Gee, kids, I’m 63 years old. Considering retiring to Thailand with my wife (Thai citizen) of 40 years. But they make it a bit difficult. Sure, you have to have money. Proven income each month and/or $$$ in the bank. Then you have to report your whereabouts about every 90 days. Move without reporting and you are screwed. Visa terms and duration vary with the type of visa.
We are fools here to just let anyone and everyone run amok. Yes, we can readily become a third-world country if we insist on it. I would not recommend it based on experience.
Thank you for your son’s service and your sacrifice. God bless you.
How long do they require for you to acquire citizenship?
