Hi thanks for admitting me. I read somewhere that instead of the 800000 baht deposit in a bank. That it's possible to show something like 60000 baht a month deposited over a year

Hello all.

I'm planning for a retirement visa when I reach 50 in a few years time. And I'm planning to find a place that I can stay without headache when come to the 90 days reporting and tone for renewal.

1) need to have ฿800k in bank

2) TM30 address to be submitted for the application

3) application before arriving in Thailand or apply when reach Thailand.

4) place to stay and easy to report for 90 days and or apply for renewal is ( any recommendations beside this few place)

1) Pattaya

2) Hua Hin

3) Bangkok?

4) hatyai

5) nongkhal

6) udon thain

To my understanding that if my landlord can summit the TM30 it can be any type of place to stay right

I'm from Singapore been in and out of Thailand under 30 days tourist stamp and use hatyai to exit and reentry for other 30 days tourist stamp. I'm a bit tired moving in and out every 30 days

Admin please delete if this is against the rules

Thank you.

Please advise.

I have the 800K in the Thai bank and will enter on a 60 day tourist visa. Can I get a one year extension of stay or do I first have to convert to a Non O at immigration?

Hi Folks,

My wife and I are planning to move to Thailand next year when she is 50. My understanding is that I can piggyback off of her application since I am not 50 yet. Is this correct? And if so, does the same rule apply across the different types of retirement Visa.

Also, for the O-A or O-X Visa, is the 3 million baht bank deposit requirement per person, which means, my wife and I will need a combined of 6 million baht?

Thanks.

Hi Tod , married to a Thai, arriving back in Thailand early Jan , on a 12 month multi entry " O " spouse visa ..

The month before ,December I intend to start the 12 x monthly bank deposits of 40k , so in January of 2025 I will be able to apply for the married to a Thai type O 12 month retirement extension..

I assume and hope what I have explained is correct , but with my monthly deposits , can the 40k be just a minimum amount , and can the deposit be a day or so earlier or later ....thanks Tod ...

Hi kind folks.

50+ Canadian here planning to apply for Non O-X Retirement Visa in Canada.

Questions:

1) How long does the 3million bhat need to be seasoned in Thai bank

account?

2) Does the Royal Thai Consulate here in Canada issue the visa stamp/acceptance papers?

3) My spouse is not over 50, Phillipine passport and is a PR with me here in Canada, how/when does she apply for her dependent visa

Advice and actual experience much appreciated.

I got a yearly extension based on marriage last year. I used the 400K to buy a car a few months ago, I am now about to transfer 400K from the UK again for the next extension (2 months before I apply). Is this ok or will they check that the money has been in my account the whole year? Also I am doing it in a different Immigration office as I've moved, I read that this might be a problem.

A moderator in the group wrote as a comment in another group member’s thread:

“Do yourself a favor ... enter Thailand Visa EXEMPT and transfer the 800,000 Thai baht into your Thai bank account and apply for the Non O Visa as retiree and the One year extension of stay as retired.

NO police check required

NO health insurance required

NO medical tests required

That keeps it simple year after year.”

From this, it is my understanding that I (as a German) could forego the visa application procedure in my country, and instead enter the Kingdom on visa exempt (even with a 30 days extension), and then apply within Thailand for a Non O Visa (as retiree) and (the next year) apply for the extensions as required, provided I have 800k in a Thai bank account which was transferred from outside Thailand.

Is my understanding correct or not?

In case the above procedure does indeed work, could I extend in forthcoming years based on 12 months of income (65k per month), changing from the 800k requirement?

Thank you.

My husband and I have in previous years arrived in Thailand with O-A visas based on retirement. We’re considering applying for O visas based on retirement this year. We are Canadians.

I’m finding it a bit confusing. The consulate in Vancouver says we must both apply individually for it but there is no link on the thai evisa website to do so. Hopefully I can get better answers from here than I got from the consulate.

Is it best to for us to arrive on a visa exempt and apply in-country for an O-visa based on retirement?

We understand that we need to deposit the 800,000thb in a thai bank account and show proof of it.

How does the ‘trailing spouse’ work?

Is insurance required?

I appreciate any help you can provide.
