It's not required if you don't interact with that section.

We process many cases through the online portal and have noticed email issues on their end over the past two weeks. It’s possible they tried to contact you, but the message didn’t go through.

We recommend reaching out to them directly to avoid delays, as they may be waiting on a response from you without realizing the email failed.

Also, which embassy did you apply through?

Once you're in Thailand, you can open a local bank account, which will make future assistance from any agency much more affordable.

While we cannot comment on the agency you mentioned, there are many reputable agents in Thailand, including ourselves.

We can assist you in Udon Thani remotely via EMS, so there is no need to travel to Pattaya.

While visiting Pattaya in person may offer cheaper options, if you want the smoothest and most convenient process, we can take care of everything for you.

Please note, if you do not yet have a Thai bank account, you would need to be physically present to open one.

The best approach is to apply for your Non-O Retirement Visa before arriving in Thailand, then open a bank account based on that. If you decide to use an agent later, your costs will be much lower.

We provide service in every province of Thailand, meaning you can continue using the same agent even if you move. If a client chooses to apply on their own, we assist them with obtaining a TM30 in the relevant province to support their application.

Our yearly extension fee has also been reduced over the past two years and is now just ฿14,000 per year.

We’re sorry if you previously used an agency that was unable to offer you proper assistance. A trustworthy agency will never mislead you into thinking you cannot apply on your own; they will guide and support you throughout the process.

Yes, we have many clients which use us in Lamphun.

If you wish to switch to not using an agency you simply need to file a TM30, which is something we also can assist with.
