I would rather deposit the amount in the bank to be honest. I was just trying to clarify that point. But do you think if the 60 day visa exempt comes into force you would not need the 90 day initial visa?

I take that if you do your own standard retirement visa then you. Would have to fund your own bank account. Where as using an agent they do that for you? Am I correct in presuming this?. Also if they do increase the 30 day visa exempt to 60 day, surely it would make it easier to apply for a retirement visa upon entry to Thailand without the need to extend your visa initially? Your thoughts would be helpful

Thank You for that. Good information

No it’s a 10 year Long Term Resident Visa for retirees over 50
