how about if I want to change from OA retirement to O retirement? I will have to leave the country and come back after the visa expires right?

Apply O retirement during my visa exempt period.

I already have THB800,000k in the bank.

Since we’ve been staying here for 2 years do I still need to show funds transferred from a foreign account?

I know this is not a tax profession site, but if on an OA retirement visa, how do taxes on my US pension work? Tips? Experience? TIA

Hello.

Can you tell me if the insurance requirements for the OA retirement visa has changed yet, our renewal is due mid July

Hi, my wife and I are about to apply for our OA retirement visa and saw that we have to do individual applications. Does this mean we have to each have THB800,000 in separate bank accounts or does one deposit of THB800,000 into a joint bank account meet to requirement for both of us?

hello, admin group and everybody, happy lunar new year !

my OA 1 yr retirement visa that I applied in my home city expired in March 2023 and I was given a 1 year entry stamp till March 2024 when I re entered bkk in March 2023.

I am planning to apply for a 1 year extension of my OA retirement visa in bkk in the last week of February. Thanks to the previous posts here, I roughly know the documents needed for the application but I got a few questions and I hope to ask for advice.

1) I know a bank letter is needed but how should the letter be dated in order to fit the application ?

2) do I hv to leave my passport there and about how long can I get it back with a successful application ?

3) could I apply for the multiple entry visa at the same time as I apply for the retirement visa?

4) is there a form I have to fill in for the retirement visa? could I hv the link please ?

thank you for your time.

Hello and first thank-you for all the team working to support this site .. great work!

My question, I am currently on an OA retirement visa extension ( expires Aug 24). I am currently living on Koh Samui but soon will be moving full time up north and so to another province . Am I correct in saying I only have to ensure a new TM30 address is filed ASAP. I do not need to inform Samui immigration locally of my departure ?

Thanks for the support. Mark

Hi everyone!

My fiancé and I have been living in Thailand for almost 3 years now. My fiancé is on OA retirement visa and he has to pay for health insurance as part of OA visa requirements. We have been advised to leave the country and apply for a new visa type to avoid health insurance. We aren’t sure what type of visa that my fiancé should apply for. Do we need to make an appointment with the Thai Embassy? How long does it take for visa approval? All advices would be much appreciated. Thank you so much 🙏🏼

I Have a Thai bank account with over 800,000 thai baht. Can I apply for the OA retirement visa when I enter Thailand assuming I have health insurance already?

Hi. I'm on a 1 year extension based on being married to my husband on OA Retirement visa. I need to get a multiple re-entry permit.

Do I have to apply in person or can my husband do it for me?

Just need confirmation on a couple items. Ive been living in Thailand since 2019. Currently on an OA Retirement VISA extension. The original OA was issued in the US and was a multi-entry VISA. My goal is to fly to Da Nang, Vietnam and return to Bangkok a couple days later as VISA exempt and then apply for an O VISA in country.

When I fly out of Thailand will my current VISA be cancelled? I think it will if I don't purchase a re-entry permit but now I'm not sure if the multi-entry original VISA changes that in any way.

When I come back to Bangkok as VISA exempt, will that require me to have an outbound flight booked?

Thanks in advance.
