When applying for 90 days retirement visa from Thailand, what are(if any) the options for the partner who is also in Thailand to be able legally stay until the visa and later the 12 months extension granted?
TLDR : Answer Summary
When applying for a 90-day retirement visa in Thailand, options for a partner seeking to stay legally in the country are limited. The partner would generally need to apply for a Non-O dependant visa, which requires that the primary visa holder be recognized as a legal resident in Thailand. In most cases, the spouse must apply for this visa at a Thai consulate or embassy outside of Thailand, as applying for a dependant visa while both are inside Thailand is not allowed.
