ORIGINAL POSTER
Hi everyone. Thank you Admin for letting me in.

Forgive this question as I'm sure it's been asked a million times but:

I am from the UK want to retire to Thailand and am in a long-term relationship with my Thai girlfriend.

I have been to Thailand 6 times over the past 2 years and now wish to spend summers in the UK and winters in Thailand.

I want to apply for a Non-Immigrant O-X Multi-Entry (5+5) Visa and qualify in all eligibility except the Thai bank account (my 3m bht is waiting to be deposited).

To get the Thai bank account I need a visa (can't open one with a tourist visa).

Catch 22!!

What do I do?
