Do you need to maintain 800,000 baht in your account if you have a monthly income of 65,000 baht for a Thai retirement visa?

@Cole **********

I'm aware of that. Perhaps you should be addressing this to the OP. All I did was inform the OP of the 65k/month criteria.

Can I check my bags through from Chiang Mai to Tokyo, and do I need to go through immigration in Bangkok?

Bobby ********

You simply fly domestic from CM to Bangkok, so you're free to roam when you get to Bangkok. BTW, you don't go through customs leaving Thailand, only entering.

@Jeffrey ********

Once you've cleared immigration you're "sterile" so to speak so cannot leave the "system" so have to stay in transit in Bangkok. If you want to leave the airport at Bangkok, the first leg of the journey remains domestic so you don't clear immigration until Bangkok. So what has happened in the past to you is correct

What are the expected costs for health insurance in Thailand when considering long-term stays and family coverage?

Bobby ********

As

says it's too subjective. There's no one company which would suit everyone. Suggest you seek out Robert Jackson who's a broker for all the main companies and discuss your situation and requirements with him

Why do I need to pay for a re-entry permit when I have a retirement visa in Thailand?

Bobby ********

That's nothing to do with a re-entry permit. The 300 baht tax is simply Thai government having a laugh watching the Cheap Charlies go into meltdown 🤣
