Question about Non-O Retirement Extension in Thailand 🙏

Hi everyone,

I’m on a Non-O Retirement Visa (issued in Vietnam) and getting ready for my 1-year extension at Immigration Krabi.

I keep hearing different information, so I want to double-check a few things.

As far as I know, for the Non-O extension you only need:

✔️ 800,000 THB in a Thai bank account (seasoned 2 months)

✔️ Bank letter (same day)

✔️ Updated bank book

✔️ Passport + copies

✔️ TM7 form

✔️ TM30

✔️ Rental contract (valid on the day of extension)

✔️ ID card + house book copy from landlord

✔️ Fee 1,900 THB

So my questions are:

👉 1. Do I need any health insurance for the Non-O extension?

From what I understand, insurance is only required for the Non-OA visa.

👉 2. Do I need a 1-year rental contract?

My contract is valid but not for a full year — is that OK for the extension?

If anyone has recent experience in Krabi or anywhere in Thailand with the Non-O Retirement extension, your feedback would really help.

Thank you so much! 🙏😊

Hi all. Regarding Non-O visa application, one of the requirements, do I need a 12 month rental lease or would a 6 month lease be ok?

Thanks

Hi, I'm looking for a little help.

I arrived on November 2nd and I'm on my last 10 days of my non o visa and need to extend this for a year based on marriage. I know of having to have 400k in my bank account, copy of marriage certificate, wifes ID, my passport and photos of myself and my wife at our rented property. Can someone please let me know of the other documents I will need?

Many thanks.
