{"children":[],"content":"<h2>Moving to Thailand shouldn't feel like a leap into the dark.</h2><p>You have been thinking about Thailand for months. Maybe years. The idea won't go away. A slower life, lower costs, warm weather, a real chance at the freedom you have been promising yourself. But every time you sit down to plan, the doubts creep back. The visa. The bank account. Leaving your family. The fear that you will hate it, or that it will not work out.</p><p>One hour with someone who actually lives in Thailand and has helped hundreds of foreigners make the same move turns the fog into a map. You stop guessing. You start building. The anxiety becomes excitement.</p><h2>What we cover in your consultation</h2><p>Not just visas. We cover the whole shape of your Thailand move so you leave with a real plan, not just a paperwork checklist.</p><ul><li><strong>Visas.</strong> Retirement (O, O-A, O-X, LTR), DTV for remote workers, family and dependent options, business visas, tourist conversions. We map your real situation to the right route.</li><li><strong>Where to live.</strong> Bangkok, Chiang Mai, Phuket, Koh Samui, Pattaya, Hua Hin. Which city fits your lifestyle, budget and visa, and which neighborhoods are right for your stage of life.</li><li><strong>How to actually move.</strong> What to ship, what to sell, what to buy here. Pets. Cars. Furniture. The boring logistics nobody warns you about.</li><li><strong>Banking and money.</strong> How to open a Thai bank account, which banks accept foreigners, transferring funds, the 800,000 THB or 500,000 THB deposit rules, and what you actually need for daily life.</li><li><strong>Healthcare and insurance.</strong> Which private hospitals are worth trusting, expat insurance options, what your visa requires and what you actually need beyond the minimum.</li><li><strong>Schools for your kids.</strong> International schools by city and budget, what enrolment looks like for foreigners, and how the school choice affects your visa and where you live.</li><li><strong>Business setup.</strong> If you plan to work or build something here, Thai company structure, BOI vs ordinary, work permits, and what's realistic versus what's marketing on YouTube.</li><li><strong>Thai tax basics.</strong> The new remittance rules, what counts as Thai-source income, when you become a tax resident, and the questions to ask your accountant before you arrive.</li><li><strong>Family logistics.</strong> Spouse and dependent visas, family medical, marriage registration if needed, and coordinating everyone's status as a single plan.</li><li><strong>Cost of living estimates.</strong> Honest numbers for your city and family size, not the YouTube fantasy \"$1000 a month\" version.</li></ul><h2>Who this is for</h2><p>People aged 50+ thinking about retirement. Remote workers looking at the 5-year DTV. Families coordinating a move with kids and a partner. Entrepreneurs setting up a Thai company. People who have been in Thailand on tourist runs for years and want to finally do it properly. If you are serious about a real life in Thailand and you want to plan it well the first time, this call is for you.</p><h2>What you get</h2><p>A 1-hour video or phone call with a Thai Kru specialist. A written After Action Report in your inbox within 24 hours covering exactly what to do, in what order, with which documents and which numbers.
