I need some 'what kind of visa' advice from you for my current situation. Would be great to understand what is feasible and/or possible for myself and what you guys recommend:
- I live in Germany
- 50years old
- ready to step down from a well paid job and live from my savings for rest of my life
- own a Condo since 12years in Jomtien Beach
- have a Thai bank account
- travelled past 25yrs minimum 80x to Thailand all on 30/60 days stamps. Meaning 3-6times per year in average
- 4 stamps in my passport for 2025 so far btw...
- never extended or have any legal issues
- can provide any home financial requirements (leave my Thai bank account with necessary savings for spendings only)
- have spent money (ETF saving plan) which pays me 5.5k Euro/month for next 8years
- have a health precondition which excludes it probably from most insurances
- I spend 6months abroad from Germany with heavy travelling in and outside Thailand
What I am looking for is a visa which relieves me from checking or applying any trips in/out from Thailand most of the time. Meaning I love to travel and go to Lao, Vietnam, Cambodia etc. many times as well. So multiple entries etc. would be required.
Now I see there is DTV, LTR and other options but can't really figure out what makes sense while I don't really see a point for the Thailand privileged cards.
Health insurance I do currently for long termed travel insurance which only covers in serious situations and is better than nothing.
So for it's more health issues rather than financial aspects...
I’m in Roi-et on a non-O (retirement), and plan to apply for an extension. I have the money in kasikorn bank, but the seasoning will be complete on Oct. 1 (some difficulties getting that set up)and my 90 days is up on the 12th. Does that give enough time for processing or will I have to leave the country for a time?
I built a house on my wife's property 2 1/2 years ago. We winter there 5 months and 7 months in the U.S. According to the Royal Thai Consulate I can apply for a yearly renewal retirement visa as follows: retirement income plus money in bank for 60 days equals 800,000 bht. I used to go to Laos to get re stamped but almost didn't get back last time. Not doing the border bounce.
Does anyone know if a person would need a visa traveling to THAILAND from the U.S. I’d like to go for a couple of months to see if and where I want to retire. I’m retired all ready just looking into HUA HIN so any advice will be appropriated
The retirement visa requirements are confusing me. You have to open a Thai bank account and maintain a minimum balance  to apply for the retirement visa, but in order to open the account, you have to show that you already have a long-term visa…. which you can’t get until you get the bank account ? Can someone please straighten me out? 
Can an earned monthly income of $4000 USA currency is acceptable to get a retirement Visa ? Or does it have to be a pension? I'm 52 and married to Thai woman with a 3 year old Thai baby.
Hello, I have a question about the $800k Baht requirement for non O retirement visa. I have half the amount and about $108,000 TB($3200.00 USD)/month retirement income and around $10k USD in savings. The visa agent said he could help meet the $800k level but would hold my passport until my funds cover the full amount. Is this usual practice with visa agents ? I could more than likely fund this fully myself in about 5 months. He adked me how long I would need to fund full amount. This is all new to me so i dont need any sarcastic comments. Just some real practical knowledge from anyone that has experience with this.
