How many days before my expiration date can I apply for my Non-O retirement extension in Thailand?
Tony **********
Hua Hin prefers 1 week. I went 30 days and they said next year, 1 week. Not sure if they'll actually turn me away but that was their request

How soon can I apply for a Non-O retirement visa while on a tourist visa in Thailand?
Tony **********
@Michael ******
 not true. But it's difficult because no bank is now going to open an account for a tourist. Hence they would not qualify since when applying in country you need 800k in Thai bank at time of application, not 2 months prior to extension.

Just go with the non-o over 50 and get 1yr extension. No need for border bounces or other manipulations.

And remember the 3 days is Thailand time. So if you're coming from the usa, it's really 2 days because you lose one.

@Greg ********
 a non-o has no medical or criminal background check or insurance requirement. It can be extended for one year every year. The OA (i think) can be extended by 1yr one time, then you're done and it can't be done again inside Thailand.
