泰国退休签证：分步指南
泰国的壮丽景观由茂密的树叶和风景优美的海滩组成，营造出一种非常放松和舒缓的环境，人们可以永远居住其中。外国人被迷住了，想在这个令人惊叹的热带天堂度过退休时光，这并不奇怪。

50 岁及以上的人可以申请泰国退休签证。这使您在泰国的逗留变得轻松无忧。如果您有兴趣这样做，申请泰国退休签证将是第一步。以下是要求。

如何在泰国获得退休签证
泰国退休签证

步骤 1：获得非移民签证 – “O” 类

要求：

护照有效期至少为 6 个月，到期前剩余有效期

泰国住宿证明（如果您在泰国境内申请此签证）

显示资金证明的银行对账单

年度健康保险（部分泰国驻外大使馆或领事馆要求提供）

您必须拥有签证申请国的国籍或永久居留权

您可在泰国驻外大使馆或泰国境内的泰国移民局申请。

步骤 2：获得为期一年的泰国退休签证延期

非移民 O 类延期要求：

必须年满 50 岁。
护照（每页均需签名）
非移民 O 签证
TM30 收据
满足财务要求的证明，例如银行对账单（用于收入）
泰国大使馆的收入证明（申请人的国籍）
显示存款账户的泰国银行存折（原件）
泰国银行的来信（证明必须由银行官员签名）
三 (3) 张 4×5 厘米照片，需在过去 6 个月内拍摄。
泰国永久住所的证明，例如租赁或租房协议。
在泰国境内完成的退休签证申请流程不需要医疗证明和犯罪记录证明。

步骤 3：获得再入境许可
大多数人误解了“延期逗留”和“再入境许可”的不同概念。有时他们会混淆，但您必须明白，这是两个不同的东西，您在逗留期间都需要它们。

延期逗留只是您逗留期间的控制日期。其他一切都取决于此。当您的延期逗留到期时，一切都将失效。延期逗留通常有效期为 1 年。另一方面，再入境许可证的有效期取决于您的延期逗留的有效期。但是，在没有再入境许可证的情况下离开泰国将自动使您的延期逗留或逗留期失效。

再入境许可证为泰国退休签证持有人提供两种选择：

单次入境（1,000 泰铢）
多次入境（3,800 泰铢）
再入境许可证申请在泰国机场提交。移民局在护照检查柜台前指派了一名移民官员来处理这些请求。

步骤 4：每 90 天报告您的逗留和签证到期
如果申请人长期延期逗留，则必须每 90 天向移民局报告一次。持有多次入境签证的人员只需在每次入境 90 天后离开泰国并续签逗留期限即可。报告可以亲自或在线完成。

如果您无法在泰国境内获得延期，则必须从国外的泰国大使馆或领事馆获得新的非移民 O 签证。

摘要
您现在持有为期 1 年的退休非移民签证延期。不需要健康保险，但申请人必须在泰国境内申请签证才能免除保险要求。请记住每 3 个月进行一次报告，通常称为“90 天报告”，在线或亲自向移民局提交申请。在 Siam Legal 等律师事务所的帮助下享受您在泰国的退休生活，他们有移民顾问为您提供帮助。

Retirement Visa Thailand: A Step-by-Step Guide
Thailand’s majestic landscape, formed by its rich foliage and scenic beaches, makes for a very relaxing and soothing environment one could live in forever. It’s not surprising that foreigners find themselves enchanted and want to spend their retirement days in this breathtaking tropical paradise.

Persons 50 years of age and older may apply for the Thailand Retirement visa. This makes your stay in Thailand hassle-free. If you are interested in doing the same, applying for a retirement visa in Thailand would be the first step to take. Listed below are the requirements.

How to Obtain a Retirement Visa in Thailand
Thailand Retirement Visa

STEP 1: OBTAIN A NON-IMMIGRANT VISA – CATEGORY “O”
Requirements:

Passport with validity of at least 6 months remaining before expiration
Proof of Accommodation in Thailand (if you apply for this visa within Thailand)
Bank statement showing proof of funds
Annual health insurance (as required by some Thai embassies or consulates abroad)
You must be holding nationality or permanent residence of the country of visa application
You apply at the Thai Embassy abroad or Thai immigration office within Thailand.
STEP 2: OBTAIN A ONE-YEAR THAI RETIREMENT VISA EXTENSION
Non-Immigrant O Extension Requirements:

Must be 50 years old and above.
Passport (signed copies of each page)
Non-Immigrant O Visa
TM30 receipt
Proof of meeting Financial Requirements such as bank statement (for income)
Income Certificate from the embassy in Thailand (applicant’s nationality)
Thai Bank Book showing deposit account (original)
Letter from your Thai Bank (certificate must be signed by the bank official)
Three (3) 4×5 cm photos, with full face taken within the last 6 months.
Proof of permanent accommodation in Thailand such as a lease or rental agreement.
Medical certificates and criminal record certificates are not required for the retirement visa application process completed inside Thailand.

STEP 3: OBTAINING A RE-ENTRY PERMIT
Most people misunderstand the different concepts of “Extension of Stay” and “Re-entry Permit”. Sometimes mistaken for each other, you must understand that these are two different things, both of which you would need during your stay.

The Extension of Stay is simply the controlling date for your period of stay. Everything else is dependent on this. Everything is invalidated when your Extension of Stay expires. Extension of stay is usually valid for 1 year. On the other hand, the Re-entry Permit’s validity is subject to the validity of your Extension of Stay. However, leaving Thailand without a re-entry permit automatically invalidates your extension of stay or period of stay.

The Re-Entry permit comes with two options for the Thailand Retirement Visa holder:

Single entry (1,000 THB)
Multiple entries (3,800 THB)
The re-entry permit application is submitted at the airports in Thailand. The Immigration Bureau has an Immigration officer assigned before the Passport Control counters for processing these requests.

STEP 4: REPORTING YOUR STAY EVERY 90 DAYS and VISA EXPIRATION
Applicants must report to the Immigration Bureau every 90 days if they are on a long-term extension of stay. Persons holding a multiple entry visa will simply depart Thailand and renew their extension of stay after each 90-day entry. The reporting can be accomplished either in person or online.

If you cannot obtain your extension inside Thailand, you will have to get a new non-immigrant O visa from a Thai Embassy or Consulate abroad.

SUMMARY
You are now a holder of a 1-year extension of a non-immigrant visa for retirement purposes. Health insurance is not required but the applicant must have applied within Thailand for the visa to be exempt from insurance requirements. Remember to do your reporting every 3 months, commonly referred to as “90-day reporting”, submitting the application to the Immigration office either online or in person. Enjoy your retirement in Thailand with the assistance of a law firm such as Siam Legal who have immigration consultants to assist you.

More Information for the Retirement Visa
VISITING THE IMMIGRATION OFFICE
Your first and only appearance for the retirement visa will be at the Immigration office for submission and its approval. You must appear in person with your passport and sign the visa paperwork in the presence of the Immigration staff. The Immigrant officer puts a stamp on the passport at the time of approval. On the same date you visited the Thai immigration office, you may also secure your re-entry permit.

RESTRICTIONS ON RETIREMENT VISA
The Thai retirement visa once approved allows you to stay in Thailand for one year. You are not allowed to have employment while on this type of visa. Also, you must report to Immigration every 90 days to verify your current address.

IMMIGRATION BUREAU IS RESPONSIBLE FOR EXTENSIONS FOR THE RETIREMENT VISA
This is a non-immigrant O visa issued by the Immigration Bureau. It is valid for a one-year retirement visa. No medical certificate is required. The holder of this type of visa is allowed to stay in Thailand for retirement purposes and the holder of this type of visa is not allowed to work. Employment of any kind is strictly prohibited. The immigration act forbids working under this type of visa. Please avoid a criminal record by violating this law. You can only apply for your Thai retirement visa at the Thai immigration office that has jurisdiction over the province where you currently reside in Thailand.
