Is 70,000 Baht a fair price for a retirement visa agent in Thailand?

Andrew ********

I just did my own retirement Visa 1900baht.

All you need is 800k in the bank and proof of address.

Go to immigration and get the paperwork it will tell you exactly what you need.

Andrew ********

I've been coming and going in and out of Thailand for over 20 years on a regular work rotation and never been asked to show cash however if it worries you just bring $ and relax.

There are no ATM's on the arrival side.
