Should I have applied for an eVisa or a Non-O visa as a first-time retiree in Thailand?

Greg ********

Anonymous participant Just to add one of the main reasons for retirees to get the 90 day O before arriving is to open a bank account. Then you deposit 800k for 2 months and apply for the 12 months O extension based upon retirement at a local Immigration Office.

What should I know about applying for a medical treatment visa (DTV) in Thailand from Cambodia?

Greg ********

Agree. A bit of acupuncture and a testosterone injection seem a bit light for a 5 year visa. You can get the injection in 2 minutes in the pharmacy where you buy to meds. Might get lucky in PP as I do not think many applying there at the moment.
