hi I paid because I had the funds, I know it’s double or more if they facilitate the financial aspect.

@Chris ******

yes had the money, did say I didn’t circumnavigate the financial system as I know some can. I have a regular pension income more than the 65k needed each month and provided proof of both UK and Thai bank accounts but I see now how this has worked. Provided the bank balance from the date of opening the Thai bank account which showed 900k though I suppose the 3month extension then allows that to sit in the account for a period before granting the 12 month extension on a note of retirement…. So I’m assuming I’m not on a retirement visa after all but as Stuart says some form of extension… I originally had this done in Pattaya and so used one of the many agents there… I’ll do my homework now I’ve got time. Thanks.

@Stuart ********

thank you Stuart that gives me a better understanding, I’ve just done a 90 day report took 2 min at Korat no paperwork just handed over the passport…. Ding dong done… Ive gotta go back in June so I’ll ask then… one of the officials did give her phone number and said when I need to renew just give her a call… I’m assuming in an official capacity 🤦🏻‍♂️🤣 thanks again.

@David ******

thanks David, yes got the cash just wasn’t sure what I’d need to apply for. Korat Immigration office is very quick and friendly. 👍🏻

@Stuart ********

thanks for your answer. Just had a look at my passport and the stamps. One stamp says retirement and the other says Non-Imm with multiple re-entry. I know I was surprised that when I had this done it added up to 15 months in total. I provided all income information pension etc and statements of my uk bank account. I didn’t circumnavigate the financial details. I used an agent to assist with opening a bank account. I thought this would just be the quickest way to assist me… not sure now what I’ve got? 🤦🏻‍♂️😂

If it’s your first time you gotta go down to the immigration office there after you can do it online

We used an agent and it took just 2 weeks…. I problems they did all the paperwork we provided the photos and financial information

Cost

I’ve just moved all my stuff from the UK… they arranged for this company to take care of customs and delivery to the house.
