What visa agent can help? O 'retirement' renewal, no 800k baht!)
Topic covered many times. Very easy to contact agents via in person or phone or apps such as Line Messenger etc. What's with wanting information via PM? Note prices have recently increased. Eg Maneerat thinking ~ 16k

800k Not In the Bank Method
He could after using an agent run financial compliance for 12 months including back to 2 months prior to last extension. That would avoid exiting Thailand. However suggest very few would do that. Better option would be to start over IMO. That can be done by border bounce and obtain Non O from visa exempt entry or obtain Non O in nearby country. FAIR: your friend is old and has some financial issues. Suggest he just continue ongoing with agent.

BKK Bank 4 months banked method??
Your OP was concerning 400b. As in extensions marriage. Agents don't even deal with those regarding funds. Time for some folk to change banks.

BKK Bank 4 months banked method??
There is no letter "confirming the funds" There is a bank letter that basically lists name of owner of the account and balance at time of issue. 100b For seasoning of funds (2 months) immigration would accept 3 month Bank statement or even photocopies of Bank book showing balances back two months. Suggest there is a "lost in translation" in this story. Keeping funds for 4 months would suggest perhaps a Fixed Deposit account. In any event. Story makes no sense and is guess work

Visa run limits
As pointed out he would require a visa however thinking your suggestion a good one. In my first 7 years in Thailand I went to Vietnam pretty much every month. During that time I (Oz) would buy 4 three month multi entry visas/year. From memory 80usd each. Think eVisa has came down in price. Never understand why folk have desire to spend as much time as possible in Thailand.

800k Not In the Bank Method
That's the best option. A border bounce without a reentry permit to then reenter visa exempt and apply for Non O at local immigration is also an option. However that would require to show 800k from abroad. Non O from outside Thailand better option.

How to open a Bank account in 2025?
Great. Contact them tomorrow as I did some time ago... "No can do" Ask @ThaiVisaCentre if they can assist with opening Bank account without a Non O Thinking not.

Visa run limits
You plan to visit these other countries via air and reenter via air? How long is the time frame? Meaning total stay in SEA over next 12 months? Sounds like 6 months in and 6 out. Currently borders closed with Cambodia however that should resolve at some point.. For a Non O in own country the 800k does not need to be in Thai Bank . For 12 month extension it does.

Transfering Visa from old to new passport
That's not uncommon. Immigration just being Lazy. Also not uncommon.

800k Not In the Bank Method
When you apply for extension the financial requirements are checked retrospectively. Non compliance will be obvious

Transfering Visa from old to new passport
Read my previous advice. Do not leave transfer of stamps till next extension application. Do beforehand. Why not do it now. Don't follow your questions. Then also update your bank. TDL not important.

And Siam Legal withdrew that service since then. Few years back. Your information is out of date.

BKK Bank 4 months banked method??
For extension based on marriage the requirement is 400k in Thai bank account in your name only for 2 months prior to application and maintained during under consideration period.

Looking for Affordable ED Visa School – 2nd Time Applying (Need Cheaper Option)
Wasn't your previous thread about refused entry and asking about safe airport entry. Go home and obtain a DTV . Your posts becoming less credible. "20k for yet another Ed visa". That's funny. Looking for little/no attendance. Frankly find the Thread bit pathetic.

Transfering Visa from old to new passport
You would need to have stamps transferred prior (or same time) as any dealings with immigration. For example to obtain COR, Extension etc. Suggest you do it prior to extension and update information with your bank
-
Transfering Visa from old to new passport
Not at most immigration offices. https://aseannow.com/topic/1336167-transfer-of-information-from-old-passport-to-new-passport/ Just more immigration offices making their own rules.

Which immigration office.. That not have been required. BTW it's not only USA that are not issuing "letter" With the new pp.

Transfering Visa from old to new passport
Thanks for report. Not sure why you would be surprised by required insurance to show compliance. Year back I did my transfer at CW. Extensions from a Non O. In addition to the requirements on the form they wanted photocopies of bank book pages back to current extension + bank book update. This would be to show financial compliance. Just typical rubbish from immigration. Add things Willy Nillie and don't indicate the change on the form

Stop Complaining
With some folks banging on about mowing their own lawns or "making a day of it" in reference to in person reporting or pointing out their immigration has drive through option. What is not mentioned is those that do not have drive through. Those with mobility issues where for example a trip to CW and the Massive office is an extreme challenge. Again it's plain incompetence that an online reporting system requires in person report after trip abroad. This is not complaining but rather telling/asking immigration to develop systems that work and also have a point. What does 90 day reporting actually achieve. The same could be said about TM30. Answer: NOTHING.
-
Stop Complaining
One could use the word "complain" however it's more about zero attempt to streamline things that is "mind boggling" The simple fact that Thai online 90 day reporting can not cope with a trip abroad and requires a trip in person to immigration to reset the clock is the ridiculous part. I'm sure the IT expert expats here must get a laugh out of how hopeless some things are done.

Stop Complaining
Seems that you never take trips outside of Thailand. Currently if you do travel abroad the first 90 report must be done in person. I regard that as an issue as usually travel a lot.
