TLDR : Answer Summary

When applying for a Non-O retirement visa in Chiang Mai, the waiting period is approximately 15 business days. Therefore, it's advisable to have about 21 days or more remaining on your current visa status (30-day exempt entry, 60-day tourist entry, or a 30-day extension) to accommodate this processing time.

15 BUSINESS (Working) Days, so you need about 21 days or more left on your current 30 day exempt entry, 60 day tourist entry OR a 30 day extension from one of those.
