BKK legal firm that I talked to still wanted all the correct monies in Thai bank account etc so they seemed to operate above board. I was just by their route I would avoid applying for the retirement visa in the UK with its need for a medical certificate that I could be refused on. Did not want to take the risk !!! Weather this is above board I do not know. They will only advise and act for you if you take this route as the say if you want to apply in your own country you are best to do this with the embassy yourself. I would like to like to do everything the correct way if possible!
Yes but my doctor wants to go into great detail of a medical condition that I have. Have shown him the form and do not want to risk being knocked back because of this ! That is why I originally was advised by a BKK legal firm to get a 90 day visa ( no medical form required and then to convert this to a retirement visa in Thailand after 60 days. What do you think to this? I am now planing to do this in a couple of years time the get re entry stamps for when I have to go back to Jersey UK for health reasons. Does that sound like a good plan to you?
Just to add one other complication the London Embassy may have a requirement to fill out a medical form for a retirement visa which for medical reasons I do not want to do as I do not want to risk being knocked back! I am advised by a legal firm in BKK that I can get a 90 day visa to go to Thailand , no medical form, then convert to a retirement visa in Thailand after 60 days, once again no medical form. Do not know the position as far as multiple re entries is though in this case as it was not in my original plan. Any definitive answers?
If on a retirement Visa but out of Thailand for 90 day reporting what happens then? With a re entry stamp if I was away for say six months does the visa start again when I re enter Thailand or if I have a retirement visa must I report every 90 days? (imposible to do if I am out of the country and in the UK for 6 months every year) ?
