Australian Citizen Return.

[Fraser Brown]

 

Background:

Previously stayed A-O Visa.

Delayed period outside Thailand due to travel restrictions. Visa since expired.

Thai Bank account maintained since August 2013. Balance has never dipped below THB800K since May 2018.

BKK apartment lease maintained.

 

Return Plan:

Apply/receive all necessary travel approvals.

Arrive Visa exempt, 30 day stamp.

After 15 days complete and lodge form TM87 for O Visa.

Subsequently apply O Visa for Retirement.

 

Perusing past posts I don’t believe I will need to remit an additional THB800K given my existing Bank account. (I do plan to send additional funds, but plan to transfer in smaller amounts on a needs basis).

However will I need to provide evidence of the remittance of the funds since the account was opened. Given time these may be difficult to immediately locate.

 

Do plan to maintain a level of Health Insurance with a more beneficial personal coverage.

 

Appreciate any thoughts if this is doable, or if there is anything I have overlooked.

 

Thank you in advance.

You won't need to show where your 800k came from as has been in Thai bank for some time.

The plan you outline is fine.

After your non O retirement you will be applying for a "12 month extension" 

I obtained same extension last week at CW. Here is link.
