Cheow Larn lake floating huts at Khao Sok! Panvaree/The Greenery! It's an "off the grid" experience. Awesome though!

Do you need a return ticket to enter Thailand or can you show onward travel instead?

Deanna *******

We would purchase a "throw away ticket" to Singapore or Malaysia, and just didn't use it.

But yes. You do need to show onward travel.

What are the requirements for applying for a Non-O retirement visa in Thailand regarding rental receipts?

Deanna *******

Same day! Sometimes it might take until the next day.

However .... do not wait. Do it a week or two early in case they want more docs.

Never had that experience in the whole 6 plus yrs we've been here. They do ask for a house rental contract though, and maybe a TM30, which requires copy of housebook, landlord's ID and phone number.

What are the challenges and tips for opening a bank account in Thailand on a tourist visa?

Deanna *******

We went to Kasikorn at the big Tesco on Koh Samui in Lamai. We were on TV as well, trying to get the retirement visa.

If you're in a high tourist location your chances are better.

My Mom had success with the yellow bank. Krungsri on Samui.

Deanna *******

Yep. We've heard that before. What visa are you on?

We had a catch 22. You need a bank account to get a retirement visa, but some of the banks said we need a retirement visa or work permit to get a bank account.

Very frustrating. We finally went to a branch of Kasikorn that would do it for us.

Deanna *******

Each branch is different. You can go to one Kasikorn and they say no, while a Kasikorn down the street will say yes. All the banks here do this.

Pro tip: Be sure to request online banking, or otherwise you probably won't get it.
