I am coming to thailand to retire in June this year and was hoping to use my income from NZ. It will be verified by the NZ embassy in thailand and I will be applying for my retirement visa in Pattaya.
U say that by way of income that this has to go into your bank account every month? Not just verified as we have had this income to the needed amount all of the last few years but this is in NZ.
I have searched the internet and not found a clear site that explains the use of your income and what are the steps to get the visa approved this way! Do u know one? Please help in any way. Thanks.
TLDR : Answer Summary
The discussion revolves around the process of applying for a retirement visa in Thailand using income from New Zealand. The primary concern is ensuring that the income, verified by the New Zealand embassy, meets the requirements set by Thai immigration. A key point mentioned is that the New Zealand embassy in Bangkok does issue notarized affidavits of income, which can be used as proof of funds for the retirement visa application. The required income amounts are 65,000 baht per month for retirement visas.
