What is the best visa for settling in Thailand for a 55-year-old, and are there specific bank deposit requirements for a retirement visa?
Hi everyone. Can you advise me on the best visa to settle in Thailand. I am 55 and understand you need to have 800000 bht in the bank for a retirement visa. Does this money have to be deposited in a Thai bank or can I get stamped documents from the UK showing the funds?
