@Peter ********

now yes. in the future? no one knows. everything is getting more strict. be ready to beeing questioned in the future and

show proof of whatever they request. 🤷‍♀️

@Peter ********

they will add it in the system which category you are under. and good luck to show any proof of ongoing soft power activity in the future 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️

Anonymer Teilnehmer 800 retirment visa is not stricter on application or extension. the extension is basically the exact same. i did the process and i have many friends on retirement visa. exactly the same, just a 300k baht difference and local account. ;)

for DTV entrance you need your passport and your printed eVisa or sticker. thats all. same for all the other visa. with the addition that on visa exemption you need an outbound ticket. and dont forget the 20k baht in cash (or equivalent)… thats all the rules there is. everything else is just scrutiny by officers.

btw: i had ED before and never any issues. the people with issues are usualy flagged for whatever reason / sketchy visa, etc.. same with the DTV.

Anonymer Teilnehmer 800 entry requirements are allways official and publicly available.

i asked immigration. they even just told me last week that i can go and come back anytime and get 180 days without any problems.

yes i have all documents. i did the extension as well ;) but as long as no one tells me that i will need a fresh financial proof and work certificate on re-entry, i will not show anything of that and i will not go crazy about it either. ;) there is no such requirement.

or did you see anyone on retirement visa beeing asked to show a bank statement on re-entry? no…

Anonymer Teilnehmer 535 the whole post is pretty stupid i would say. because if these were the entry requirements then they would need to be publicized so that you know what you have to show again. no one will take a guess and get all documents with a fresh date and signature and stamp, etc… i dont think this is true at all. need to show 500k when entering the country? what will be accepted for that? a stamped and signed bank statement? or just showing my bank account on an app? translations? i need to have a new work certificate in my pocket with a fresh signature and stamp from my employer? nothing is clear and this wont happen at all.

that will get interesting for all the people with their sketchy soft power („i only need a 2months course“) visa 😅

@Winston ***********

and then OP went silent 🤣

Anonymer Teilnehmer 535 you need all documents again (new proof) when you extend. plus residency documents. nothing new and easy

@Tae'lur *******

but strangely all the negative posts come from anonymous users. while your point might be valid, there is plenty of old grumpy man and visa agencies that spread false stories and fear ;)

Great 😊 Enjoy your time in Thailand.
