What are the requirements and process for applying for a Thai retirement visa?

To make it clear: There is NO such thing as a retirement visa. So there are NO requirements for this visa. How nice it all is to call different visa's and an Extension of stay all based on being over 50 years of age and willing to sit out the rest of your life in Thailand, just retirement (save lot of typing I just found out) and yes I know, even Immigration Officers making it easy for them selves and say retirement, in stead of: being over 50 years of age and willing to sit out the rest of your life in Thailand. There is a link posted about the three main types of Visa which are called retirement. Make a choice out of these three, look at the website of a Thai Consulate in your area what the requirements are, if you are in Thailand, depending on Immigration Office and your current stay you can change into the Non Immigrant O visa based on being over 50 years of age etc. Or if you already have this visa you can apply at Immigration for the Extension of Stay based on being over 50 years of age etc. If you have any questions about a specific visa or the Extension of Stay, feel free to open a new topic and we will help you. For now I close this topic.
