  1. There are countries that have 25-30 days of paid leaves. Some even more if they take vacation time in lieu of being paid for overtime work.
  2. I have similar intentions as you have. I initially thought of non o-a visa so I can let the fund stay in my account outside of thailand. But the insurance is a deal breaker. I was also advised here to go for non o visa. I also already have a Thai bank account so I just moved some of my funds there. I also have a time deposit and the idea is to use it for the long stay extension requirement and leave it there until I decide to leave.
  3. The UK no longer accepts national IDs from Schengen Area nationals since October 1, 2021. A passport is now required.
  4. Everything is much clearer now. I might indeed do the normal extension and Covid extension if that is still available. The re entry permit is a good info. Thanks. Depending on conditions then, I will definitely need that as I would like to travel to neighboring countries during my stay in Thailand. If I decide to be based elsewhere, I’d withdraw some of the money but will still leave some as I will definitely go back to Thailand anyway even for a few months of stay.
  5. Thanks for quick response. I’m daft. Thought Non O gives 60 days only. The additional 90 days gives me the time I need to decide including ample time to process the 1 year extension through retirement.
  6. Sorry to hijack the thread but I don’t want to create a new thread on visa exempt plus what I am planning and what my options are. Depending on certain conditions, I might go for in Q1 next year for a long term retirement. I will initially do visa exempt for a month. This is my question though. Want are my best option for next steps? I want a trial of 3 months total before deciding if I will go for a non O extension via retirement. 1 Shall I extend for a month visa, then can I ask for non O after that for another 2 months and processing the 1 year extension on the last month prior to expiration. 2 Or am I forced to ask for a 2 months Non O and processing the 1 year extension during the last month. This will give me just 2 months to decide though, to stay for at least a year. It is around march/april. If there is still Covid extension, that’s what I’ll use, but if it is no longer available, which is applicable for me above? Or other options pls. I am hoping the first option is even possible as I will do that. It is the ideal for me as I have never spent longer than a month in Thailand before. Some info. I am 50 yo. It will be for Bangkok. I have the 800k already in the local bank there. I have a dual citizenship (France/Philippines). If I decide not to go for long term in Thailand, I’ll go to the Philippines. I am currently based in Europe. If Thailand or Philippines does not work out for me in the next 2 years, I may go back to Europe. sorry if some info are irrelevant. Thanks.
