Thai Visa Centre are great. If you have to use an agency, go with them.

Back to Japan. Accomplished a lot within 22 days in BKK.

Thai Airways, great service, even on a red eye flight (departs BKK 00:05, just after midnight)

I got my 1 year extension for what is called a Retirement visa. 800K THB in a Thai bank. A half passport page is for it, another half page multi entry.

You may well be right. It was taken as for digital nomands. Appears, it is a glorified tourist visa.

21 days in Bangkok. On non-immigrant 90 days.

What I have achieved?

Retirement visa 1 year in my passport, kicks in 25. July 2025 until 25. July 2026. Immigration knew, from my return ticket that I am leaving Thai today (24. July 2025).

Bank account, ATM card, bank passbook.

Yellow book, coming in 30 days from today.
