When I left I gave it away. (nobody would buy it) -
Hi, Hope you can help. Last time I was here for burning season I paid about 3,000 B. This year I can't pay that much. But I am hacking, coughing and sneezing. ( I finally went tio the doc.) Any ideas about where to buy an inexpensive air purifier? Thanks

How do I learn the visa laws?
cubism001 replied to cubism001's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Yes, social security does not extend to 800,000 bhat, even when a person is a retired teacher. Yet I could live like a worthy human being. It was refreshing. The Dalai Lama calls it 'living with dignity.' Perhaps it will work out again. It does teach us a few lessons, though, about how flippant people are, willing to ridicule fellow ex-pats. The Thai immigration officer was in good company... -
How do I learn the visa laws?
cubism001 replied to cubism001's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Kiimothai, now the larger visa company (in bkk) says they'll have a new quota of 15 month visas like you asked about. The issue with all the companies lies in the non O financial requirement (800,000 bhat), which is why so many of us get these 15 month extensions. But her quota is limited and timing is not 100% assured. I'm willing to try though. -
You nave not addressed the issue: '15 months' designates the visa we are discussing. The financial requirements are much different, and as I said (& you publicly ridiculed) this is only done through an agent. Before you shame and blame others, please do your homework. This has been around for awhile; you've just forgotten (or ignored it).

" The visa holder will often apply for Visa extension based on Retirement when in the Kingdom, which will enable them to stay for longer (see below). However, for this initial application, you will need the following documents: Proof that you are 50 years or older (your passport will suffice) Sufficient funds in your Thai Bank account not less than 800,000 THB. " Every source says this. This is not the visa we're discussing.

My 15 month retirement visa seems to be off the market now. Anyone have a martial arts connection or something similar that works for them? Or advice? I'll bet I have to pull up stakes & live elsewhere! Thanks! Ubon Joe, your opinions?

How do I learn the visa laws?
cubism001 replied to cubism001's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Chiang Mai, airport - the only one left, I believe. But I relied on private companies & it was fine until a month ago. Then one after another, they couldn't do this 15 month retirement visa, even a powerful company that I never doubted. I'm trying to learn the 'rules' so I don't step out of line again crossing borders until I have to move. It looks like the govt. simply wants younger, more affluent people now. I'll probably end up in a dustier less sanitary version of Thailand, at least until I save some cash to go elsewhere. How about you? I've posted everywhere. Maybe martial arts schools offer visas for a price? They did during covid. Thanks for posting. -

How do I learn the visa laws?
cubism001 replied to cubism001's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Hi Lopburi etc. I knew I'd be walking into the lion's den by posting this question. /despite the inaccuracy of my wording, how do I find information about requirements for the yearly retirement visa (not the lifetime one)? -
People posting often refer to 'official laws' and I would like to learn these. (What types of border crossings, etc.) I would also like to know the latest changes to the yearly retirement visa (a retirement visa issued for one year by an agent.) Where would I find these? Thank you.

Mesai border closed. Now what?
cubism001 replied to cubism001's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Sorry; that bus trip to Mesai was real exhausting. I entered Thailand by air from abroad as a visa exampt then (as i said) got that extended at Immigration. the stamp expires Dec. 4. I think I'l fly to Udon thani, get a stamp & back to Ch Mai. I have a deadline to meet as well. I'll go in a day or 2.
