I have a couple of questions re non OA (Retirement) visa. 1) Seems no proof of address/residence (eg rental agreement) where you intend to stay is required when applying, is that correct and at what point would I need to provide proof of/register my address? (Ideally I would want to stay at a hotel/Thai friends for a few week while I searched for ideal accommodation) 2) Also if I changed address to a different province after say 6 months of arriving on the OA is that straightforward to do? Many thanks in advance, new member here
TLDR : Answer Summary
The Non-OA (Retirement) visa application does not typically require proof of address in Thailand at the time of application. Instead, the TM30 form, which is a notification of a foreigner's residence, is filed by your hotel or landlord once you have settled into your accommodation. If you move to a different province after six months of arrival, you will need to file a new TM30 form at the immigration office corresponding to your new address.
