Hello, I am currently doing my research on moving to Thailand. I have been to Thailand a few times throughout my life. I have been "retired" since 30 years old. I get a pension from the US Government.

I am exploring 2 visa options.I do understand that rules constantly change.

DTV visa by way of Muay Thai training.

Question is do I need to re enroll every time I leave/re enter Thailand?

Retirement Visa- Currently I am 47 so would have to wait til I turn 50. I have a constant monthly pension since I was 30 years old. Pension is well over the 65k monthly requirement. I do not wish to open a bank account in Thailand put over $25k (which I do have in my US bank now). Mainly because I have heard that Thai banks have been freezing accounts of foreign holders. And that the money has to be in the account for 2 months prior to getting the visa.

Any advise someone can offer would be greatly appreciated.

Getting tiresome. USA citizen in bkk on a 90

Day non-O visa. Arrived Dec 4, still haven’t been able to open a bank account. Been to immigration twice, about 10 different banks, some of them multiple times. The rules change in the same bank from one day to the next. Bangkok bank told me today I have to file for retirement in my country lol. Another said I must marry a Thai citizen. Another wanted that elusive retirement visa stamp in my passport. K Bank now wants a signed copy of the condo owners ID on top of the lease agreement. Didn’t want that yesterday. Another bank wanted me to pay insurance at 30k baht per year, every year 😂 another wanted proof of residency supplied by my embassy 😏

I’ve supplied passport, non-o visa stamp in passport and paper non-o visa, my Thai phone number tied to my passport, certificate of residency and signed lease agreement. So far no luck anywhere. Any suggestions for a sure fire bank in Bangkok that will accept just these documents? Because so far no bank wants my money.

I will not use an agent, please don’t suggest it. Thanks!

Applied for the non-immigration O 90 day retirement visa on December 4th. Granted today, 23rd December. London.

Go into Thailand on 25th January so my next challenge is to get the retirement extension for a year.

Hello all.

I have an appt in January at Khon Kaen Immigration to extend my current Non-O 90 day retirement visa to a year. The email I received from them seems simple enough. It lists only 3 items, Application form, copy of passport, Evidence of income and/or account deposited in a Thai bank.

Does this seem correct for Khon Kaen? Looking at the nightmares from other immigration places, this is a breeze.

Is the application form the TM47?, it doesn't say.

I will of course bring the TM30 I used for the certificate of residence I used last month for banking and drivers license. Anything else I should bring? KK is an hour and a half away, so going back and forth is a real pain. I did get a passport photo the other day, but it doesn't look like I will need it.

Thanks for the replies.
