What are the requirements for maintaining the 800K baht for a retirement visa in Thailand regarding monthly deposits?

Can a Non Immigrant OA visa holder convert to a Non Immigrant O visa in Thailand without insurance?

John ********

I have just converted to O visa, because the insurance I had came with so many exemptions as to be useless, & expensive. Better to keep the money to pay for emergencies.

What is the process for switching from an O-A to an O Retirement visa in Thailand?

John ********

I’m going through the same process in Chiang Mai. I just got back on visa exempt, is there a minimum waiting period before I can apply for the non-O? Also, do I need full banking details for the initial application (I already have 800k in the bank for the required period)?

Is the TM30 required for domestic travel when on retirement extension in Thailand?

John ********

If you’re doing a 90day report online you will need an up to date tm30. I was rejected for one night in a hotel in Chiangmai (I live in Chiangmai) 3 years ago. The local immigration office said the new stricter rules came from Bangkok. Renewing TM 30 was easy though- just showed my old one & passport, no landlord needed.
