What are the stay requirements for a retirement visa in Thailand for those over 50?
Hi all. Hope you are well.
Question....if you are over 50 and apply for the retirement Visa....how many days a year are you obliged to stay in the country. Can you actually leave for say 3 /4 months at a time and still have the visa? Thanks In Advance

Answer summary
There are no minimum stay requirements for the retirement visa in Thailand for individuals over 50. Holders of this visa can leave the country for extended periods, including 3 to 4 months, as long as they return to renew their visa when necessary. It is important to obtain a re-entry permit if planning to leave to avoid visa issues.

you can't get a multiple entry retirement visa in Thailand and most embassies don't sell it. You're talking about re-entry permit not multiple entry visa.

None, you just need to be there when you're Extension is due for renewal or it's over and you start again. You also need a re-entry permit if you leave otherwise the same result.
