Hello. I’m looking for any information about where to start with relocating to Thailand from the US. My husband is a disabled Vet so he has guaranteed income. I would continue to work remote at my current job. Please give me all the tips and tricks. Looking for relocate in about 2.5 years. Not sure if this is important but we will be 38 & 40 when we head to Thailand.

Hello everybody, i have a question and I'm hoping you guys can help me with my expectations.

I am a 40 year old war veteran who got wounded during a mission in Afghanistan. Due to that I have a disability pension, funded by the government, of €3500,- monthly (steady income). I have about €25000,- in savings (sitting in my bank account for almost a year). I want to participate in Muay Thai classes for 6 months (the soft power route) But due to my injury i'm not capable of doing more than 2 lessons a week.

If i can find a Muay Thai boxing school who will help me and provide me with an acceptance letter for these few lessons I will participate in weekly, do you think my application for a DTV will be accepted? And in which city is it best for me to apply? I'm in the Netherlands now, but I heard that Den Haag is not that easy.

Thank you.

Hi everyone I am just looking for advice and doing some research on moving to thailand. As a 29 year old, how could i move to thailand? I understand i would maybe have to arrive on a tourist visa and then extend after establishing a bank account and having proof of income, but i would like to hear more opinions from others. I also was looking to apply for a 90 day visa and attend a language school but i dont know much about thai language schools. Any advice for a permanently disabled veteran? I WILL be reading every comment and might not reply to most but i appreciate any opinion or wisdom. Should i rent a place in thailand to move to on my 60-90 day visit before arriving and extend by using that rental agreement or is it more complicated than that? In reality I would like to become a permanent resident and spent the rest of my days there.

Hey Everyone. I'm a disabled U.S. veteran planning to move to Thailand on January 7th, 2025 with my wife. I was wondering since we're both under 50, what would be the best long term visa option for us? I plan on working remotely but my wife will be retiring. Also, we plan on getting a tourist visa before departing. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
