Requirements For Extension Of Non 0 ?

[roamer]

A quick one if I may. Checking for new/current rules on extension of Non-0 visa can only find the rules based on marriage, 40K monthly etc. What are current requirements for single person for extension?

Thanks for any help.

Extend on what basis? Being single is not a listed reason to extend.

Ok Lop, I'll explain more. Its a friend of mine just lazing around in LOS, money is no problem and is looking around for a property but in no hurry. Got the original visa from Hull. Although he can qualify for a retirement visa he may well decide to start a business this year and thought it might be less hassle extending his Non 0 visa rather than getting a retirement visa and having to switch back or change to Non B.

Any clearer ? Thanks for any help.

Based on retirement is his only option. If he forms a company it would be 2008 before he could apply for a extension based on business.(unless it was BOI)

There is no extension for lazing around either. But he can extend his current O on the basis of retirement with 800k baht in a bank for three months or confirmed income of 65k per month or combination. If he needs to work later it would not be any problem going back to a work extension.

Thanks Lopburi & Sunbelt. Retirement it shall be, appropriate anyway as he seems to have done nothing more arduous than get out of bed since he got to LOS.

Cheers.
