I'm doing this for a mate, who is PC illiterate, and becomes confused/fustrated very easily, so I would appreciate answers ONLY to the questions asked, I'm not interested in the pros and cons.
He is retiring , next year, on an Australian pension, approx 51000 baht/month, and some savings, though not a lot. He has a Thai GF of 4 years, and does plan on marrying her.
He has tried getting visa requirements, but it simply confuses him, as it mentions
1. Retirement
A security deposit of 800,000 Thai Baht in a bank account in Thailand for 2 months before the visa application
A monthly income of 65,000 Thai Baht
A combination of the security deposit and annual income of 800,000 Thai Baht2. Marriage
2. Marriage
400,000 THB in your bank account deposited at least 3 months prior to visa application or copy of your income showing 40,000 THB per month in income
3. Are there any other options
Regards
