half of the experts on here just repeat others with zero evidence. I've been told visas are impossible 20 times easily. Managed to get them every time iin those 20 countries or at the border or sometimes being driven from the border to the nearest airport.

@Jim *******

I think you should start a poll to see how many people on here applied for a retirement OA when in Thailand. 😂

There's about 50 agents in the country who's entire business is most based on that.

And here's the link telling you to go to the office....with the address.



Just for clarification...

I'll wait for your excuses....

@Steve ******

strange that I know about 1000 people that did.

@Steve ******

you can get a OA in Thailand....

@Graham *****

that's a non OA

Just apply for non O at home. Come open a bank and then get either a DTV or non OA. I'm no expert but a multi entry non OA over 50 is good. DTV is good as lasts 5 years for 180 per visit.
