Start with the question you have today
Which retirement visa?
Non-Immigrant O, O-A, O-X or the 10-year LTR visa — compared honestly, including the insurance and money-in-the-bank rules.
Compare all retirement visas →Will Thailand tax my pension?
Since 2024 Thailand taxes foreign income you bring in. What is taxable, what your tax treaty protects, and how to plan remittances.
Thai tax for retirees →Can I buy a home here?
Yes — a condo freehold in your own name, or a registered long-term lease. What is safe, what is not, and what due diligence costs.
Buying property safely → The FET form and the 49% quota →What happens to my assets?
Without a Thai will, your Thai bank accounts, condo and vehicle can take a year or more to release. A Thai will fixes this.
Thai wills & inheritance →Marrying a Thai partner?
Legal marriage registration, embassy affirmations, and why a prenuptial agreement must be signed on the day you register.
Marriage & prenup →Healthcare & insurance
Which visas force you to buy insurance, what hospitals really cost, and how to stay insurable after 70.
Insurance for retirees → O-A visa insurance: the 3 million baht rule →Why retirees work with a legal team
Many retirement-visa questions reach beyond the visa. They are also tax questions (the remittance rules applied since 2024), property questions (a deposit paid on a condo that cannot be transferred to a foreigner) and estate questions (Thai assets held up because there was no Thai will). We advise on all of them together, and everything you tell us is kept confidential.
