What are the requirements for applying for a Non-O 'Retirement visa' at Jomtien Immigration?
Nigel **************
I think the answer lies in the fact that every immigration office works alone. Each one has their own set of rules and requirements. So that is why u get so many conflicting answers. Concentrate on the IO where u will submit your application only. Follow their rules only

Do I need to deposit 1.6 million baht for a joint account in Thailand for a retirement visa?
Nigel **************
I always understood for a Non O retirement Visa you need 800,000 in a Thai bank account in your name only.

Better ask your local IO and check if a joint a/c is allowed.
