You’re asking the WRONG question!

You should be asking which insurance company will pay your claim!

Bullshit!

There are approximately 450,000 of retirees living in Thailand, and many, if not most - secure their retirement visas through a visa agent!

It only cost me 13,000 baht to renew my retirement visa last year for another 12 months

I’ve been living in Thailand for more than ten years, so I know how it works here.

You’re a sheep!

Wake the fuck up, moron!

Don’t get a DTV visa!

DTV visa holders face several hurdles and restrictions:

1. Banking Limitations: You may face significant difficulties opening or maintaining a Thai bank account compared to other visa types.

2. Strict Entry Requirements: At the airport, immigration officers may demand proof of funds in cash and extensive paperwork confirming your remote work arrangements.

3. No Guarantee of Approval: Even after paying the 10,000 THB application fee, approval is never guaranteed. Many applicants are denied without being provided a specific reason.

4. Mandatory Departures: Every 180 days, you are required to leave the country. Upon re-entry, you must again provide proof of work arrangements and show at least 20,000 THB in cash.

A Retirement Visa bypasses all these complications entirely!

You don’t need ANY money in a Thai bank account to get a retirement visa if you use a visa agent to facilitate the process!

Just come to Thailand - you will get a free 60 days visa at the airport, and get yourself a visa agent - there are literally hundreds of them in Thailand.

For a fee, a visa agent will also help you open a bank account.
