Please correct me if I'm wrong, but I was under the impression that one of the requirements for the Non-O retirement visa is having 800k baht in a Thai bank account under the applicant's name. If she doesn't have a bank account, how would she be able to obtain the retirement visa?

So true! When we traveled to Thailand last year, we bought IMG Patriot travel insurance and confirmed that Bangkok Hospital accepted it. Unfortunately, my daughter had an accident in Phuket, and we rushed her to Bangkok Hospital Phuket. To our surprise, they said they didn’t accept the insurance. We had to pay everything upfront and ended up claiming it back through our regular Kaiser insurance. IMG Patriot was no help at all—they just kept asking for documents instead of honoring the coverage.

Are they going to tax on that 800k Baht?
