  1. Conversion from non-immigrant B visa (with work permit) to non-immigrant O (reirement) visa

    donthai posted a topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
    I have been living and working in Bangkok for over 15 years. I have a non-immigrant B visa and a work permit. I am planning to retire soon and want to convert my non-immigrant B visa to a retirement visa. Can the visa be converted within Thailand (without the need to exit the country and return on a tourist visa)? It seems this may not be possible. I have complied with the 800000 baht rule and have a letter from my bank. Also, I own my condominium and have all paperwork in respect of that. Has anyone had recent experience converting to a retirement visa? Did you exit the country and return on a tourist visa? What kind of tourist visa did you get? Also, can you recommend a visa agent? I am aware of the "special" services Thai Via Centre provide. Any comments or suggestions are greatly appreciated.
