They got it the wrong way around, should have kept PCR before arrival and get rid of the other tests and Thai Pass.

Spot on as most airlines still require a pre- departure covid test before flying anyway

Am I missing something or totally dumb? According to the latest information a fully vaccinated traveller can enter Thailand and spend 1 night in a ASQ, but if the same traveller wants to enter Phuket they need to spend 7 nights in an ASQ. ???????????? Please tell me i am missing something. 

Yes, condos were new builds when I bought them 3 years ago.

Any suggestions on which banks are easier to open accounts 

with a retirement visa?

Hi,

i am considering applying for an investment visa and have a couple of questions,

I own 2 condominiums purchased for a combined total of 8 million Bht & have a bank 

account with CIMB Thai, before I transfer 2 million Bht to meet the 10 million Bht requirement,

is CIMB bank 50% Thai owned. If not I will need to open another bank account, which are the simplest

ones to open as I currently have a retirement visa.

Many Thanks.

Again brilliant advise I just have one final question regarding the 1 year Non immigrant O visa. I am assuming that this is a multiple entry visa as we come back and forward a couple of times each year.

OK, so she will be applying for visa in Phuket, her current visa expires on  17-March. If she applies now for 90 day non immigrant.

1. When is the earliest time that she can apply for 1 year extension.

2. How long does the 1 year visa take to process bearing in mind she           

    Has a flight booked on 8-May and will obviously need her passport.

The 60 Days to meet the financial requirement will be on 13-April.

Sorry if it sounds a bit like Jack & Jill, just need to clear on my options.

Thanks.

Graham.

Thanks that great information, what about other documentation required, been told many different things by different people.

Ubonjoe,

thanks for the reply, we need the additional time to comply with the number of days to meet the financial requirement. So do I understand that she can get her 30 day extension then immediately apply for the category O visa?

Hi all,

as I am new to this forum let mefirstly apologise if this question has been asked before.

My wife wil be applying for her retirement visa but currently only has a 60 day tourist visa.

As I understand she firstly needs to have a 90 day “O” visa, ten can apply for the retirement 

visa once there are 30 or less days remaining on that visa. Due to prior commitments our plan 

is to get a 30 day extension to her tourist visa & applyfor the 90 day “O” visa at the same time.

Is this possible? Then obtain a re entry stamp before leaving and apply for the retirement visa

when we return. Are there any holes in my plan?

Many Thanks.

Graham.
