Am I correct in assuming that if I opt for the 65,000B per month as opposed to the 800,000B option then there is no need to open up a Thai bank account.

Did not keep updated. My non O visa 90 day + 60 day extension for visiting child ends next week.

Looking around it looks like I have to leave even before applying for new Visa?

Any potential work arounds or advice on this?

Info suggests long waits in neighbour countries like laos.

Hi! My non-o marriage visa will expire on 7.12.24 and until now, I had no idea I can just extend it without leaving Thailand!

Is there a time limit for the extention? And as I understand from other posts, every immigration office has their own rules? I'm going to visit the one in Sriracha tomorrow. Please give me a few advices before I go there😅🙏

Hi, I am wanting to change my current banking deposits from the required 65k minimum to the 800k bank acc. minimum.

Have maintained 65k deposits but not sure on 800k seasoning requirements. My retirement visa renewal due end of April ' 25.

Wanted to apply for DTV until I realize I had 500,000b in a thai bank account for only 2 months. Can I know which embassy near thailand will accept 2 months?

Any advice appreciated. Last time in Thailand, an agent got me a retirement visa fore 32,000 baht. unfortunately, I didn't return in time to renew. Now, I'm returning after depositing 70000 baht in my Bangkok bank account for the last 3 months. Does that help me get a new retirement visa without an agent?

I would like to retire in Thailand which visa do I apply for please I am over 50 and when I can get thai bank account can transfer money, thank you.

I obtained my retirement visa with Affidavit Income Letter from my Home Country Thai Embassy. Therefore, I did not maintained 400k or 800k in my Thai Bank account. Question 🙋‍♀️: Do I need to deposit 400k or 800k or monthly 65000 @to my Thai Bank account for my next renewal?

Good morning everyone, my son will attend a school in Chiang Mai in August. The school will assist with the application of his ED visa and my wife’s guardian visa. I read that for her guardian visa she needs a Thai bank account and 500,000 THB deposited. My question is does this 500,000 need to be deposited from the very beginning of the application or only when it is extended ? Also can a bank account be opened before the visa is extended to 12 months ? I read the recent difficulties for opening bank accounts on shorter term visas.

Retirement visa:

My father have a 3 month retirement visa, he will apply soon for a 1 year showing his pension and all the papers to the immigration in Samui.

My mom (they are married) , 67 years old, can apply for " spouse / dependent visa"? Following the visa of my father? Or, as she is over 50yo, she must apply for a retirement visa as well?

Thanks
