1 Year Non-Immigrant Visa From Hull

[mitsubishi]

With the recent crackdown on the Multi-entry - 12 month 'friends and family' visa I wondering if they grant them for farang's who are unmarried, but have a 1 year lease on an apartment or house?

I seem to recall someone saying they got one ok doing it this way as they show 'ties to Thailand' or something like that?

I'm expecting a wall of skepticism and nay-sayers but maybe there's something.....

No thats for retirement, (multi entry Non O) If over 50yrs then show Hull statements showing monthly deposits of 900+ and apply for a Non O for retirement.

Once in Thailand and you wish you can then extend via immigration providing you meet the financials 65000 THB a month or 800,000 in a Thai Bank or a combo of both.

It is for a multi entry non immigrant O visa - Hull can not issue a long stay (retirement visa) and 1 years extensions of stay are issued by immigration inside Thailand. If you intend to retire in Thailand only a single entry visa would be required and it could be done inside Thailand for 2,000 baht if you meet the retirement extension financial conditions.
