Bangkok Bank at Chaengwattana
DrJack54 replied to OzMan's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
That is correct however he has to get bank letter so can do the update by making small transaction at same time at clerk does the letter. No need to go to teller. -
No. The only extension available to you is 12 months based on retirement. So your appointment is tomorrow. As you pointed out the banks are on lower lever. Suggest you go to your bank. Obtain the bank letter that confirms you are owner of the account. Make small deposit at the same time. This also updates the account. On same level there are photocopy stalls that will know what you need. Hand them pp and bank book and tell them "retirement visa" They know what pages are required. If you have done a TM47 have receipt as doc check will want that. If you have no luck ask them to reject application and they will give you 7 days to exit Thailand (it's not an extension) Do a border bounce and reload. New non O + extension.

Thinking you have an issue. You should have requested a 12 month bank statement from Bangkok bank a week ago. Unlike many other banks BB cannot issue 12 month statement on the spot. Suggest that you photocopy bank book pages for last 12 months. Highlight the monthly transfers. When does your permission of stay expire. Good luck.

advise needed. visarun. got rejected on airport
DrJack54 replied to popel's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
As if anyone is not aware of that "statement" It's a 'cover all'. Also refused entry having a visa while uncommon does occur. -

So after this trip to either Philippines or Cambodia your METV would still be valid and you reenter using that visa? If so should be no issue. -

Now for the Book :How not to do a border run -
OP, have you used "60 day extension to visit wife" Obtaining that would enable enough time to season the 400k. Do you have two bank accounts. If together they cover the shortfall you could use both accounts for money in bank method. Failing that you could border bounce and enter visa exempt and subsequent non O and 12 month extension.

New passport - how to proceed?
DrJack54 replied to StayinThailand2much's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
General rule of thumb is that stamps, visa information etc is transfered at immigration where they were issued. Example my last passport renewal was some years back at CW. The io at CW transferred non O details, etc. Would not transfer my reentry permit. Reason....it was issued at DMK (airport). "You need go there" Not surprised by your post. -

DrJack54 replied to twozeds's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
The OP would enter Thailand with valid reentry permit in old passport and will be given stamp till date same as on reentry permit. -
Retirement visa and new passport
DrJack54 replied to twozeds's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
One option is to wait till your window for 90 day report opens after return and do the TM47 and transfer of stamps on same visit. Don't forget to update things such as bank account passport details. -
When should I pre-apply for a visa?
DrJack54 replied to dpinger's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
How long is a piece of string. The amount on time you plan for being in Thailand for 2014 is not an issue using visa exempt entries. Don't follow the "visa bit of hassle where I live" eVisa? -
Confirmation of legal residence in the UK
DrJack54 replied to Chetzee's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Passport confirms your automatic right of residence in your passport country. Nothing to do with a proof of address. That's why pp is sufficient -

8.30am. Regardless of what time you arrive it's best to go to que desk prior to going downstairs to banks. Be aware sometimes que desk ask to see your application TM7 filled in. You also should make small deposit as same time. CW prefer bank book to be updated and show activity on day of application.
