Any advice on which Visa to obtain for a single retired person who wish to stay in Thailand for 1 year with options to extend or travel to neighbouring countries.
Here is a laugh for you all as we approach the weekend. I know, opening up for the trolls, but as low as I now feel, it won't matter.
Had everything lined up for the DTV, waiting for stocks/investment release for the last piece of the jigsaw. Booked ready for the weekend in time for 30 day extension to finish. Email just arrived and due to various reasons the funds cannot be released for another year. I will have to reconsider my options
Good luck everyone. Maybe I will rejoin in a year... 😄 👋
Hi Guys! Anyone here who done extension of 180 days in Thailand without leaving the country recently? My first 180 days on that visa is about to end. So I wonder what is required to extend it here in Thailand? Do I have to update dates on the employment letter? I heard that they are asking for Thai bank account statement? Is it true? Thank you!
I have got DTV visa since December 2024 and stay at Chiangmai over 5 months already. I have to extend/ renew another 180 days to stay at Thailand and I consider to go Tachileik which I have to cross border line to Myanmar and re-enter. So is there any one has experience for it and Thailand immigration at Tachileik border has capacity to extend visa for another 180 days by stamp in there? Would you please kindly advise?
What routes have people taking to obtain this visa?
I'm thinking of the Muay Thai fighting gym route but I'm interested what else there is and what others have done
Being honest, I don't know if I could sustain that much training for five years
But I'm also confused about the five years. Can you stay ALL five years or do you have to leave for a fixed amount of time - like stay 180 days and leave 180 days before returning or can you return after 1 day, 30 days what ever?
I'm new to this so all and any info is helpful. Thanks!
I’m getting concerned as next week there are a lot of public holidays (Thai & Cambodian), my visa will expire and I’ll miss the flight back to Thailand and my appointment for surgery. Any advice would be appreciated.

Hi All, I'm on a Non O Retirement visa extension out of Chiang Mai. I'm thinking of moving to Pattaya. Can I do my next annual extension down there, or do I have to start afresh with a totally new Visa from there?
There are two types one is for university study and the one I am giving information on is "Soft Power Education" this includes thai boxing language and such
There is two things to this. The soft power education visa is permission from the Educational Ministry to learn for one year.
What you get from immigration is a 3 month stamp that you have to extend with fee 1900 baht ( 50 USD ) also ontop of this you still have to check in every 90 days which can be done on an app on your phone or in-person at immigration office.
If you miss extension or have to leave for any reason and you mis the time frame to extend you have to start back over and the educational visa is 20,000 baht .. ( 500 )
I just did this today and was given full explanation by the school doing my visa.
Hope this helps someone else 🙏 and I was explained that bank accounts are not given for these soft power education or hard to get just FYI
