Should we get an education visa before arriving in Thailand or after getting there?

For a couple of dollars, you can book an onward flight with "onwardsflights.com".

This will meet the requirements of immigration.

What are the tax implications of the 800,000 baht requirement for a Thai retirement visa?
Niall *******
Savings are any money not earned in the current tax year.it could be the sale of a house I your home country. The funds can then be transferred to Thailand tax exempt. Earnings, excluding government/state pensions, brought into Thailand are not tax exempt. All earnings in another country and not brought into Thailand are tax exempt.

@Nick ******
 The key word you used there is Earned.

That's income, not savings.

By savings, I mean money earned before before you became eligible for tax in Thailand, ie. More than 18p days.

 No, if you bring any money I to Thailand as a tourist is non taxable. Likewise, monies earned, (savings) prior to becoming a resident (180 days) is non taxable regardless of how you saved your money.

All money earned outside Thailand and not brought into Thailand is non taxable.

 Not necessarily, but it will be up to you to demonstrate when the money was earned. Savings are not taxable

 It's not easy. A retirement visa is much easier but you need 800k in a Thai bank. Other than that it's very straight forward
