The Retire in Thailand Handbook 2025 (Revised Third Edition)
The Retire in Thailand Handbook 2025 (Revised Third Edition) is a follow-up to the original book I wrote and published in March 2018 The Retire in Thailand Handbook...The First Six Months and The Retire in Thailand Handbook 2023...The Next Six Years that I published in February 2023. I revised the book as many things have changed since I last updated the book two years ago. In that short time, the country has had three Prime Ministers while at the same time has been trying to kick-start the economy and the tourist industry after the covid pandemic. The book covers the seven years I have lived here and guides the reader through the procedures and protocols of establishing yourself in a new country to live or retire. The book is crammed full of advice on all aspects of establishing yourself in a new country, including:
What to bring, and what not to bring to Thailand with you.
How do you apply for a retirement visa from your own country?
How to apply for a Retirement Visa from within Thailand.
How to open a Thai bank account
How to transfer your pension to your new Thailand bank to avoid bank fees.
How to buy a vehicle.
How to apply for a Thai driving license.
How to rent a condo or a house.
How to buy a property in Thailand.
How to obtain suitable medical insurance coverage.
Healthcare and dental costs
Best retirement locations in Thailand
Advice for single retirees
The book is also filled with cost comparison charts, helpful tips on living in Thailand, and some Thai words and phrases to learn before you arrive
