I am married to a Thai citizen who is currently living with me in the US but we both plan on moving back to retire in Thailand in 7 years (2026). Although, I have been recently convicted of a Felony DUI (Driving Under the Influence of Alcohol; 4th offence in a lifetime in the state of Colorado). With this felony charge, am I able to return to retire in our home in Chiangmai?
Thank You
Is retiring in Thailand with a criminal felony record possible?

A criminal background check is only required to apply for a OA long stay visa at a embassy or official Thai consulate.
No check is required to apply for a non-o visa or extension of stay based upon retirement or marriage at immigration here.
