What are the visa options for retired German expats living in the Netherlands traveling to Thailand for 71 days?

I am staying 90 days without a visa. came from vienna and had an buyonwardticket booked just in case. (was not needed neither for check in [EVA] nor Immi. Get a 30-day extension before your 60 days end or leave the country and come back with another 60 days visa excempt.

I recommend to apply for a Non O Retirement visa in Thailand. You can get an affidavit about your income at the German Embassy or at a German Consulate, for example Consul Rudolf Hofer in Pattaya.

If “only” going for 71 days, then consider visa excempt 60 days (free) + 30 days extension (1900 baht). ( you may need a cheap onwardticket within the first 60 days.

Then no need to apply at the embassy.

No, you’ll both have to qualify individually, but as Karsten suggests you’ll both get a 60 days visa exemption upon arrival which can be extended with additional 30 days at your local immigration in Thailand. Be aware of that it’s a formal requirement to show proof of an onward ticket within 60 days if your airline asks for it during check in. Can be a cheap ticket to anywhere out of Thailand.

(There are some regulations regarding a one year Non O-A visa that gives one person possibility to piggyback the other as a trailing spouse, but as I understand this is rarely issued and you’ll need to check this up further with your embassy/consulate).

Hi, ihr bekommt bei der Einreise 60 Tage, dann könnt ihr 30 Tage für 1900thb bei der Immigration verlängern.
