How do foreigners apply for Thai pension visa?

Thai law stipulates that foreigners over 50 years old and with certain financial ability can apply for Thai pension visa, namely retirement visa. The visa period is one year and can be renewed indefinitely. Unlike Malaysia, a neighboring country of Thailand, which requires the freezing of funds, the 800000 baht in the bank account of Thailand can be withdrawn at any time for other purposes, house purchase or other purposes.

1. Over 50 years old

2. There are at least 800000 baht deposits in the personal bank account opened in Thailand

Materials to be prepared:

1. Applicant's passport

2. The deposit certificate of 800 thousand baht in the applicant's personal account in Thailand

3. Business visa (if you enter China with a travel visa, you need to change the travel visa into a business visa before you can change it into a pension visa)

What information do you need to apply for Thailand pension visa? I want to apply for one for my grandparents.

If you understand the basic requirements of the pension visa in Thailand, it is not necessary to say that the pension visa can stay for 15 months for the first time, which is one visa for one year, and can be renewed indefinitely. If the pension visa is renewed within the validity period, the holder can be allowed to freely enter and leave Thailand for many times.

In addition to the materials you mentioned above:

1. Applicant's passport

2. The deposit certificate of 800 thousand baht in the applicant's personal account in Thailand

3. Business visa (for entry into Thailand)

4. 6 2-inch white background photos

5. Immigration department application form and other application materials

You also missed three important materials:

1. No crime certificate, issued by the local police station (valid for 3 months), this is to get the agency that can handle foreign notarization, to handle foreign notarization and the Ministry of foreign affairs and embassy double certification, notarization should be translated into Thai, Thai Embassy only recognize

The whole process takes about two weeks.

2. Physical examination certificate issued by Thai hospital (valid for 3 months)

3. Proof of identity (if you have changed your name, you need to provide the corresponding change documents. If you have a Thai spouse and want to apply for a retirement visa, you need to provide a marriage certificate)

These are the complete materials. I saw some friends ask how to open an account in Thailand bank in China? Opening an account in Thailand involves going to the bank to sign your name, so you must open an account in time after you come to Thailand, and deposit 800000 baht. This money should be kept in it for three months.
