Hi all, my wife (Chinese citizen) and I (Australian citizen) are thinking of retiring to Thailand. I am 60 and neither of us are planning on working, and the income and deposit requirements arent an issue. I see that the O-X visa is for 5+5 years, what happens after the ten years? Can we reapply or do we have to leave? Cheers and TIA, Peter.
Answer summary
Peter, an Australian citizen, inquires about the O-X visa for retirement in Thailand, specifically what occurs after the initial 10 years. A commenter notes that while O-X visas are rare due to high deposit requirements, it's possible to reapply for a new visa after the ten years.

OX visas are incredibly rare due to the very large deposit requirement. But to answer your question, yes, you could just apply for a new visa after the 10 years. Depending on what is available at the time.
