  1. I have a new passport valid until August 2026. Now I have another question. Since this is my second consecutive retirement visa and I already have 800,000 THB in my own bank account, shouldn’t I be paying Maneerat Agency less than I did last year (which was 20,000 or 25,000 THB)? That was my first application, and they helped fund my account at the time. Wouldn't 10,000 or 15,000 THB be a more reasonable fee for their services now?
  2. I will definitely ask for a new 1 year passport (they refuse to give me one for a longer period) from my embassy. There are only 3-4 free pages left in the old one anyway.
  3. Just got from MANEERAT now. Was quite surprised. They told me that if I get a 1 year extension of my passport for one year (which is manually added to the existing passport) - this passport may be not eligible for the Retirement visa prolongation (extension, renewal - call it whatever you want). She told me that the extended passport is actually not a normal passport (even if it looks exactly like one). Any thoughts?
  4. through the maneerat agency
  5. I got a retirement visa about 1 year ago for 1 year . I think it is NON-O-A. Now I interested in the procedure of extending this visa for one more year. I am especially interested in the passport validity minimum.
  6. If I understood you right, if this is my second retirement visa application (in a row) - it is considered as an extension and I don't need to go through 2 months waiting period again before the visa is issued?
  7. My question is specifically about minimal validity of the passport. The embassy is ready to give me a passport for one year exactly but as I heard there may need a month or two more before they can process my visa application.
  8. A new retirement visa for one year. The old one expires in July.
  9. What is the minimum passport validity required to apply for a retirement visa? Thanks.
  10. well, it could be 49%. Or even as low as 40. It is not a science, just an opinion. These days of Trump everyone have a right for their own opinions.
  11. But you're so small—your thoughts, your way of thinking, your tendency to idolize insect-like perspectives... There's no way you could ever be a master. Let me guess: just a hundred years ago, your ancestors were digging in the dirt with their bare hands.
  12. There are no tourists in this world. Only other human beings. What kind of human being you personally are to post stupidities like this? Look into yourself- there is something definitely missing.
  13. From the marketing point of view: make Thailand different! Make people coming here feel different! Don't copy those bloody Singaporean fascists and the likes. Make this place free. Thailand has a great tradition of something special, something else.
  14. It is much better to be a troll than old European pedophile fighting for his rights (as if he deserved anything else but to be beaten with stones).
  15. My advice is based on my 2 years old experience. The things could change since.
  16. You are not going to produce a tourist heaven by constantly harassing foreigners ! You cannot eat cake and have it at the same time!
  17. Very normal for the low iq trump voting tribal idiots. Modern people must be different. We must always evolve into something else , something new and, hopefully, better. Going back 20000 years - this is a choice of the insects amongst us. We are not animals (excluding here Mr. Trump and his supporters)
  18. To the OP. Apply for the VISA at the embassies of the neighboring countries. Laos is a good choice. Now they ask to present your bank statements. Get 10k usd or more to your bank account statements which you will present to the embassy people. Will never have any problem when they see you have some money. For the Thais- money is the sacred thing, on the par with Buddha himself.
  19. Next time put 300 baht into your passport before handing it to the offcer.
