Conditions are pretty steep

Pensioners and wealthy foreigners must have insurance coverage of at least US$50,000, to cover medical fees, which is valid for at least 10 months or a social security certificate covering their medical expenses while in Thailand or a cash deposit of at least US$100,000 in a domestic or a foreign bank account for 12 months before applying for the visa.

High-income earners must have an average annual income of US$80,000 for the two years prior to applying for the visa.

The foreign specialists must produce an employment contract from a business in Thailand or abroad. They are also required to produce evidence that they have worked in the “targeted industries” for at least 5 of the 10 years prior to applying for apply the visa.

@Robert ******

Stuart's summary is correct. STV is 90+90+90 without having to leave the country

@แกรี่ *******

Apply here. It's easy enough

"Bring" - is that for holiday or permanent?

Apparently the mall management didn't pay the electricity bill so it had to close temporarily. Advise you check with a local group to see if it's reopened yet

It is 200,000 baht and it applies to people who first entered Thailand before 21 October 1998. It is not a rolling date, so getting 20 years up now makes zero difference.

@Craig *******

You mean pay a bribe?

Waste of money. Get the lowdown from people in this group and do it yourself

It won't be the border agent, it will be the airline check-in at your port of origin who requests proof of onward travel
