Retirement Visa (O-A/O-X)

Thailand's retirement visas are for those 50+ seeking long-term stays. The O-A (1-year) requires THB 800,000 in a Thai bank OR monthly income of THB 65,000, plus mandatory health insurance (THB 400,000 inpatient / THB 40,000 outpatient coverage). The O-X (5-10 years) is for citizens of 18 countries and requires THB 3 million in Thai bank OR THB 1.8 million + annual income of THB 1.2 million. Both require 90-day immigration reporting and prohibit employment. The O-X offers multiple entries and easier renewals but stricter financial requirements.
