What are the steps to apply for a retirement visa in Thailand for a 57-year-old expat from the Netherlands?
Advice needed. I am 57 years old from the Netherlands. I am looking to get a retirement visa but the Thai embasy overhere has so many rules. Who can tell me what are the best steps to take? Thanks, Marcel
Answer summary
Marcel, a 57-year-old from the Netherlands, is seeking advice on obtaining a retirement visa for Thailand. The process seems overwhelming due to the various rules outlined by the Thai embassy. Community responses suggest choosing the right type of retirement visa, with the 90-day Non-O visa being a common option for those over 50, which requires proof of finances and age. Additionally, it is recommended to consider using an agent in Thailand to simplify the visa acquisition process.

If you find the process complicated then one option is to come to Thailand and get an agent to sort out the retirement visa for you. The agent who runs this group can help.

The first thing you need to decide is which of the many visas referred to as a retirement visa you want to apply for, there are 4 or 5 different options all with different requirements. The most common is the 90 day Non-O visa based on being over 50, the only real requirements are proving finances and your age. You then apply for a 12 month extension of stay after you arrive in Thailand
