Thank you everyone for your feedback, it’s very helpful. I see that Thailand has an e-visa site to apply online, wondering if anyone has experience with it? I am currently traveling in Asia and will not be back in the US for a while, does anyone know if I could apply from a different country? I will be in Indonesia for the next month or two and wondering if I can apply from there as well as provide a health check up from a country other than my home country to meet one of the requirements online?
wow this is all good information, I was thinking on entering Thailand on a tourist visa and applying for a non-immigrant OA retirement visa. At the immigration office, I would be making the 800k deposit. Is the process the same? Does the deposit need to be seasoned for 2 months before applying? Could I get multiple entry? And the 90 day reporting, must that be in person?
do they require you to show a yearly lease agreement? I know they don’t have a minimum stay requirement but curious to know if they requested a primary address in Thailand?
