Why retirement gets stuck

The retirement visa trips up almost everyone.

The income and deposit rules are confusing, the bank account you need for the visa is hard to open as a newcomer, and doing it all from another country, at this stage of life, is the last thing you want.

  • The 800,000 baht deposit and income rules read differently on every website.

  • You need a Thai bank account for the visa, but banks are wary of opening one for a visitor.

  • Then there's the 90-day report and yearly renewal, with no one to remind you.

The Thai Kru way

One team for the whole move into retirement.

We handle your retirement visa and the bank account it depends on, set up the finances the right way, and walk you through immigration in person. You make a few decisions, we do the legwork.

And we don't disappear after the visa. The yearly renewal, the 90-day report, finding a home, sorting healthcare through our associates: we stay your contact in Thailand for all of it.

Honest, bespoke pricing

Every retirement is different. So is every quote.

Some retirees just need the visa and the bank account. Others want the home, the healthcare and the whole landing handled. We scope it to exactly what you need, line by line, with no hidden fees, then come back with a clear plan and price. The consultation is free.

Just need the visa? See straightforward pricing for the retirement visa on its own.

We make it right. Final visa approval is immigration's decision, but if we get something wrong, we fix it. Backed by our money-back guarantee.

Before you ask

Questions retirees always have.

What are the financial requirements?+

Broadly, an 800,000 baht deposit or a qualifying monthly income, with some variation by visa type. On your free call we tell you exactly which route fits your situation.

Can you set up the bank account and deposit?+

Yes. We open your Thai bank account in person and help you place the deposit or document the income exactly as immigration expects.

Can you do it while I'm still abroad?+

Much of it, yes. We prepare everything before you arrive so the in-person steps are quick once you land.

Non-O or O-A, which is right for me?+

It depends on where you apply, your finances and your plans. We assess your case and recommend the route that's simplest for you.

Do you handle the yearly renewal and 90-day report?+

Yes. We track and handle the renewal, TM30 and 90-day reporting so nothing lapses while you get on with retirement.

How much does it cost?+

It depends on how much you want handled. We scope it line by line and quote you up front, with no hidden fees. The first consultation is free.
