Do you have the details (Phone number or address) of this school? That sounds like it may be a good starting point...

Hello, I am also looking for this same information for my Thai wife?

Thank you

Makes no difference either way at this point. I just assumed you got the original 90 day visa in Thailand because you (incorrectly) said you got a retirement visa in Thailand. We can't read minds here but we do try. 

 

Your original visa isn't relevant anymore for boarding purposes. Your legal right to stay in Thailand is based on your current RETIREMENT EXTENSION which you wisely saved via reentry permit. 

Think about this a bit. If you stay in Thailand for five years on continuous retirement extensions do you think U.S. boarding agents are going to be convinced by a five year old used visa? No, it's ALWAYS about what currently makes your stay legal. 

 

Again, you never got a retirement visa and you never need one. Your extensions are NOT retirement visas. 

Ok, Thank You

That's different than an O-A but you should still be OK. You will be returning based on a REENTRY PERMIT. You should be boarded based on that because that permit is based on a current retirement extension which is based on your original visa.

 

You do not have a retirement visa.

I am now assuming you did this in Thailand.

Applied for a 90 day O visa as part of the two step process, with the second step being an annual extension. Paid for multiple reentry permits separately. At no point did you get a retirement visa. Your current stay in Thailand based on my assumption is based on the annual extension based on retirement which you kept alive via reentry permit,

I received the 90 day in USA, Received Retirement Visa in Thailand

Based on the context of the OP I assume he is in possession of an O-A visa obtained in the U.S.

I receive the 1 year retirement Visa in Thailand (With multiple entries) when I was there 1 month ago. Had to come back to the states to take care of some loose ends, will be going back next month. So this is why I am asking this question.

All sounds fine and dandy but stupidly enough just last year in Los Angeles, ANA requested I have a return flight.

I also Have a retirement Visa but they insisted since I am an American citizen and have a US address.

 

With this I know that United Air has a 24 hour cancellation policy so I booked a return flight in the future on my phone, showed the ANA agent, got my BKK ticket.  While waiting for my BKK flight, I went back to the United Air site and canceled the bogus return flight.

 

I think it may depend on the airline policy.

 

That's what I heard about, that's why I'm asking.

I like this Idea!!!

Thanks

Hello,

I live in Florida and getting ready to move to Thailand I already received my 1 year retirement visa, I'm married to a Thai Lady.

I have looked and can't find a solid answer for this. Can I just purchase a one way flight to Thailand or do I still need to purchase a round trip flight even with a 1 year retirement visa?

I did the research on this same question before looking for extra lighting for my vehicle, I was told by a Thai Traffic Police Officer and by my local Toyota dealership that ALL extra mounted lighting on a vehicle be it light bars / flood lights are not supposed to be used on the public road; having them mounted is not the offence but using them is. You pay your money and take your chances.

Thank You, That's what I understood also.

Does anybody know the law in Thailand For LED light Bars and backup LED lights?
