Can I apply for a Non-O retirement extension in Thailand after entering on a tourist visa?

Mar 29, 2023

ORIGINAL POSTER

The Royal Thai Embassy in Pretoria, South Africa have changed their visa application process from 01 March 2023 and now use two agencies to issue visas: VFS and BLS. Currently VFS are not yet set up to issue any Thai  visas in South Africa and only BLS can do this. The list of visas that are issued do not include the Non O - retirement, only the Non OA - Retirement. 

I do not want an OA visa even though I meet all the  requirements. 

If I apply for a 60 day tourist visa (TR) can I apply for a retirement extension with this once in Thailand or is it just easier to come in  on a visa exempt and apply for a Non O once in the country? I already meet all of the Non O requirements. 

Thank you for your kind advice
