Lite Beer Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 Moved to the Visa Forum. You can extend your stay every year if you have 800,000 Baht in a Thai bank OR 65,000 Baht monthly income OR a combination of both. These are the extension rules. You need 2.22.

Mario2008 Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 Marriage has nothing to do with retirement. There are several resons why you can get a non-immigrant visa. One is retirmement, another is being married to a Thai national. For retirment you don't need to be married. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many thanx For a Non-Immigrant "O-A" retirement visa obtained in your home country (Australia) the money does not have to be in Thailand for at least 1 year. After the first year you get a retirement extension from immigration in Thailand. At that point you need money in a Thai bank and/or pension income. Marriage is not required for a retirement visa or extension. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
