Hi 🙂 can anyone give me some advice?

I’ve been asked for 3 months bank statements (I initially supplied a closing balance only) and my payslips.

I had a large one off payment which contributed to me having the 500,000 baht within the last month. Am I likely to be declined because I haven’t had the required funds in my bank for 3 months? Can I explain this with a letter saying it’s a gift?

Thanks 🙂

Just been approved from Vientiane Laos. AMA, happy to help. I did Muay Thai soft core Visa. Happy to help anyone who needs clarification.

One thing I would recommend… when I paid for my Muay Thai course I actually had money I previously transferred to my girlfriend and she scan payed at the gym. They didn’t like that. I would recommend screenshooting your payment from you to the gym and bringing that with you as well as the receipt from the gym with the gym stamp ofcourse branded on it. Hope that tip helps. I would a bit nervous they would fail me for this

Hello, I need your advice, I would like to inquire about the visa requirements for my upcoming trip to Thailand. I have a European citizen.

I previously stayed in Thailand from January 2025 to May 2025, and again from July 2025 to October 2025. I am now planning to return to Thailand in January to visit with my Thai wife.

Could you kindly advise whether I am eligible to travel to Thailand at any time under visa exemption, or if I am required to apply for a visa in advance since i stayed more than 230 days this year. Thank you for your time.

Thinking of waiting til Thursday if it doesnt approve he will have to go in.

Hi,

I have a question regarding the 12 month non-O retirement visa extension. My 2 month bank deposit period coincides with my passport stamp in the new year. Can I go into Div 1 in Bangkok before this date to get the extension? i.e. before the end of the 2 month period?

Hi just a question if I apply for a non o visa and it hasn't gone through and flights booked come in on a tourist visa , and the non o comes through while in Thai , do I have to do a boarder run ? No bank account yet ,

Hi guys,

Is it possible to get a retirement visa while currently in the country on a tourist visa, without having a Non-O or a Thai bank account? Is the only option in this case unfortunately to leave the country and apply for the Non-O abroad?

I am an American citizen that holds a retirement visa in Thailand. My visa was issued from one of the immigration offices in Chiang Mai.

Do I have to renew it from this same office in CM or can I renew from another office?

I ask because my wife and I would like to visit some of the beaches around the time I will need to renew.

Thanks all!

For husband and wife ( both above 50 )applying for retirement visa. Do we have to deposit 800k each in the bank account or 800 k in total ?

You may have read my previous post about entry into Thailand. So now had time to process and visit immigration.

Next move.

The IO at the airport said get a wife visa which I believe is an O visa. This is problematic as I will not have 800,000 in for two months, more like two weeks.

The IO at my local office confirmed this but mentioned 400,000 but think this is an O-A visa which I do not want.

Now the METV. This would be perfect and I can meet all the requirements. I guess I would need to leave Thailand to apply. But would having a Thai wife prevent this.?

Basically an METV would allow me to leave and renter Thailand to give me 150 days I need

To apply for an METV, if required to leave Thailand, would Vietnam be OK.

Finally thoughts on visiting a visa agent. Would it help.

Thanks in advance
