Yes there is a 5 and 10 year retirement visa
Yes there is a 5 and a 10 year retirement visa in Thailand, but it is technically the same.
Thailand offers two types of long stay non-immigrant retirement visas to foreigners, category O-A, which has a validity of 1 year.
Then there is category O-X which has an initial validity of 5 years and is extendable for another 5 years, hence usually being called a 10-year visa. Please note that employment is restricted for all types of retirement visas in Thailand.

To be eligible for the O-X visa, you must meet the following requirements:
Please keep in mind that the bank deposits must be maintained in full for at least one year, and at least 500,000 baht thereafter.
If you meet all of the requirements listed above then you are eligible to apply for the 10 year O-X visa.

"They are very honest and professional. I will definitely use their services when I move to Thailand."
"I just want to share with others whom are considering using them, that Thai Kru is an excellent service. They helped me with my STV visa. They helped me every step of the way. This was during a time where it was quite complex getting any visa in Thailand. During the application process, they were excellent especially regarding answering emails quickly and clearly. If there were any issues regarding the requirements I provided, they would inform me and help correct the issue. They had what seemed to be a perfectionist approach. It was very comforting. Everything went really well and it was hassle free. I also had them help me with my subsequent 90 day extension/report. That also went very well and hassle free. There’s no way I could have managed doing all of these processes on my own this smoothly. I’m very grateful and I continue to use there service till this day for my visa purposes in Thailand. I highly recommend them."
