How can I obtain a visa for Vietnam, Cambodia, Malaysia, or Singapore as a Portuguese passport holder traveling from Thailand?

Ben *****

I don't think that matters as long as you have your country's passport. Perhaps I'm incorrect though. Which passport do you hold?

The country that issues your passport should have a consulate website for each of these places outlining entry requirements.

How can I start the process for a retirement visa in Thailand while currently on a visa-exempt entry?

Ben *****

I hear you sir, I personally had a very bad experience with immigration which was no fault of my own several years back and have used an agent ever since. The money really doesn't mean anything to me due to the convenience and lack of any stress. But to each their own. 😀

I think that's extremely rare and may have been the result of a questionable visa agency. But I'm certainly not denying that it could happen.

How much cash is required for the Tourist Visa Exemption in Thailand?

Ben *****

Its the equivalent of 20,000 baht in any currency. But, immigration almost always only ask to see money for those who are abusing the system. (e.g. too many visa exemptions in a year, countless back to back covid extensions, etc.)

Can I apply for a Thai tourist visa online if I'm not in my home country?

Ben *****

I could be wrong, but when I applied for an e-visa I remember having to send in my flight itinerary as well (at least for the Los Angeles consulate office). I believe the flights should match whichever country's consulate you're applying from.
