RE: Requirements for Retirement Visa
Don't try the TM86 or 87 route at Samui Immigration. They will not accept that this is in the regulations.

What if I can not return on time to extend my Non-Imm O retirement ?
I showed them a printout from the bureau website quoting the requirements but because it had a link in blue at the bottom of the page to bangkok/imm, they pushed it back at me saying,"This is from Bangkok, go to Bangkok".

O-A to O money
I was going to do the same, but at Samui Immigration. After three visits to make sure it was possible and even taking a printout of the conditions from the RTPI website, I was told" you cannot". "This is from Bangkok, go to Bangkok", and threw the printout back at me. So, Samui doesn't allow this!!

Blue book to get a yellow book
Here on Samui we have had to pay property tax for each year,(you can ignore the annual bill but it will then be required to pay when you sell the property). The bill for previous years was always just a few baht, however 2023's bill was over 3,000 baht. When I paid at the land office, I queried it and was told that to benefit from the lower rates I would now have to change the blue book for my villa to a yellow book. Everyone else I have spoken to locally is in the same boat.

Controversial Thai Tourism Fee Postponed Again
I don't see this as anything new. Up until the early 20's Thailand had a departure tax of 300 baht which was collected for international departures via booths at the airports. They are merely reinventing their own wheel.
