You are better off getting it in your home country. Just make sure you have your 400,000 parked in the bank for two months when you apply for your extension. If you get the visa in Thailand off of a visa exempt entry your can apply for an O visa but the money must be in a Thai bank on the day of application.

You are right for visas obtained outside of Thailand but I got my visa in Thailand

If you are applying for an O based on Retirement within Thailand than you would need the 800,000 in the bank, when applying for your first extension on that O you could use the monthly method if you already had 12 deposits in the bank, if not you would have to have the 800,000 in the bank. Speaking from personal experience at Rayong Immigration.

I think that is common knowledge, no I didn't miss that bit

If it doesn't have the correct code for international transfer you can get a credit advice from the bank, I get these automatically from Bangkok Bank.

Bring over 65000 baht a month and you don't have to keep any money in the bank

At my age and health issues, I would have to consider an agent if it gets that bad.

I guess that would make sense, my plan from now on is to get a number and then go out shopping and come back after lunch, I guess one time a year is not the end of the world

you were not there, you don't know what was coming out of the Brits mouth, after getting taken down and punched the officer was not going to put up with any more of his crap. Kudos to the officer, punk was lucky he didn't get the crap beat out of him. You never strike an officer in uniform.

I was also there twice in December, couldn't believe how packed it was, got a number and went out and ran errands had lunch and then back, didn't get out until three thirty. Been using Rayong for ten years, at the old office I was never there for more than an hour. Don't know where all of the extra people are coming from. They still use the old office for migrant workers so it just doesn't make any sense.

what the betting line on how long this one will last?

It will be no problem for you, just make sure you grab a number as soon as you enter. The online for 90 here is fantastic, did mine this morning and it was approved before ten. Good luck

I guess Scubba was right about the tats

Sorry cant resist, here is a photo of my cock
