@Graham *****

thanks. Shall try later this year

Oh...didn't know i can get re-entry for the free year. Any idea whether the 'free year' will be recognised as long stay visa for application of residency certificate for driving licence renewal?

@Nongnuch *******

I entered on a 1 year retirement visa issued by Thai Embassy in Singapore. Not 90 days. That expires on 1 Dec, so I am wondering how early can I start my renewal process. Can I start it in October or do I have to wait until November

Sorry, I missed an important information. I wanted the long term visa to renew my Thai driving licence, which is expiring in January 2026. Also, I am building a house, expecting completion end of this year. As building permit is in my name, I am thinking of applying for yellow book with that. So, alternatively, does anyone know if I can get the yellow book just based on the building permit or do I need long term visa?

@Andrew *******

Thanks! Will check it out

Get a letter from bank in SG proving deposit of minimum THB800k equivalent. The amount can be in SGD, subject to exchange rates used by the Thai Embassy for calculation of equivalent amount. Refer to Thai Embassy in SG for list of required documents.
