Thailand Retirement Visa

The retirement visa lets over-50s settle in Thailand long term, renewed annually. The rules around the financial requirement and seasoning of funds trip people up. We prepare your application and handle the yearly extension.

What we help with

From the first application to the annual extension, with the financial requirement handled correctly.

Eligibility check for the over-50 retirement route
Guidance on the 800,000 THB deposit or 65,000 THB monthly income
Help seasoning and evidencing funds to the required standard
Application preparation and submission support
Annual extension preparation so your status never lapses
Re-entry permits and 90-day reporting set up
Reality check. The financial requirement is either 800,000 THB held in a Thai bank account, seasoned for the required period before and after, or a monthly income of 65,000 THB, or a qualifying combination. The seasoning rules are where most self-applications go wrong, so timing matters.
