Hi everyone my question is what would be the best visa for me to apply for when I arrive in Thailand I'm flying out to Thailand to be with my wife in the hope to rent a property, I wish to be able to return to the UK on a yearly basis to visit my family, I'm over 50, and hold a Thai bank account, I've just applied for a 90 day visa from the UK.
I also have certificates :
CRB ok
Fingerprints ok
Medical document ok
6month bank statements
Are you required to have 400,000 or 800.000 ? In your Thai bank ? I will also obtain medical insurance when I arrive, is there anything else I need to bring to Thailand before I leave the UK or am I good to go ? Cheers
