to apply for the spouse (under 50) and 2 children, what is the financial requirement? Is the 800,000 baht for initial visa enough or do they need to show individually as well? And how much? Thanks.
TLDR : Answer Summary
When applying for a retirement visa in Thailand, the main applicant must originally qualify, and then seek separate visas for dependents, including a spouse and minor children. Each dependent generally needs to meet their own visa requirements, as trailing spouse visas are not commonly available. The financial requirement typically is not solely the initial 800,000 baht; instead, both spouses may need to show individual proofs unless one qualifies for specific options like the LTR Wealthy Pensioner visa, which allows for family members under certain financial thresholds.
