I am hearing some changes to renewing a one year retirement visa?

I used an agent last year. I have a bank account with Bangkok bank. Agent says no problem come 1 month before its due. I have a few months..... What's everyone's expierence since renewing with their agent only in last few months or so.

Appreciate response. I used search function. Didn't find anything.

I am hearing about bank accounts being frozen and other issues.

My embassy doesn't verify funds for me.

Also I was ignorant and did not update my passbook as I couldn't find it for a bit so it doesn't show my consistent income of 65k + monthly entries .

Is there a way to get that from bank ? Is it necessary. ?

I really dont want to put up and leave 800k in a bank here. Whole reason I did my visa with an agent. If you know you remember how that hurdle is addressed. I am hearing that they can't do that anymore. Hence the 4 month freeze is what i think they're doing. Hopefully this makes sense. Thanks for the help.

Hi everyone,

Please note that it seems easy, but it is not.

My application is rejected twice - once from The Netherlands, once from Vietnam. Why? We don’t know. I’ve done it through an agency called Issa Compass. They have a legal team making the case for you and apply when they think it’s a 100% go.

They don’t give you any reason. Been to the embassy, been calling everywhere. No answers.

My stuff is in my apartment in Bangkok 😂

Good luck everyone!

Where online do I file my 90 day report. Simple to do? Agent will do for 300 bht

With the number of DTV visa rejections I’ve been seeing, I’m starting to wonder—would using an agent actually be worth it? If they can help ensure all submitted documents are in order and reduce the risk of rejection, it might be a smart move. Losing 10,000 THB over a small mistake or missing paperwork would be frustrating. What do you guys think?

Hi my friend had trouble coming in, he had hassle at airport immigration saying he had come back too quick . He flew to uk after stayin in Thailand for 90 days from sept to December then he flew back on 16 January after more than a month at home. The officer gave him a real hard time , to the point he thought he was getting refused entry. He wants to extend his 60 day tourist entry to 90 like he did last time but his fear is the immigration officer said she had put a note on his file. Do you think an agent would be able to get information on what was put on the file, he’s terrified to go to immigration to try extend and get refused . This is only his second visit , he hast been to Thailand since covid and even then only came for a 30 day visit. Any suggestions, he is not a con man just wanting to have nice longer holiday with new friends he has met. What would be cost for an agent to do 30 day extension? And do you think they can access what has been put in his file by airport immigration? Thanks in advance

I would like to know if anyone has contact of an agent who can help me to do the 90 day report please. Thank you.

2 x 60 already and currently on a 30,is cambodia via agent feasible or best to avec and return autumn ?

Any first time visa holders with DTV have success opening a bank account? If so, which bank and how did you go about it?

Hello!

Please suggest driving licence agent in Pattaya (reliable and affordable). I tried my level best but it will take months of time and also they are not accepting my Indian driving licence as it is partially damaged. I have done immigration formality and doctors certificate, TM30, form filling but all in vain now.

Hello, I want to retire in Thailand in the korat area at the end of this year, looking at the financial requirements for a retirement visa or I believe the other option is a non o visa for a year and then extend it for another year and in that time deposit 65,000 or more into a Thai bank account, would this work or do I have to stump up the 800,000 , no intention of getting married at the moment, have friends in Korat who have married and built their own houses, love the area and the friendly people

I don’t know whether to go and use an agent to simplify the process and I’m not sure if this is hundred percent legal, is there any comeback on using an agent, Thai government websites say that if you can prove from your pension provider that you have over 65,000 baht per month paid into a Thai bank account then this negate the need for the 800,000, I’m not sure what to believe because my friends are telling me that no bank or pension provider in the UK will certify this, confused
