Straight to the point

You need a permanent residence yours or your wife(if married) and visa.Kasikorn Bank should accommodate you.No insurance needed decline if Bank suggests.

When you find your list,make another one telling you where you put.Easy for you next time.lol

Note,the Baht 800:000 will need to be in a Thai Bank Account min 2 months prior to application.You seriously need to figure that out 1st.

As long as you have a residential address matching your retirement visa,it should not be an issue.

@Rancy ******

Depends on your flight departure,the Embassy visa site give a required 5-15 days my own experience has taken 5-6 weeks Do your check ASAP.

@David *****

5-15 days? The last 2 yrs ,my applications were sent to the Ottawa Canada Thailand Embassy E-Visa website 5-6 weeks prior to my flight departure.Both time I had to cancel and rebook.It need much improvement .The last time the Embassy called me at home to ask Re the date of departure,I informed the caller that I had cancelled the day prior due to not yet approved/received E-Visa,she said we are just now looking at your application (That told me they had totally F—-ed up.Application had been sent 5-6 weeks prior,hence the phone call.(They NEVER contact you at all (only email)unless other info required.When I stated this is the second yr this has happened She said ‘well’ just book another flight.Cost me $600:00 extra each yr to cancel/rebook.
