Personal Data Form, Medical Certificate?

[gk10002000]

Getting close to the Retirement Visa-Non Immigrant O-A.

What is a Personal Data Form? What is an acceptable medical certificate? Letter from my USA doctor? Some Thai form? How about the income statement? My Etrade bank statements are online. I doubt they will send an original with a notary on it. Anybody just print a statement and have it notarized?

  - Passport with validity of not less than 18 months.

Please clarify if you are applying for a O-A visa at a consulate or if you want to extend your stay in Thailand based on retirement at immigration. The documents are somewhat different.

Income statement.... I just printed the page online showing a deposit of the equivalent of 65,000Thai Bhat income per month in one of my foreign, Canadian bank accounts. The copy accepted by the Canadian Embassy in Bangkok for the affidavit, same as having it notarized, 1,500 Bhat for the notarization and the same copy accepted by Immigration in Thailand to apply for my retirement visa about a year ago. To my knowledge most embassies have a notary on staff.

Went from Non B with work permit to retirement visa and then later back to non B, when I found work again.

An American friend did the same and took it to the Thai Embassy in Laos with the affidavit from the U.

S. Embassy in Bangkok to get his retirement visa, changing from tourist to Retirement Non O visa.

I think the Op is applying for a Non Imm O-A Visa in The U.S.

Follow the instructions issued by the Thai Consulate or Embassy that you are going to use and use the forms that they provide on their web site

There is no one size that fits all since they all follow the Ministry of Foreign Affairs guidelines with minor variations

For instance, Chicago and Los Angeles require all documentation to be notarized, New York Consulate and Washington Embassy do not

I applied for O-A Non Immigrant Visa (long stay) at the New York Consulate and used forms I had downloaded from the Washington Embassy web site. Although NY issued the Visa, they stated that next time I should use the forms on their web site. The Embassy in Washington is a real stickler of the correct number of copies and will hold off approving your visa until you provide the correct number of copies
