TLDR : Answer Summary
To live permanently in Thailand, options include the Retirement Visa for those over 50 with certain financial requirements, and the Thailand Elite Visa for younger individuals who can afford it. Permanent Residency is also an option, but generally challenging to obtain. Many commenters advise researching and consulting with experts or agents for personalized guidance.

Can someone explain to me why people in a group is responding to someone asking a question and your response is try Google, jist answer the question as asked all you can do. Perhaps they have googled and want another point of view opinions options they may not understand
totally agree with you there's nothing better than getting advice from people who have actually gone through it. Otherwise what is the purpose of this group 🤷♂️
Not sure if you have noticed but society is becoming increasingly idiotic. While most of us recognise there are no stupid questions, becuse if someone doesnt know something, they need to or have to ask a question to find out, right?
What this person has done is basically asked someone to do the work he should be doing himself! Anyone can figure out what they need to enter a country by searching google, hes got wifi or he wouldnt be able to ask on here!!! If one has searched google and found all the FACTS they require (no grey areas) but want some more intricate info, then fine, ask away for peoples personal experiences
If someone cannot figure out what the requirements are for themselves, or at least work out close to whats required, are you confident they should be wandering around an airport by themself?
The intelligence level of questions being asked on here on a regular basis are actually worrying
The first question is the starting point. What's the point of this group if you can't ask questions? Point somebody in the right direction instead of finding ways to complicate everything Karen.

How old are you? If below 50 y.o. and you don't plan to work in Thailand you can obtain Thailand Elite visa for 5-10-20 years (600.000-800.000-1.000.000THB). Now Elite visa is eligible for Pakistani citizens too. If 50+ y.o. and you have 800.000THB at Thai bank you can get retirement visa. If you have Thai girlfriend you can marry her but you need to show 400.000THB.
I got dtv its relatively cheap,easy,gives you as many returns as you want ,can't stay over 180 days,can get a 180 day extension though..if you want a bank account,drivers license it'll cost at a visa service
If you can get a job offer with a work permit then you change your visa. The author hasn’t said that he wants to work but I suspect that’s the intention.
a foreigner first needs a Non-Imm-B visa, in order to apply for a work permit. So, in order to change the visa or receive a Non-Imm-B visa, a foreigners needs to invalidate his existing visa or stay permit, which in most cases is done by exiting Thailand without a re-entry permit
I'd say it is not such a good answer, most of all the last sentence doesn't make any sense . . . . . . .as you can't work on ANY of the visas Ralph listed - you won't even get a work permit issued
He distinctly said "in most cases you can't work", and doesn't everyone know you don't (usually) come to Thailand to work? He was also up front admitting it's "a little more tricky" trying to stay permanently. But alas, it IS doable.
