Greetings from Poland 😀

We are a retired couple in our 60s.

We plan to spend five months in Thailand each year.

We have paid for our hotel and purchased our plane tickets.

The Thai Embassy in Poland advises that all visa applicants must submit their applications online via thaievisa.go.th.

What type of visa do you recommend for regular, five-month visits to Thailand? Arrival in Thailand in October, departure in March.

I would like to complete all the formalities before departing for Thailand.

I would be very grateful for any help and support 😀🙏

LTR retiree visa: hey all, we are coming as a family of three as our son will attend international school in Bangkok. We have the student/guardian visa option, but wanted to explore LTR so a couple of questions. 1. Is the US$80k requirement per person or in total for a family? For example, could I combine my investment income with my wife's to get $80k? Or would we need $160k+? 2. Are visa fees per person or total? 50k, 100k, or 150k for the three of us? In our circumstances, would it be best to use an agent (currently in Philippines). Thanks for any response.

I’ll likely have to change my retiree visa from retiree to DTV next year because I had to dip into my 800k to take care of an emergent need.

Do I have to go back to the USA to file the DTV e-visa or can I do it closer to Thailand, say in Vietnam?

I have an LLC in the states so I can restart my subcontracting for the DTV. Thoughts?

Visa information required please.

My husband and I are UK citizens and travel to Thailand frequently as our son and granddaughter live there. Our son stays on a work visa and our granddaughter holds both a Thai and British passport.

When the ability to enter for 60 days came into effect with the option to extend to 90 days, my husband and I booked flights.

October - November for 49 days, we then booked flights December - March 89 days. We have now found out we can only stay a maximum of 90 days on a tourist visa over 6 month period.

We are both retired aged over 60 years old, is there another visa we can apply for before we consider changing our flights.

Thank you.

Hi everyone,

Thanks for accepting me in the group.

Like many of you I'm also retired, I plan to apply for a three month retiree visa before I come to Thai, once I'm here I would like to have a multiple entry retiree visa, for one or better more years. Can you tell me what steps I have to take to achieve it and how much cost ? Unfortunately I'm not a millionaire. Thx.

For your information Monday July 22nd and Monday July 29th are public holidays so immigration offices will be closed.

This usually means that on the following Tuesday many offices will be super busy. Avoid going then if you can.

Land borders and airports are not affected by these closures.

Plan accordingly.

Hi,

I‘m in Thailand for a little bit more than 5 months with a non-immigrant O retiree Visa that initially grants 90 days.

Now I‘m thinking about extension of stay.

My question is: what types of income will they accept?

Private pension

Rental income

Salary as it is a Sabbaticcal

Best regards

Uwe
