I have 2 because of work as I need to send one away for visa for one country while travelling to another country so can’t do it on one passport

It’s not as simple as having money in the bank, you have to fill one of the criteria too, like a remote worker and I would believe the money would need to be in your countries account not Thailand. You have to prove you have an address in the uk too. And if you go for remote working a copy of the contract from your company. As you have been retired already in Thailand for 8 years you might find it difficult to then justify that you are working. Good luck 🤞

hi Craig, I would be interested in the process you went through to buy a condo and if you felt this was better than renting. I will probably be looking to buy one next year at some point myself. If you could send me some pointers of the process please 🙏

no it’s not, you must first have a non-immigrant o visa and the retirement visa is an extension of that. So in this guys case he may as well get a 90 day visa before he arrives to cancel any doubt he may have of entering and then do the extension with the retirement visa

You need the visa before you apply for a retirement visa so I would apply for that before you leave then you have no issues with immigration on arrival

Why do you need the single entry visa. Sounds like you will leave after 60 days so don’t need any sort of visa. If you go for a single entry visa that would be good for 90 days but you would need your airline tickets when you apply
