What are the visa options for retirees in Thailand who want to teach English?

Al ********

Paul, say what you want. The

Proof is in the visa and birthdate and picture I’m not here to argue. Yes 50 has always been and still is the age but I was able to prove with legal documents that I’m done working for the rest of my life and on disability and that proved income along with bank statements. What changed after COVID is out of country Thai embassies aren’t doing this visa interviews anymore. It’s all done inside Thailand now

@Paul **********

what do you need next my birth certificate? I’m not sure what to tell you Paul. I was injured in construction. I was an iron worker I was able to prove to the Thai embassy in nyc that I wasn’t able to work anymore and had enough money monthly from disability. Paul Look at the birthdate and year the visa was issued. Do the math. Any other questions private message me

@Paul **********

they sure do check your age. Finger prints background checks and more. I was 47 when this was done. It wasn’t a easy process done here at the Thai embassy in New York

I was able to get a retirement visa at 47 years ago. This this was 7 years ago and was able to do so through the nyc Thai embassy. They verified the income from disability. Rules and laws have changed since pre COVID. This option is not available anymore

Can I bring frozen meat into Thailand on a flight from San Francisco to Chiang Rai?

Al ********

I know people who do it all the time without dry ice. Look for a quicker flight. You should find something with lay over about 24 hours. LAX used to run Thai airways direct to bkk but that was a long time ago and not available. 18 hours. You can find good beef that’s imported now. But pricey. I wouldn’t try it.

What should I consider bringing or leaving behind when retiring to Thailand?

Al ********

I’m from the USA also, maybe bbq stuff or higher end kitchen stuff and utensils and such. I finally found a great bbq grill after joining Lazada on line app same as Amazon. I’ve been coming to Thailand 24 years and things are much better now than many years ago. Seems like I can find everything I need now at big C or lotus stores. I still can’t find big sticks of speed sticks deodorant though 555
