    An agent is able to obtain you a non O based on retirement and subsequent 12 month extension for 25k. The stamps are real and valid. 

    If had had the 800k in the bank and were able to leave it in the bank then you could have obtained what I just outlined for 2000+1900 baht. Total ~ 4k

    Would seem now you need an agent and I mentioned 25k in previous posts.

    I suggest use an agent with history, reviews etc, an office (not a virtual one).

    But will it not be counter check by Immigration if there's a money in the bank or not? And is it not illegal?

    At the start, I acquired the visa from my country of origin. Long Stay tourist visa. Visa was till end February. Then I renewed it by myself at Bangkok immigration for 30 days..then again before the end of March, had it renewed using an agent for another 60 days still at Bangkok immigration. Then now looking to extend my stay here amd I was advised by agent to go for Retiree Visa and fee they are asking me is 25k Baht and telling me that money 800k is not required? Could that be true? Thanks bro

    And also if agent, for 25k Baht fee, they say 800k deposit is not required, doesn't it violate written immigration laws?

    I'm so confused Chris. So your using an agent. How did you last enter Thailand? Tourist visa or visa exempt or .....?

    If your using an agent then you will not required 800k in bank etc.

    If you actually can deposit money in the bank then you would need to follow the requirements outlined in Ubonjoe advice at start of thread.

    Edit: add simple question. How much are you paying your agent. If it's just assistance then few k.

    If to cover not having funds in Thai bank etc more like 25k.

    I assume you are asking about a extension of stay (it is not a visa) based upon retirement.

    The 800k baht in the bank for 2 months before the day you apply for the extension. Then you need to keep the 800k baht in the bank for 3 months from the day you apply and then 400k baht for the remainder of the extension.

    Some offices have people return after 3 months to confirm the balance and others every 90 days.

    If you did not meet the requirements for the year they could refuse to accept your application for the next extension.

    Thanks for your answer bro...

    Granting an initial Retiree visa is granted, can we be able to withdraw or transfer back the money into our bank account outside Thailand?
