Warm regards from Thailand.. My name is Vit., I am Thai currently living in Bangkok. Good to hear you are planing to spend your retirement in Thailand. Yes,you have made a correct decision to relocating in Thailand. There are many expats were relocated in Thailand (either from Europe,Canada,US, Russian,Scandinavian as well as the Asian)
Thailand is nice country and enrich with a beautiful traditional and culture..Thai people are nice as well.,they are friendly,sympathy, full of serviced mind...etc. Yes, in April we do a big festival called "Song Karn Festival" (it's a big holidays season)..Thais called "The Thai traditional New Year". I realized you should ever heard it before.
Anyways,Can you please tell me when will you suppose to move to Thailand ? You can reach me at:vitaminj66@gmail.com
Thank you.

I am from SA and have been in Thailand for nearly 3 years. To work here you need some very special skills. It is possible to get work permit for lesser skills but the your renumeration will be slave wages compared to SA. Generally, a work permit is going to need to be submitted by the company you will be employed by.
This really applies to most countries in the world actually, as I also have friends in the USA. (Of course if you are a multi-millionaire, you could start a company, or invest here; there are investment minimum amount aspects in both cases, as well).
My suggestion to you would be do your own online research about Thailand work permit aspects.
Then I would I lastly suggest making a trip to Thailand (up to 3 months on a tourist visa), after you have got some possibilities lined up and look at the reality from within Thailand. I'm sorry if I've made it sound kind of difficult/negative, but that is reality. My situation relates differently to yours, so its really no use explaining it.
Regards, Don.
I have read your post.. m also coming to THailand next week. i hope you could help to find a job and conver my tourist visa to NON B visa than i can work and stay there.. Live Long.

After visiting 2 xs to phuket I've learned that I want the thai life sooner then later.
My idea is to find a condo prob in chang Mai which has two 1 bedroom nice condos ajoining one another . So I can rent one and live in one !
Is this possible ?
After visiting phuket a second time I noticed too expensive but if way more affordable in chang mai I can always visit beach cities for long weekends.
Any feedback is welcome !
A place w pool, low monthly Maint fees near city is ok.
