ORIGINAL POSTERTLDR : Answer Summary
To obtain a Non-O visa from the UK, you can apply online through the official Thai e-visa website. It is essential to check the requirements listed on the Thai Embassy's website in London, particularly for retirement visas. The application generally takes around 5 days if the paperwork is correctly submitted, but be prepared to provide additional information like an outward bound flight detail. The Non-O visa application can be found under the 'other visas' category on the site. Initially, you apply for a 90-day visa and plan to open a bank account in Thailand to later apply for a one-year extension.
