Married Extension without bank book
DrJack54 replied to dayo202's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
So you now use an account that does not use a bankbook. That is allowed but will be problematic at various immigration offices. On top of that you will need to obtain a bank statement. The 400k baht has to be in the bank for only 2 months plus under consideration period. All this to earn small amount of interest over a savings account.. -
Extending a tourist visa
DrJack54 replied to edwardandtubs's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
The first office is "reception". They have forms etc. The second desk inside gives you que number. There is a document check and that's when they may send you away without TM30. On lower level there is a photocopy stall that also does photo etc .. -

Requirements for October?
DrJack54 replied to Deserted's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
That will work no problem. Obviously make sure you have internet access. -
A train ticket won't cut it. Must be onward flight.

Siam Legal can open Bank Account. It will be with Bangkok Bank.. Can be done remotely. Approx 3500 baht

Read the thread. You are confused. Please post advice to OP without deflection . Let's wait till OP clarification of how he plans to enter Thailand -
Requirements for October?
DrJack54 replied to Deserted's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Good post of yours. Just to add....if the op applies for non O retirement in home country he will need to provide insurance for 90 days. Another option for him is to enter visa exempt and apply for non O within Thailand and in that example insurance not required -
The OP is not dealing with Jomtien. Apart from that reports recently that opening bank account in Pattaya required residence certificate. Also reports that some got around that requirement in Chonburi. In any event the OP does not deal with that district.
-
Surely a possibility. So where was this account opened and when?! Opened ended posts mean little. Very easy to post where and when. Also visa status when you opened the bank account.
-
There we have it. Proof an onward ticket is NEVER asked for by airline for folk flying to Thailand without a visa or reentry permit.
-
Your extension has expired. Guessing your plan is to return visa exempt. First step will be to obtain a non O in Thailand. Then later obtain a 12 month extension. If that's the case you may be asked by airline to show onward flight. If you are obtaining the non O in the UK an onward flight is not required.

In Bangkok you could use any agent. Examples: ThaiVisaCenter, Siam Legal etc . In places like Pattaya there are numerous options.

Report: nonthaburi IO 90 days report
DrJack54 replied to problemfarang's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Just for others info. First report can be done in person and via mail. -
Catch 22 for this is good description. You could try Kasikorn and hopefully with the non O bank may open account. Alternative is to use agent. Approx 3k baht. IMO saves the mucking about. Be aware that only 3 banks now do transfers (of large amounts) using WISE. Suggest one of these banks best option Agents often use BANGKOK BANK. From WISE .... You can send up to 2 million THB per transfer. Please note that you’ll be able to send 50,000 THB or above per transfer only to the following banks starting from 7 January 2022 due to regulatory changes: Bangkok Bank Public Company Kasikorn Bank Siam Commercial Bank

Reads as good promotion for report via mail or Online.. Why folk report in person I will never understand. -
Why are many visas based on age?
DrJack54 replied to timoti's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
No wonder you received 12 laugh emoji on your OP. Along with nothing positive. Your thread is a nonsense. You state.... "Yes i have many friends who have several million dollar net worth in Singapore which is where i live". Ludicrous. With that level of wealth there are options already outlined. -

See how you go in Australia with that theory. Can't believe some of the "privilege folk" posts in this thread.
