thanks Tod, always superfast replies and spot on.

Tod, at some time, will you be providing the same detailed info with regards to the Non Immigrant 'O' Visa? For long stay multi entry.

How do I make an application for a "Non-Immigrant Type O (Retirement (pensioner aged 50 or above with a state pension who wants to stay in Thailand for no longer than 90 days) - single entry only)"???

The only option in the E-Visa Application process on the Thai eVisa website is for a Tourist Visa (TR). I have double-checked that all my personal details have been correctly entered.

In order to take this option: "You could transfer in to the country 800K baht and then get a Non-O visa and year extension based on being over 50.", would the funds not need to be in a Thai Bank Account at least 2 months prior to making the application? I only managed to open a Thai bank account yesterday, although my personal UK Bank Account shows sufficient funds but only from 14th August.

This is not an option as I am separated from my Thai wife and she will not assist with the following requirements:

5. A copy of Thai house registration of spouse/parent or child

6. A copy of Thai ID card of spouse/parent

7. A copy of passport of spouse/parent

@Benjamin *****
no, what I am saying is that I cannot rely on my Thai wife, so a family visit visa is out.

Benjamin Hays perhaps you need re-read what I've said. Thanks for correcting me on the visa exempt, now updated my reply.
