Thank you James. .. So if I get my retirement visa and for personal reasons I need to be outside of Thailand for lets say 5 months, Do I still have my retirement visa after that time? or do I need to reapply again.
Is there a telephone # for the immigration office in Bangkok? I want to call and ask them, i have been hearing different versions.. on other forums people say that those "under considerstion" dont need to go as the rules applies to theses cases as well,
