If you use an agent once here, your husband will get the retirement o visa and you can be dependant on his. But you need your marriage certificate translated and stamped in Thai embassy Bangkok.

If you are a dependant on your husbands visa, your husband only needs the 800,000 baht in the bank, make sure you have your marriage certificate, the original. 👍

Paula *********

I'm Australian, come in on the 90 day like you said you will do and just booked the cheapest flight out which at the time was to Singapore. Worked great. Before the 90 days was up, I opened a bank account, had a rental agreement residential certificate, and got the retirement visa. 👍

Can an Australian resident who has satisfied the Work Life rule apply for a pension and move to Thailand immediately without the 2-year portability rule?

Paula *********

I'm living abroad now so yes I have to return for 2 years. My father went back and they gave him the pension straight away but he has to reside in Australia for 2 years. Then he can come back to Thailand.
