Was recently approved for the LTR visa( Pensioner). Took approximately 2.5 months from application to approval. I elected to process the application myself , as fairly easy to do , albeit a lot of paper. I provided two years of bank statements to support passive income, outside of my pension income which was supported by income tax documents. Be aware though you require to have medical insurance (Thai) in place as part of the application and needs to cover up to at least 10 months while in Thailand.

I elected to go the LTR route as while presently hold the Elite visa, it expires next year and felt the amount required to renew wasn’t justified, or the “benefits” of the elite visa didn’t make sense for me.

Hi everyone , I have applied for the new 10 year evisa and it's asking for a letter of acknowledgement , getting so confused as I thought this was for them to give after the application was considered ,if so where do I get one from , the visa is ltr pensioner TIA

Is there an agent with experience in getting a pensioner LTR organized for a Dubai resident?

Hi All

My wealthy pensioner LTR visa under BOI was rejected after almost 4 months of waiting. All supporting documents were provided. I am eligible for sure but now they have decided I don’t qualify. I called to ask them the reason and I was told even they don’t know as it was rejected by the Immigration. This makes no sense, and I am quite lost at this point. I had applied online by myself as it seemed straightforward.

Anyone has had a similar experience? Can I reapply?

I have a doubt about pensioner visa. Should 800000 baths be deposited for three months? And the duration of the visa is one year? To renew it I have to do the same process with the money... every month for the same amount?

Tengo una duda con respecto a la visa para jubilados. Los 800000 baths deben depositarse por tres meses? Y la duración de la visa es un año? Para renovarla debo hacer el mismo proceso con el dinero… cada mes por la misma cantidad?

Can someone recommend an insurance agent who can arrange the medical insurance coverage necessary for the LTR visa?

I’ve seen references to both a “long term residence” visa and a “long term retirement” visa. Are these the same thing?

Can O show 90 days for pensioners be extended with another 30 days of immigration in TH? What are the conditions in that case?

Kan O visa 90 dagar för pensionärer förlängas med ytterligare 30 dgr av immigration i TH? Vilka är villkoren i så fall?

Hi all. I heard about a 20 year visa for 1 million baht. Elite visa. Anyone have experience to share please 🙏. Thank you.

Hello, am considering a LTR Pensioner Visa. The rules on the BOI website state personal income is “unearned income, such as a pension, rental, capital gain etc” For me the important statement on the website is : Earned income such as salary will not be considered as eligible income for LTR Pensioners application.

As a newly retired person, salary has only just ceased. My Unearned Income will shortly commence, satisfying the BOI requirements. It seems the BOI need at least a 2 year history.

What I’m unclear about is my history of salary does not count so I can’t cite that, but sufficient unearned income will kick in in a couple of weeks time.

Should I wait two years, then apply ( assuming that visa is still available then) or apply now with the proof of my new form of income? Everything else is ok, it’s just that Unearned vs Salary mystery. I can’t be the first person to be a newly retired person with a new income stream! I’m attracted to the LTR as it seems simple, multi entry, could potentially work, not so much reporting.

Thanks for your advice.
