@Tim ****************

the Non-O retirement 1 year extension requires 800k in the bank for 2 months prior to applying and 3 months after being given and to not drop below 400k for the remainder of the extension. With it being back up to 800k 2 months prior to applying for your next extension.

ขอบคุณครับ (khobkhunkhrab) ค = kh ร = r ั = a บ = b but the บ is pronounced with more of a p sound when used with khrab (sounds more like crap than crab)

@Paul *********

you can't buy it like gold, diamond etc, the new reserved elite visa is by invitation from elite visa only and it's limited to 100 people per year and you can only apply if you have been invited to apply by them.

Reserved elite membership and the original elite life-time membership can be transferred to another person one time for a cost. Not sure about the original but the reserve is 20%

Declan **********

Nope, only one extension per 30 day visa exemption.

Also สวัสดีครับ = sawadee khrab (pronouced as khrap) not sawadeecup. ครับ is used at the end of a sentence to be polite/ or to show acknowledge (when used by itself)
