G’day expat Pom living in Oz, looking to find out, review and move to Thailand in our retirement

Will endeavour to check out all the posts and advice and try not to ask novice questions 😬

Hi All, Renewed my Non O yesterday but had problems at the bank again with them not understanding what's required. Eventually got there but I'm wondering if anyone has swapped their bank recently while using the 800k method for the visa? Would I need to duplicate the 800k in the new account or can I transfer it from old to new, after the 3 months is up? Thanks

hello I'm leaving for Thailand from April 11th to June 28th (78 days) do you think I can go back for a month less than 30 days after. (as of July 23)? Thanks in advance for your answers.

Bonjour. Je pars en thailande du 11 avril au 28 juin (78 jours) pensez vous que je peux y retourner pour un mois moins de 30 jours après.(à partir du 23 juillet)? Merci par avance pour vos réponses.

What is my best visa option folks?

47 year old semi retired self employed landlord from UK. 9 property rentals income more than enough to live from. I manage the properties remotely. Return home on Wednesday and want to know what visa is best to apply for until I turn 50 for retirement visa? Looking to return July was n longest visa possible. I will pay for bronze elite visa if I need to save any hassle but rather not If a better option.

Any suggestions on what bank to go with under the DTV? Do you get a bank card instantly? (I’m only in khon kaen for 1-2 days).

Right now I’m in isan but I’ll probably eventually move to Pattaya. Should I wait and open the account in Pattaya or just do it today in isan?

Hi guys,

I have been on a retirement visa for 4 years then a marriage visa for 3 years,

I then got the 60 day visiting family,

I now have to leave and come back to get the 60 day visa exempt,

I'm in khonkean, would going out at Nong khai and coming back through the same route be my best option?

Im trying to get my female (both single) Thai partner a Visitor Visa to come to Canada, anybody here know of a cite to get information to help me out?

Hello😊My husband and I are in the Cha-Am/Hua Hin area. We did our 60 day tourist visa. My husband has a doctor at Bumrungard hospital. He gave him a medical visa certificate to give him 90 days extension. The immigration office in Cha-Am, where we were told to go because of our address, they said we needed a medical visa from a government hospital. We are going to go to Hua Hin hospital, that is where we were told to go. To try and get that form. After that we would like to apply for the Medical DTV visa. Has anyone had trouble getting a medical extension visa? Also, any advice on getting the medical DTV? We were going to Vietnam. Is that the best location? Thanks in advance 😊

Hi everybody,

I am coming to Chiang Mai soon and I will attend a Thai Lanuage School for an ED visa. I've read it's impossible to start a business whilst on said ED visa. Is that true, or can a visa agent perhaps help with some legal loopholes I am unaware of? Thanks in advance!

Does anyone have a list of docs that they submitted as professional freelancer portfolio that led to the approval of a DTV visa? Im a producer, I go to Asian countries like Korea and search for source material and unique IP to license and bring back to the US to pitch and remake in Hollywood.

Important to note my pay comes from closing deals, I’m not a 9-5 worker and some deposits from a closed deal are months in between.

Here’s what I have but unsure if it’s enough or even what they want;

-bank statements (Wise) that reflect more than the amount of 500,000 THB.

- a 2025, 1099 from one of the clients for a sale with amount of sale

- letters with letterheads from Hollywood producers and companies stating intentions to do business and what kind of business (format business) and with who (Webtoon, Tapas, Netflix, Gordon Ramsey, Teddy Zee, etc)

- Articles from Variety and Deadline that state my move to bring formats from Asia to the US

- my companies articles of organization as an LLC

- LinkedIn profile link

What else should include in this if any? This has been so confusing and was about to pay for a visa attorney to do it but thought I’d ask here first.

Any help would be super appreciated! Thanks! I’ll have to name anyone who helps in my next TV Drama 😂
