Someone recently posted it is inadvisable to buy successive 90 day non-O visas for retirement in neighboring countries. If this is the case does anyone know why it would be inadvisable? The person gave no reason as to why.
TLDR : Answer Summary
Buying successive 90-day Non-O visas for retirement in neighboring countries is seen as inadvisable due to a crackdown by Thai immigration authorities on individuals living in Thailand without appropriate visas. There have been recent reports of delays and denials of entry for those with multiple entries on these visas. Experts suggest that it's better to apply for a yearly extension from within Thailand instead, as this approach reduces complications and aligns better with immigration rules.
