@Marty ********
elite visa is a terribly expensive and not recommended option for someone eligible for a non o based on retirement, marriage, or maybe even supporting a Thai child.

Not only that, but there are renewal hassles with elite as well.

What’s wrong with you people?

it’s ok. They are beginning to learn.

A 40% decrease in tourism is what more than a year of tax threats gets them. Not even mentioning the bank account situation, quarterly reporting and import taxes.

Ask yourself, is it legal?

Are the banks cracking down?

Could I be deported and banned?

If I do, will I be locked into using an agent forever?

What is the cost of a guilty conscience and constant paranoia?

Don’t forget, you must buy, maintain and renew health insurance from one of 14-16 Thai health insurance companies.

Age, pre existing conditions or high BMI may result in non acceptance.
