Plonk about US17k in an account and get 5 year visa, or at least a visa that can be extended for 5 years?
Good deal if so.
You don't get the $17k back, though. The THB 1,000,000 for the 20 year one seems better value (if you think you are going to endure that long).
Oh. I thought they gave it back after 5 years.
That's not my understanding, but perhaps others with more knowledge can confirm as I am no expert.
You
BUY the thai elite 5 year, 10, 20 year visa
its not just plonking $$ in the bank, thats what you need do for a 1 year retirement extension now, ( 800,000 for 5 months,than 400,000 the rest of the year)
