I am confused by your question. To gain an additional year, you make a border run. If you are reapplying in your home country, you start over and follow the same process as you did with the initial application.

@Jim ****

yes.

@Jim ****

they are not the same. One is a non imm o-a multi entry visa obtained via a Thai Embassy or Consulate in one’s home country. The other is an extension of stay based on retirement obtained via Immigration in Thailand.

You will not need to show any proof of funds when doing your 90 day reports.

@Tod ********

got it. Thanks.

Be sure that you are returning prior to the enter before date stamped on your visa.

As you probably know you can basically get a second year by doing a border run just prior to the enter before date on the visa. After that point you have a couple of options. You could go back to your home country and apply for a new non imm o-a multi entry visa, or you can apply for an extension of stay based on retirement here in Thailand.

@Tod ********

I believe that it can also be purchased at the airports.

@Patrick *****

after your enter before date passes, you will have another year based on your most recent reentry date. That said you must purchase a reentry permit prior to exiting the country.

the enter before date/enter prior to date stamped on the original visa is the key date to determine your options. I suspect that date may have already passed.
