I am looking at coming ti Thailand for 4 months,is there any visa that would cover this?

I have to step outside of my zone of comfort. Only because this is a little outside of my comfort zone. If there is anybody that's able to advise me with what's more feasible. Please reach out to me on messenger. I have less than 60 days to stay the course with my original plan. Or do I have to alternate between the two.

Here's the issue. I am all set for my retirement/move to Thailand late August, early September. The only thing I have left is to apply for my retirement. I recently rearranged my first class flight from Thailand to the Philippines. From the Philippines then to Thailand. Saving me a couple thousand dollars. Now here is my issue and why I need help. The cost of the currency exchange and how hard of a is it going to hit me. My goal is Thailand. I should consider staying in the Philippines because of the what is happening with the US dollar. I am struggling with this decision. Apologize for the lengthy post. Hopefully there is somebody with some sound advice. Thanks

Urgent News From The Navit Yochin Chanthaburi Special Task Force, Tab Thap Thai, Thana Ao Go Hot Springs, Chanthaburi Province

🚫 Thai-Cambodia Border Closed in Chanthaburi

Both the Ban Laem and Ban Phakkat checkpoints in Chanthaburi province are now closed - this includes the walking route from Ban Laem to Daung Lem in Cambodia.

This shutdown is based on orders from the Thai Immigration Bureau due to legal issues and the growing concern over illegal border crossing services (especially those used for visa runs).

These points have long been a loophole for people trying to "reset" their stay in Thailand.

• What This Means:

No more border runs via Chanthaburi.

If you’re using the “walk in, walk out” method to extend your stay - it’s over for now.

This affects both Thai nationals and foreign tourists.

• Alternative?

At this moment, only a few checkpoints in Laos (like Nong Khai) remain open - but even they’ve gotten stricter lately. Be warned.

We strongly advise planning ahead. Don't rely on land border runs. Stay legal - explore other visa options instead.

i was looking at the requirements for a retirement visa are these options still the norm or has it reverted to the balance option only. thanks all.

**Financial Requirements:

Option 1:** Have a deposit of at least 800,000 THB in a Thai bank account for at least two months before applying.

Option 2: Show a monthly income (including pension) of at least 65,000 THB.

Option 3: A combination of bank deposit and annual income totaling 800,000 THB.

Is there a way to buy time before investing in all this Retirement Visa plan and or This "Non O" , in other words, if a single person on a very tight budget should want to live in Thailand, what would be most economical, just to get established with a home base ? Thank you

Hello👋🏻 , m planning my first ever trip to thailand where i would preferably stay for a year at least as a remote worker ( I don’t make 2700$/month for a DTV ) , should i just go visa free for 90 days then leave and get a 90 visa for a total of 6 months ? Is there any better options ? I heard people take muai thai classes for a full year visa. Any help would be much appreciated 🙏🏻

Hello everyone,

I’m currently in Thailand and working remotely in the field of web development (website creation and digital services). My work is entirely online.

I’ve heard about the DTV (Digital Nomad Visa) and I’m wondering if it would be a suitable option for someone in my situation, a remote worker.

Has anyone here applied for it recently? What are the pros and cons, and is it worth considering compared to other visa options?

Any advice or shared experience would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

If I file for an extension on a non-immigrant O visa, single entry, and it's not granted, what is my best option to stay in Thailand? Is there a way to leave and return quickly?

What visa do i apply for if i want to stay 3-4 months from Australia?

Thank you

Hello all! We are looking for people in a similar situation. Both my wife and I collect pension, roughly 284,000 THB per month combined, not including outside sources of income. We started working with Bangkok Buddy as a visa / travel agent, but after hours of research into the subject we are lost.

Quick bio of our situation, we are both U.S. Military Veterans with 3 children, we would like to put them in an international school, however we must figure out our visa situation before applying. Another thought that may be important to take into consideration with Visas, (having a Thai employee, aka Nanny). We are both in our 20’s so we don’t hit that 50yr mark quite yet lol.

For the expats in similar situations, did you stick to Thailand or move from country to country every 90 days? Please help us navigate this 🙏🏻 Thanks ya’ll!
