noted with thanks. I will let my friend know.

The chart was from ChatGPT

It’s not that I don’t believe you. I’m sure you and everyone is right

Thank you and I will let my friend know and see whether she’s able to apply a non o from Canada.

I’ve just checked and they offer non OA and non OX ( 10 yrs) only

Anyways, my friend in Canada was told by Thai embassy that non O can only be applied in Thailand

I applied a non O in consulate in hk and it’s an OA. Only in Thailand that you can apply for a non O without having insurance. I’m in Thailand now with a non OA for 2 yrs before I flew out and came back in to Thailand and applied for a non O

applying overseas at a consulate is always a Non OA. Only in Thailand you can apply for a Non O

@Stuart ********
in other words it’s better for her to apply for a OA retirement in Canada and upon arriving in Thailand then apply for a bank account ?

I wanted to know what sort of visa ( single tourist , tourist exemption) I should have when entering thailand in order to apply for the O retirement visa.

Because I will be in hk for only 2-3 days, I’m afraid I won’t have time to apply for single tourist visa so it’s good to know that with my passport( Singapore), I can enter thailand without a visa and it will be visa exemption
