We got the 5 year elite visa last year, both in our 50s and it was such an easy and stress free process, yes we still have to do our 90 day reporting but that takes all of maybe 30 minute wait and a 5 minute process to stamp and all done, I would definitely recommend Thailand elite visa. We can also renew after 5 years for the 15 year visa. For us it was easy and we are able to leave our money in our Australian bank rather than a Thai bank account. If you need more information elite do a Skype or video call to answer all your questions, we were communicated to all through the process and didn’t have to do anything, and picked up at airport and fast tracked through to immigration where they had our passports stamped whilst we sat and they collected our bags and had a car come and get us. For us it was a no brainer and we haven’t regretted paying for what we got. Good luck 👍

Thank you everyone 😊

Thankyou in Hua Hin

@Gary *********

Thankyou one more question do you know the cost to apply for the retirement visa in Thailand?

@Gary *********

Thanks for the info! do we need to have the 800,00 baht in a Thai bank 2 month before to apply for the OA visa?

F

So you can have the funds in your own bank account to apply for the visa wether it is O or OX visa

@Barry ******

Thanks for the info! but again this states I have to have a Thai bank account with $800,000 baht in it. but I also have so many people that have that in there Australian bank, why would I put it in a Thai bank, I agree eventually you would need to obtain a Thai bank account but my understanding is it’s not really required to obtain your first visa wether it’s O or Ox visa from Australia, correct me if I am wrong 😑

@Stuart ********
