Sorry, feeling a bit thick, I understand printing a 12-month statement at home and taking it to the bank. They then give you 2 letters to take to immigration, What two letters? One is obviously a balance on that day what's the other one, and what happens to the 12-month statement do you still take that to Immigration? And does it work at Jomtein Immigration? Every time I go there there is always something I'm short of. Thanks Hi In answer to your questions: One bank letter simply confirms that it is your account and gives that day's balance. Don't forget to make a transaction on that day before getting the letters. The other letter is a summary of the 12 monthly international transfers of at least 65k baht. Both letters have the official bank stamp. You can print the 12 month statement at any time as long as it includes the 12 monthly international transfers immigration require. The bank just extract those 12 payments from the statements to produce a summary for immigration. You do NOT have to take the 12 month statement to immigration, but do check that the bank have got the letter correct. If immigration want to check it they have the copies of your bank book pages to do that with. On a general note Pattaya City Expats have a checklist on their website which I tend to have a look at each year before preparing the paperwork just to see if there is anything new. It doesn't mention the TM30 address reporting document which I've had to give them the last 2 years but, other than that, it's good. Pattaya City Expats Club - Monthly Income 65k Checklist (pcec.club) They also have a section for any possible recent changes.

It is my account holding branch of Bangkok bank. Because you are providing the 12 months statement it doesn't take a week. I took the statement into the bank at 11am on the day of my immigration appointment at 2pm and it took them 30/45 minutes from my number being called for the bank to produce the 2 letters required for immigration. Off course whether all branches off Bangkok bank are using the same system I have no idea.

Unfortunately you have misread my post. It clearly states that you take the printed 12 months statement to the BANK and they produce the notarised letter that immigration require.

I did my retirement extension on 7th May on the basis of monthly overseas payments. I also normally use Central Festival branch and don't mind the late opening as I always go to immigration in the afternoon and had an appointment for 2pm. I did go 10 days earlier to order the statements for the required bank letter only to find that the process had changed - for the better in my opinion. You now can order 12 months statements from the mobile app (go to 'more services' from the home screen and you will see 'request account statement'). You get them on an email and print them off. Take them to the bank the day/day before your immigration visit and they produce the letter. From my number being called it took them 30/45 minutes, enough time for a coffee.

A bit late to the party but I'm pleased to confound the doubters by confirming that having had stamps transferred to my new passport on 23rd January I then utilised the online 90 day report site on 26th January and was approved.

Did mine on 3rd March. Submitted it at 10:25am and approved at 10:34am. Great service.
