Frequently Asked Questions

What are the requirements for a retirement visa in Thailand?
You must be over 50 and have either a Thai bank account with at least 800,000 THB or monthly income of 65,000 THB. You may also need health insurance, police clearance, and other documents. More info: Immigration Bureau Thailand.
What’s the difference between Non-O and Non-OA?
Non-O can be applied for within Thailand or via consulate, usually without mandatory insurance. Non-OA is a long-term visa from your home country that requires insurance and police clearance. We help you choose the right one.
How long does the process take?
Usually 7–21 days depending on your case and immigration office workload. We prepare everything in advance to avoid delays.
Is a medical check-up required?
Only for Non-OA — insurance must cover at least 3,000,000 THB. For Non-O, basic health insurance is enough, and we can arrange extra coverage upon request.
Where do I submit my application?
Applications are filed at Pattaya Immigration. We pre-book the date and personally accompany you (your presence may not be required in some cases).
Can I get the visa without leaving Thailand?
Yes, if you’re staying in Thailand legally, you can change your visa status to Non-O. We prepare all documents and arrange your immigration visit.
Can I stay in Thailand long-term on a retirement visa?
Yes, the visa can be renewed annually if you meet the conditions. We help with extensions and track deadlines for you.
Do I need to register my residence address?
Yes. All foreigners must submit TM30 within 24 hours after arrival. We help file or update this form.
What if I can’t meet the bank balance requirement?
You may qualify with monthly income (bank transfers). This method is accepted for countries with official agreements with Thailand. For most countries (including Russia), proof must come from your consulate. We’ll check your case and assist with documentation.
What’s the penalty for missing the 90-day report?
Up to 2,000 THB, plus possible visa issues later. But with us, you’ll always be reminded in time.

I have been renting an office from Goldfish Expert for several months now. Through them, I opened a Thai company, obtained a visa and work permit, and receive accounting and legal support. It is very convenient that everything is handled in one place - without unnecessary running around and misunderstandings.

I am very satisfied with the service (after several inquiries of varying complexity - bank, visa, legal advice), which is rare for Pattaya! Everything was done according to the initial agreements, both in terms of timing and payment, without any hassle or Pattaya stories ))).

I got my motorcycle license through some guys. Everything went smoothly, they got me all the paperwork, medical documents, and gave me the address of the school. The whole process took three days, they take care of everything for you on the spot, you get your license on the third day, issued by the department, with a photo and fingerprints in the database—everything is done by the book.

We used this company to cross the border. It went very well! The bus was very comfortable, the air conditioning worked well (which is a miracle in Thailand), the driver was helpful, the stops were in convenient locations, and everyone was polite and punctual. Everything was well organized at the border, and they even provided water. Thank you for the excellent service, and I highly recommend it!

I am really impressed with the service here! I sought help with visa and document issues in Thailand, and they handled everything professionally from start to finish. Even before charging me for the consultation, they took the time to understand my case and made sure they could really help - that alone speaks volumes.

We had a terrible experience when we tried to do a border run on our own, without the help of a visa service. We were detained and denied entry into Thailand. We have a house that we rent, along with our personal belongings and our pet. Fortunately, I managed to find The Goldfish House, and they were able to help us with this situation.

A great, professional team, always dedicated to solving our visa needs (also driving licence and bank account). We live in Bangkok, and the Goldfish house team does not make us come to Pattaya unless necessary.
