What are the financial requirements for a retirement visa extension in Thailand?

Mikkel *******

its OR a monthly income of 65.000, OR 800k banked for 3 months.. Not both.. As for the advice to pay 20k for some shady way to get extension, I would be wary of doing that, as they are cracking down on that kind of business, hard..

It doesn't matter how you cross the border as long as you get stamped out of Thailand, in and out of another country and in to Thailand again.

Is it acceptable to enter Thailand on a 30-day exemption, extend it, and then obtain a tourist visa while showing proof of funds via bank statements?

Mikkel *******

Seems crazy to exchange two times, and loose money on exchange rates and fees two times.. Just take your ZAR with you and exchange in the arrival airport to baht..

Is it necessary to leave Thailand to apply for a 90-day Non-O visa from a tourist visa?

Mikkel *******

Maybe depends on the particular immigration office. I had a friend coming in on a METV last winter, and got a years extension based on being over 50 directly from that in the local immigration office.

should not matter if its an old passport number, if you wound up in an accident they could ID you through it anyway and contact embassy or what not.
