I am sorry to keep asking questions about this but I want to be sure I have the correct information. I am currently in Thailand on the Non-O marriage visa, but I need to change it to the Non-O retirement due to a mistake I made. After checking the relevant websites, visiting immigration here in Korat, and emailing with a visa agent it seems to me the easiest way to do this is to go to Cambodia and then re-enter as a tourist with my US passport.

Please bear in mind the required funds are not an issue. All other paperwork is in order.

My question is this; if I do that can I then apply for the Non-O retirement visa from WITHIN Thailand, or does that need to be done while in Cambodia? Obviously if I do that while in Cambodia I will then need to stay there for the 10 days or so it takes to get approval for the visa. Which isn’t great but it’s easier than any alternative I can see.

Thanks as always for your assistance.

After we finish the 5 years can we extend again? (Really sorry if this has been covered)

I won’t have many connections without th the UK at this stage so wondered how that worked?

On the one hand agents say border runs by land are unlimited since July 2024, on the other hand almost everyone else says border runs by plane are unlimited. Does anyone know the truth?

Question that I haven't seen answered...

After the 5 years, does anyone know if we can reapply for another DTV?

Has the government ever canceled a visa option?

Is there a likely hood this could happen with the DTV?

It looks like DTV is worth considering as an alternative long-term visa that can be renewed every 180 days (or 6 months) and its requirements seem easier than retirement visa to meet - do you think so?

Once you’ve got your DTV, do you have to continue to keep 500000 baht in the bank/income? Or are finances checked for visa application only?
