What is the procedure for switching from a Non-Immigrant OA to a Non-Immigrant O visa in Thailand?

Daniel *******

If you've lived here multiple years on the O-A extension and the 800k has been banked the whole time, is it necessary to show proof that it's been transferred internationally when applying for the non-O retirement visa?

What are the best health insurance options for retirees in Thailand, especially for those over 65?

Daniel *******

First of all, DON’T get your visa in the States before you come. Come in on a stamped passport after having researched the requirements for a non-O “retirement” visa. Once here, you can set up whatever health care requirements you need without any health insurance requirements from immigration after you get your visa.
