Myself and my wife both over 50 retired and both uk citizens looking who intend to apply for a Thai non -o visa , should we apply jointly or individually ?
If we applied together can we have a joint bank account like we do in the uk?
As I understand it if we apply individually we would both need to deposit 800 k in an account which we could do but looking for advice as to what’s easiest route to go .

Hi everyone I’m new to the group . I had two questions . Firstly I’m from USA living in Mexico currently ….how does that work in regards to the location and getting the dtv visa when it says current location proof etc . Also does anyone know if a tummy tuck / liposuction or like a “mommy makeover” of sorts would qualify for the medical option to get the visa . I’m just curious because I see different scenarios here where people are getting denied and I would like some insight . Thank you so much 💙
We are in the process of moving to Retire on Koh Samui but have to be there by first week of April for Our Son's Wedding. We also sold our property but need to wait for registration before funds for the sale would be paid into our local (South African Bank.) so we will not have sufficient time to season the required funds before applying for Long term non O .(1 year) in SA.
It seems to leave us with the option of METV 's for both of us and then to open bank account ,transfer the required monies and then apply for Long term stay in Thailand after required 2 month period.
Problem here is that I saw from previous posts that Farangs can not open a Bank account using a METV?
Please advise best course of action. Thanks in advance.
Hi, can someone who knows for sure whether or not people on the 60 days covid extension have to also do the 90 days report ( TM47) ? I was not asked to do this when I was at Samui Immigration for my extension however, my friends here on Koh Phangan at the new Immigration office here were told that they had to do it. This is very confusing and seems redundant as we would be essentially be coming back in 60 days anyway to apply for another extension ( if still allowed). Clarification would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
Hi everyone. I would like some advice about the COE that is needed to fly back into Thailand. One of the requirements is to have $100000 worth of insurance medical cover. Could someone explain to me what that means exactly. Is there a way to get it in Thailand? If so , where can I?
