Is the B800k requirement for the OA visa truly a voluntary bond, and how does it compare with the Elite Visa in terms of residency?

Terry ********

that doesn’t really make any sense. Thais have citizenship at birth, not after a lifetime. If someone is living and working here and wants citizenship, and if they’re younger, we can assume they will keep working and contributing for a long time.

that’s not very fair, is it? Very few Thais make 80,000 per month.

I was with you up until you started talking about canceling an extension before leaving. I’ve never heard of that, never done it and never had any problems.

What are the best visa options for living part-time in Thailand while bouncing between the USA, EU, and Mexico?

Terry ********

@Brandon ***********

I don’t see the point of the 6 month visa if you have to leave after 90 days. How is it better than two back to back 60 day visas with extensions?

How can I apply for a retirement visa in Thailand after using a 45-day exemption?

Terry ********

Normally, you need to come in on a 60 day tourist visa and then convert it to a Non O. After that you apply for the extension based on retirement. There is no such thing as a “retirement visa” as some here have used that term.

Terry ********

I’m not sure about a 30 day extension but I’ve done a 90 day report for a sick friend. No problem at all.
