@Bob *********
no, you don’t. I played with it and I can apply from Hong Kong or Europe. There are probably more places.
Terry ********
@Nishant ***********
that’s true but I’ve already done it twice and I may need the extra time to covert to Non O for retirement.
Terry ********
@Andrew ******
yes. I thought about that and I think it would be a problem when uploading travel information.

@Henrik ****
that would be Thailand and I can’t apply from there.

@Brandon ***********
I have and they are pretty much the same. The only difference I see is that in Saigon you need an appointment but in Hanoi you don’t.
Terry ********
@John *********
most people seem to go to Hanoi. I’ve gone there a couple of times myself. Is there anything wrong with going to Saigon?

@Brandon ***********
in my experience at least, what it says and what you get can be two different things. For example, on my last transfer, it said it would take seconds. After completing it, it said a few days. It actually took longer than that.

@Daniel ********
if you’re over 50 and meet the financial requirements, you could convert your visa to a Non-O based on retirement.

I didn’t get the email but I did see something encouraging when reviewing my Bangkok Bank account. The last couple of transfers I made showed as international transfers and I didn’t even mark them “for long term stay in Thailand “.

I do apologize. I misread the posts. My eyes must be getting old. Nevertheless, your vulgarity is uncalled for.
