How much is the Thailand retirement visa in US dollars?

You either keep an ฿800,000 bank deposit or show ฿65,000 per month in income. Both convert to the dollar figures in the table above at today’s mid-market rate.

Is it ฿800,000 deposit OR ฿65,000 monthly income?

Either route is accepted for the Non-O-A. Some applicants use a combination; confirm the exact acceptable mix with the consulate handling your application.

Does the exchange rate change how much the retirement deposit costs me?

Yes. The requirement is fixed in Thai baht (฿800,000), so its cost in dollars moves with the exchange rate. If the baht strengthens between now and when you transfer or show the funds, you will need more dollars to meet the same baht figure. This timing risk is why it helps to watch the rate and, where allowed, move funds when the baht is weaker.

At today's mid-market rate, the Non-O-A bank deposit of ฿800,000 is about $24,013.21, as of 2 July 2026.

Why this number exists

The Non-O-A retirement visa is for applicants aged 50 and over. Thailand wants evidence you can support yourself without working, which you meet one of two ways: a ฿800,000 bank deposit, or a steady ฿65,000 per month of income.

The ฿800,000 is money you keep in a Thai bank account (it is not a fee). The ฿65,000/month income route is judged on your pension or other regular income, so its dollar equivalent matters if your income is paid in dollars.

The exchange-rate timing risk

Because the Non-O-A bank deposit is fixed in baht, its cost in dollars changes with the exchange rate. At today's mid-market rate (2 July 2026) it's about $24,013.21 — but if the baht strengthens before you transfer or show the funds, you'll need more dollars for the same baht figure.
