Chiang Mai, Thailand

What residency documents or visas did I need if I will be in Chiang Mai for a while?

Answer this Question

We asked expats what residency documents or visas they need when settling in Chiang Mai. They wrote...

"Not difficult to turn a tourist visa into a Retirement Extension, but must be over 50 years old with sufficient money in Thai bank or proof of income from US Consulate. Not difficult but immigration office in Chiang Mai can be extremely busy. Also need to show rental contract," commented one expat who made the move to Chiang Mai, Thailand.
