UK national married to Thai.

wishing for some advice on which way to go initially …Tourist visa, Retirement or Marriage visa? I/we intend to reside in Thailand for just short of 6 months with a view to becoming more permanent later. Of course I would rather spend less time dealing with acquisition of visas as I come and go (staying longer later) mindful too of tax status.

What are my best most sensible options to consider if I have provided you enough info.

P.s seasoning of any funds is no issue as I have an existing primed bank account

Thanks for adding me to the group!

Please go gentle on us - I’m looking to purchase a resale elite visa with longer than 20 year validity. Hoping that one of you may have a couple of them to sell. Please DM me. Many thanks!

LTR-T (work from Thailand) visa question:

If you were to quit or lose a job while on this visa, does this affect your visa status? I'm assuming that once you obtain the visa, you're able to stay in Thailand for the vlfive years even if you don't have a job temporarily, and only have to requalify after 5 years.

Is that correct?
