What Is the Thailand Retirement Visa?
The Non-Immigrant O-A visa allows foreign nationals aged 50 and over to reside in Thailand for one year at a time. It is renewable annually at your local immigration office. For expats in Pattaya, Jomtien, Naklua and across the Eastern Seaboard it is the most popular route to long-term legal residence.
