Hello. Currently living in Thailand on a Non Imm ED visa. I’d like to change to a retirement visa next month. I have the required funds in a Thai bank account.

1. Will I have to leave the country to apply? (Maybe I need to have a non imm O before I can apply?

2. If so, anyone with experience of foreign Thai embassies abroad that can recommend where I might go?

I ask because I’ve heard so much contradictory information and the odd horror story. I’m told it is possible to do without leaving the country too?

It’s all a bit confusing to me…

Thanks in advance for any suggestions and advice you can offer.

Re-registration and photo to send more than 50,000 baht for an internal transfer.

Just so people are aware, K-bank has no requirement for foreign account holders to do this. You can still send whatever you apply in the app.

Only Thais need to register now.

I've just had a long drawn out conversation at their head office in Bangkok about it.

This only applies to K-bank account holders.

I've no idea what other Thai banks require.

If I come in from the US on a Non OA retirement visa, how long can I keep my funds in a US bank before I am required to transfer into a Thai account? If and when I am required, may I just transfer in the 65000 baht per month for the first year, or would I need to do the lump sum? I currently earn decent interest on my account, and would like to maintain that as long as possible. Thanks in advance for your help

I was wondering about the retirement visa..after you have shown you have the necessary 800,000 baht in the bank..does it have to remain in the bank untouched or can you with withdraw some or all of it if needed..I'd be grateful for some advice as I'm interested in retiring in Thailand

Wish I'd discovered this group sooner, as I let my non O-A expire without realizing I could have extended it another year by flying out and in before expiry. My question now is, can I qualify for a non-O retirement visa if I enter Thailand on a 60-day tourist visa and apply for the non-O with 800k in a Thai bank acc? If so, how long does the 800k need to be in there before I apply, and does it matter that it was transferred from an overseas bank a year previously, withdrawn domestically, and then re-deposited?
