Hey Coop really useful information!
Thx Brian. That is what our channel is about. Providing great information for our viewers 👍❤️👍
Hey Coop
My wife, Nancy & I (Brian) are in the middle of trying to arrange 90 days in Thailand for Jan, Feb & March this winter. We are a recent retired Canadian couple, we were wondering how much rental prices fluctuate between now and January? Will there still be occupancy available in your condo complex for short term stays like ours(3 months)?
Thanks for any help, we appreciate it, maybe we can get together for a coffee or something when we get in town. 🤗
Hi Brian and Nancy. Please email us at
Coopersthaiadventure@gmail.com
And we will forward it to Jeeb. If your in a position to pay a down payment she might be able to help you brother 🤞
Hey Cooper. Great video with very useful information, thank you. Sounds like a pretty straightforward process. All the best. 😊🤝
Thx Rob. It is very easy for agents here. And Forang thai visa is one of the best that I have found ❤️
@@CoopersThaiAdventure Thanks Cooper. 😊 Yes, definitely looks that way. She seems very nice too. All the best mate 🤝
Thx again Rob. We really appreciate your support and comments brother 👍👍
Great interviews…should really help out anyone needing to “extend” their stay. I did use their services for a retirement visa and found them very friendly and knowledgeable. They in fact went with me to the bank to open same day I inquired. 👍👍
Excellent agent Brooke and very friendly too. 👍❤️👍
I watch you alot Cooper. Thnx you and Darlene hope to meet you..thnx coop..
Thx brother. We welcome all subscribers ❤️
Thanks for the info coop!! eight days and awake up!! See you soon 👍
I got ya brother 👍👍
Good job Coop, greatly appreciated 👍
Thx Chris. Much appreciated brother 👍
You have a great guest
Thank you brother. Leo is a great guy. So nice and friendly. Most of our subscribers are great and we really love meeting them in person too ❤️
nice work 😁 Jomtien sounds like a nice place to relax , I know I was there
It is fantastic in Jomtien when you coming back brother ??
Update: I was just now "fed" this earlier video of yours, which answers most of the questions I had emailed you. More great information, and thank you for it!
Thx Ann. See you soon 👍❤️👍
Just subscribed
Thank you.
Thanks Cooper, your videos are always enjoyable with lots of useful information. Good to see more people moving there and happy with their decision. I’ll be back there later this year, hopefully with my Filipina this time. Then it will be decision time for both of us.
Hope we can all meet up ❤️
@@CoopersThaiAdventure Yes we definitely will, …lunch or dinner on us.
Your a true gentleman 👍❤️👍
Really informative Cooper . Many different conflicting information regards Lease duration requirement .
Anybody thinking of doing visas by themselves should visit Immigration & get the checklist as different Provinces have their own regional checklist & invariably varies
Yes Paul. And we’re finding different agents have different requirements too. So it is best to shop around ❤️
Great show !
Would you share address of the condominium building ,where Leo , Wiliam and you live . It seems great place 👍
Thank you !
It’s full right now unfortunately and the agent has asked me not to invite anymore people her for the time being as she is turning lots of people away right now. But if that changes in the future I will make another video. Hope you understand brother ❤️
Did Leo get his condo through Mr shon ?
6:30 Everyone keeps talking about the TM-30. My wife owns a house in Chaiyaphum where we plan on living. How do I meet the requirement.
Most people I know use an agent but as your wife is Thai she can just call immigration and ask for what you both need 👍❤️👍
I've heard the one year requirement in another video with an agent. This didn't make sense to me. Since a retirement visa is not guaranteed, it doesn't make sense to have a year long commitment. Three months makes more sense.
That’s why I had to find the truth and make this video.
Great info, thanks. Just to confirm,,, a potential retiree would need both a tenant agreement from outside Thailand and rental agreement from Thai address, do I understand that correctly?
Thank you
I'm a man.of little words so I can't comment because your information is correctly put out at the time of publication
Thx Roger. The law might or might not change in the future. I can only put out what it is right now brother 👍
Thankyou again Darren for all your help much appreciated
Thank you for the very valuable information about the Thai VISA / however you didn't mention the price or the exact location also What's the name of that Condominium in a the end video ? Okay I found your channel
Hi Michael. The price is about 35k baht depending on agent you use and that includes the price for opening a Thai bank account.
As for the location and contact details of the agent. It is in the description section of the video. Just click on the more button to view it. The condo at the end is where we live it’s called Dusit Grand Park 2.
Okay thanks ! Sounds pretty great ... Especially the banking information ...
No problem Michael. We’re here to help brother 👍❤️👍
Thanks for information. I'm getting one way ticket, and hopefully get visa and bank account sorted . Were is your condo . ? And name of it? sounds ok .
Make sure you get a throw away ticket before you come unless you already have a visa for Thailand. There are currently no rooms available at our condo building for rent.
Will the tourists visa be ok ?
No. You need to have a forward ticket. To any country of your choosing. Make it neighboring country to save money
@@CoopersThaiAdventure Right now, $44 Cheap Flights from Bangkok (BKK) to Phnom Penh (PNH)
Excellent JD 👍❤️👍
Hello there, interesting content. Did they also do the OA visa? I am wanting to retire in Hua Hin. Do you know if this company has an office in that area?
Hi Lynn. The Non O retirement visa is done inside Thailand and the OA retirement visa is done outside Thailand within Embassies. You would have to check at Hua Hin. For what agents are available. Please watch the interview I did a week ago last Saturday on our livestream with Mr. Singh. He answered everyone’s questions in a very easy to understand way 👍❤️👍
For retirement-O visa, I wanted to know (for now) how much cost the agent charge us?
Reading through comments and didn’t see prices for O visa and Retirement. How much for the retirement visa?
Depends on agent and if you have money to put in bank Matt. If you want to put 800k baht in Thai bank or not. If you want the agent to do it for you with their cash. And open bank account for you it’s about 35k baht
@@CoopersThaiAdventure Thanks, actually I meet the monthly pension minimum - the other option instead of the large bank deposit. Correct?
65k baht a month in income or 37k baht a month in income and 400k Thai baht in Thai bank Matt.
@@CoopersThaiAdventure Not sure if you know this or not, but does my foreign US pension need to be deposited every month into a Thai bank account or is it not necessary for me to even open a Thai account? Thanks again for all the info!
Like I said Matt it depends how you are going to do your retirement visa brother. If you have the 800k Thai baht in a Thai bank account then you do not need to show any income and your pension is yours to decide what bank you want it to go in
Good information there about the retirement visa. Q. If you are on a student visa, can you return to your home country for the death of a family member to attend the funeral? Thanks for the vlog Cooper
Correct Tim. Don’t fake it.
Yes Phil. You just need a letter from your school and to notify them so they don’t put you down as absent
You did not tell us what the promotional fee was that was offered to you guys.
I never take promotion fees ever !!! That is why my reviews matter to me so much. As they are based on my true opinion and not because someone is paying me to say it. 👍
Me tried too get an ejucation visa for teeching engrish to the thais but they said my qualiffications were not accepptabubble
😂😂😂 Nigel 😂😂😂
Not surprised Nigel . bad grammar should be Tryed not Tried .tut tut 👃
Please..what is the Resident Certificate and where and when do you get it...what do I need to open bank account so I can deposit money in to it
You get Residency Certificate from immigration. You need passport and TM30. You can open bank account by yourself. Just go to Bangkok bank.
What visa prices???? didn’t see any
Various depending on service you needs. But ball park is )$1000. For your first year then $500 for every year after
What happens with bank transfers from your home country into your Thai bank account i seem to have a $4999 dollar limit per day due to some international money laws can it be done at the Thai bank and what is the conversion rate like
Alan. Ask your bank if they can make a one off payment into your Thai bank account. If it’s in your name they may make an exception. Food for thought
I’ve transferred $50,000 from my USA bank to my Bangkok bank account. I just needed to explain the reason of the transfer.
Thanks for the advice.
This is really what i need, coming over to Thailand this week for my retirement plan.
Thought getting the retirement visa in bangkok.
May i know is Pattaya easier to get retirement visa than bangkok?
Thanks
I have never done the process in Bangkok. But my subscribers say it is easier in Pattaya 👍
Thanks for replying 😊
We reply to everyone personally Ed. Feel free to ask questions or comment here anytime brother 👍❤️👍
You did not tell us the prices of the Visa.
They asked me not to disclose that as it was a promotion at the time
Sir..can a retiree rent a condo in two different cities in Thailand at the same time?
Yes but you would have to register one as your primary residence for your TM30 for immigration 👍
No mention of Reporting Requirements or Multi Entry...
See last weeks livestream with our agent Mr. Singh. He addressed all those topics Robert. 👍❤️👍
Hi there, just thinking would it be accepted if the rented property is in other province outside Pattaya? But using their retirement visa application service? Also, 800k baht in the bank account? Thanks
Hi Adrian. Please watch yesterdays livestream video. Where I interviewed our personal immigration agent. He answered those and many many more questions that I believe will help you. And feel free to leave your feedback. As we really appreciate it 👍❤️👍
About this retirement visa.
I spoke to a visa agency in pattaya.
And i was told that i need to submit my passport to the immigration office for about one month for the process of application. And there is no receipt from the immigration that i passed my passport to them.
Is it true?
Or is there any proof?
Feeling nervous that i dont have my passport with me, and i might be treated like a illegal immigrant...
How you guys deal with it...
The agent will give you a receipt and copy of your passport. It’s all legit and no worry 3-4 weeks is the normal length to get a retirement visa Ed
Thanks for prompt reply.
Will talk to visa agency that you posted here. Have a nice day
You too Ed. Glad I could help brother 👍
Hi Cooper greath video very important only 3 month renting contract and I understand that if my pension is bigger than 65000 then it is possible?
Yes that is correct. If you earn more than 65000 baht a month you do not need to have 800k Thai baht in Thailand bank account 👍👍
Hi Cooper retiring there next year , regarding the $65,000 per month baht requirements. How do you show immigration you have it. Thanks
@raymondlowon7799 join our fb group all the information is there. Sorry some things on YT are censored ❤️
20.000.00 US dollars and ssi 2050.00 a month..how should proceed for permanent stay...how much start up money do I need.
Just come here as a tourist and start the retirement process. 20k is a good nest egg 👍❤️👍
Wait a minute what about proof of income???
Email me please. I can’t answer that here.
Coopersthaiadventure@gmail.com
Pattaya should give you guys the key to the city for bringing in all these expats to boost their economy. Great job Coop and Darlene!
Step right up Charles. Your next to retire here brother. We need good people like you brother 👍❤️👍
@@CoopersThaiAdventure My day will come eventually... love you guys!
Back at you Charles ❤️
At least disclose your "special Pricing" so folks have an idea what it is going to cost them?
It’s on our fb community channel ❤️
800k ?
fees?
Income requirements?
did I miss something?
No you didn’t Chris. As the agent asked me not to mention the fees as they are doing a promo this week only. As for the 800k and income requirements most agents work to help you with that here. At the end of the day if you are not going to be a burden to society they will work with you to get you a retirement visa brother. 👍❤️👍
Is it correct that if you get the retirement visa you must have a Thai medical insurance?. The amounts I have seen quotes are high if you are 65 and over. It goes in 5 year blocks so if you are 70 it goes up a lot from the 65-70 band, Also one of the people commenting said you had to have 800,000 Thai baht in a bank account and that it could be in a bank in your home country?. Is this correct?.
@@jorgenmansson4269 , Thanks. As I only intend to be in Jomtien for 5-6 months would a multi entry 60 day visa be a better option. Extend after the first 60 days for 30 days then leave the country for a couple of days and return for 60 days. Total 5 months.
Your right Tim. You do not need family in Thailand to get a NON O retirement visa. Don did a good job in her interview and she is very friendly in person too. Albeit a little nervous. She did very well.
Congratulations on getting your retirement visa brother on Friday 👍👍
7: 08 looks odd to have the person you are interviewing behind you
Thanks for noticing I am still very new to this. I will do better next time. Appreciate the feedback brother 👍👍
You dont need a driving license to open a Thai bank account!
Just 2 ids
@@CoopersThaiAdventure I,ve been in contact with that agency several times over whats needed for the retirement visa. They are saying just your passport and rent contract is needed. They can even facilitate for a small charge. A long term address if you dont have a rent agreement. After your video. I was concerned as I dont have a driving license or other photo ID. Contacted them by E-mail and they responded very quickly saying once again. Only Passport needed to open up a Thai bank account and complete the retirement visa. Im not trying to argue with you. Just letting you and other know not to panic if you dont have other photo ID such as a driving license
Hi,
As you probably know, they give visa for 15 months at the first application to new beginner foreigners and then again down to 1 year..
My question is: Do they stamp visa for 15 months or 1 year to a foreigner who has received a retired visa many times before?! İf he applies ones again after long time break ? And how much is the comnen prices at the broker visa agents for 15 months and 1 years?
How much for visa?.
It varies between agents. But the norm is about $1k US
So how much did he pay, ball park figure.
Some time in the future, according to the Deputy Police chief is considering tightening up the rules regarding agents using loopholes to obtain visas including bank accounts and how the rules will mean
Stricter rules to prove you have money in an account
That can only be decided by the new government Nick. Right now it is only a rumor. So take it as such.
