Good morning,

So i finally got my non-o retirement visa at Jomtien, based on 800k in the bank.

It says admitted on 10 november 2025 and valid until 7 february 2026.

They said I can apply for the one year extension after the 7th of january.

My last bankbook update is from the 28 october. This is an account i use only for the visa.

At what dates should i do bank moves and updates so the 800k appears correctly for the extension in January. I am afraid to screw it up...

Hope i am clear. Thanks

Does anyone know what documents are required for NON O Visa applying from the uk, Turning into retirement visa within Thailand.

Can someone please clarify...

I am currently on a Business Visa (sorry if wrong terminology) and I want to transition to a retirement visa.

Is it correct that my company cancels my Non-B and I then apply for a Non-O, or something else?

What is the time limit between business visa cancellation and retirement visa application?

Anything else I should know that is unique to this transition?

TIA 🙏

What is the sponsor letter?

Thanks

I'm new to this group, so sorry if this a frequently asked question.

I'm a UK national, 60 years old , living in Thailand for 9 years already, on the standard retirement visa.

My parents, both UK nationals, , 83 & 84 years old, want to come and live with me. They would return to Europe a couple of times a year, but would be essentially living here, at my house, say 10 months each year.

Do they each need to apply for a retirement visa independently of each other, meaning 800k each in 2 separate bank accounts, or is there an option for attaching one as the spouse of the other to a single retirement visa.

Or are there other options available, like a family visa, or something similar.

Thanks for any/all feedback.

Canberra Non-O retirement process time?

Hello all! Looking for advice on how long it takes to process a Non-O retirement visa from the Canberra embassy. Applied on 28 October and the portal has showed “Pending Approval” since 4 November. Our travel date is 3 weeks today and we are trying not to panic 😝

Have sent polite email and voicemail but no response.

Any insights would be appreciated!

Is this information correct to or is it just with Bangkok Bank? I was going to arrive on 7th December on tourist visa, exchange for 90 Day Non-O Visa, open bank account and apply for retirement visa. Is this not now possible?
