I went to the Canada Thai embassy website.  The website said a doctors physical filled out sheet stating good health about various things about you is necessary.  Did I read it wrong?

If you apply for the non-OA visa, that is a requirement, along with criminal records check, mandatory insurance, etc. But most people don't want a non-OA visa, they want a non-O visa which has none of those requirements.

But the Non O has specific finiancial requirements. For some that is a reason to get a non OA.

The initial Non-OA has the same financial requirements as a Non-O (retirement). The difference is that the Non-O requires 800k in a Thai bank account sooner for the Extension of Stay if an Embassy affidavit is not possible.

Thanks. I just wanted a 60 day VISA, hadn’t gotten one since 2019 & thought the exemption would be gone by the time I go (Feb & March 2026). I’m retired but not old enough for a retirement VISA.

Yes thats what i said: specific requirements. Thus some one you dont want to transfer 800k baht to a thai bank account will much more easy show money in their home country account just for short period.
