Are there limitations on the duration of the Non-O visa for those over 50 in Thailand?
Marty *********
Short answer - you can extend the non O indefinitely as long as you meet the extension requirements. But even for my 10 year pensioner LTR, when it ends then it ends and then I can apply for the same or different appropriate visa at that time. If you were to end your non O you could then apply for it again at a later time.

@Elías *******
 Sorry I don’t remember. I have an LTR and the Board of Investment office did it all for me. If there is a fee it will be small.

@Bastien *******
 Yes. I sent my passport to the US embassy and they sent me my old and new passport to me about 4 weeks later. They punch holes in the old passport.
