Mr_Dome

misterinternational, very few expats in Cambodia become citizens, that tells you something. Some decide not to stay in the kingdom, some pass away, some get divorced much sooner than expected and many just don't see the point. It's not like ... Read More

Applying for a Retirement visa in Cambodia as at March 2019 by tookgare

Tookgare from Thailand How difficult is it to get a retirement visa now? As Retirement visas are becoming out of reach in Thailand unless you have THB1,000,000+ in a Thai Bank a/c as many western countries are not longer issuing proof of income ...

Mr_Dome
