thanks for this important info! Is there any source you can point me to with these details, or any other means of confirming that this is still the case?
so that also means that I could get a retirement visa in advance of actually living in Thailand and provided I’m back in Thailand within each 12 months period I can keep it ‘live’ indefinitely? If so is there any minimum period I would need to stay in Thailand?
