Hi All, I am a UK resident wanting to retire to Thailand early next year, I want to apply for a marriage visa whilst in thailand, I have a Thai wife and a son from previous Thai marriage, I will have the 60 day visa exemption, where do I go from there, advice greatly appreciated.

Hello Group,

Quick question please. I am here on a 90 day Non O visa, have just opened a bank account etc. am I correct that when I apply to extend my visa to 12 months, I simply go to immigration before expiration date and apply to extend it. Clearly I need all of my documents, proof of bank account and 800,000 etc to complete that process ? I had read in one post that you needed to go there and apply 1 month before hand.

Many thanks

Yesterday, 5th August, I renewed my Non O (Retirement) Visa. Does my 90 days reporting period reset from yesterday or does it continue from my last date of entry into Thailand?

Hello All, Just a quick question ? i am on a Non O ret visa, i have just returned from a short trip from UK, with my re-entry stamp, Dose the 90 day reporting start new from the new date of arrival or continual as per the 90days paper clipped in my passport. regards Kell.

What is the best Visa for a Retiree who is self insuring for health because of age and pre existing conditions?

Cheers,

Tom Gallagher

I am a US citizen living in the Philippines for the last year. I am moving to thailand based on the OA retirement visa. Do I need a background check from the USA or just a clearance from the Philippines. Or maybe non at all?

I have a Non O VISA with my child with an ED Visa.

We are travelling outside the country in few days.

Can I get a re entry permit at the Airport itself or do I need to visit Chaengwatthana?

Thanks!

I finally found a bank to open an account for me, but it has taken me 3 weeks to do it. I came into Thailand on a 90 Day Non O Visa based on family (married to a Thai). I put the 800K Baht into the bank and have to leave it in there for a minimum of 2 months before I apply for a Non O Retirement Visa. I am also told that when I apply for my visa I must apply at least 15 days before expiry of my 90 Day visa. I will only have 9 days left to apply.

Can I extend my 90 Day Visa for a week or 2. Or must I leave Thailand and come in on a 30 day Exemption. Any other thoughts?

Thank you to everyone who helped me navigate round the web site to obtain my 90 day Non O visa.

My next silly question is. If I leave Thailand to take my wife on holiday during the new year period. Will this make my Non O visa null and void when I return from holiday, and if so will my visa revert back to a tourist visa. We plan to visit Bali but as yet no bookings have been made apparent from a hotel reservation, but this can be cancelled at any time with no charge. There is a chance I can do the bank account before I leave for Bali, but I’ve only got 5 days to complete the account application before I leave for Bali

Is this doable or do I need to make other arrangements for a holiday within Thailand.

TIA for any help and advice

Hi,

I have done some searching of old posts on here and think I have my answer ..... but I sort of need to ask still and be reasured .... sorry.

I have a 12 month Non O visa .... secured with a 800,000 baht deposit and am transiting to a 65,000 monthly deposit.

But .... I have neglected to update my bank book and lost 4 months of banking life.

Will this be a problem at my renewal in February or are the bank statements the key record and the deposit book more about the last entry pre applying for a renwal ... ie money is still in the accout.

Thanks so much.
