Good afternoon...Some advice if possible please .I am here on a 60 day tourist visa which expires on January 13. I wish to convert to a non imm O retirement visa.. how soon before the January 13 expiration date can I make application?

Hi we are thinking about staying in Thailand for a year, both retired. We would leave Thailand every 5 months then come back. With all the drama over the crackdown on border runs etc, what is the best way forward? Which visa?

Edit Australian both over 60yrs.

Don’t know if anyone can help but if you can thank you. Is there a way you can come to Thailand for 6 months a year. My wife and I would like to do this from the UK.

We are both retired 😊👍

Looking for advise

Hopefully moving permanently to Thailand asap, I have no Thai address, no Thai bank account, I qualify for retirement visa and the funds are no problem. Which is the best way to achieve this.

This is genuine cry for help so please genuine replies.

Thanks in advance

I'm on a Retirement Visa. I arrived back in country on 15th September. I did my annual extension on 24th November. Does anybody know for sure whether my 90 day reporting starts again on that date, or do I have to report on 14th December (90 days after arrival)? Or like so many other things is it dependent on the whims of each individual immigration office?

Just a quick question... I know that to get a retirement visa, you need a deposit of 800,000 baht in a Thai bank. Banks offer different types of accounts: current, savings, and fixed deposits. Fixed deposits offer better interest rates. Are any of the three types of accounts accepted for this visa? Thanks for every comments

Anybody knows, does Phuket Immigration cancel a DTV and afterwards issue a Non Immigrant O visa (retirement)?

Hi Guys,

Quick question: I arrived in Thailand with a non imm O visa and then applied for my retirement visa. Now the 90 day starts from the arrival date or from the date of my retirement visa stamp? Thank you 🙏

I arrived in Thailand on a non-O retirement visa on October 16th. On October 17th, I opened a bank account with Kasikornbank and transferred 900,000 baht to it. I'm renting an apartment; the owner submitted a TM30 form online to the immigration office. I bought a condominium on November 21st. The apartment building owner immediately completed a TM30 form for me and submitted it online to the immigration office. I'm going to the immigration office on December 18th to apply for a one-year extension. My question now is: Can I still use the immigration certificate, the TM30 form from November 21st, to apply for a one-year extension, or do I need to create a new TM30 form? And who should fill it out? Should I fill it out myself, or can the apartment building owner do it for me? Thank you very much for your help.

Hello, Is it possible to go to immigration after only two weeks in Thailand with "non o for retirement" and get the one year extension because the funds in bank account are over a million since a year already? or is there a minimum number of day of being in Thailand before a one year extension can be stamped ? thank you all
