    1. The US embassy along with others stopped doing a income affidavit at the end of 2018. Now you need to prove your income by way of monthly transfers of 65k baht into a Thai bank account from abroad. Some offices will accept 2 or 3 months of transfers for a new extension application instead of 12 months of transfers.

    2. Your best option may be to transfer 800k baht into a Thai bank. 

    If you enter visa exempt or on a tourist visa visa you could apply for a 90 day non-o visa entry at immigration. At that time you would need 800k baht in the bank on the day you apply. The latest list of requirements for the visa application does not show the 65k baht of transfers on it and only shows proof from a embassy that you can no longer get.

    When you apply for the one year extension you will need to show 800k baht in a Thai bank for 2 months on the day you apply.

    3. I suggest you have proof you have been vaccinated. If they reinstate it you would only need 7 days of quarantine after entering the country instead of 10 or 14 days.

     

    Where is this office that accepts 3 month transfers.

    Your assumption of virus risk is based upon the results of the initial version of the virus. It has been mutating and continues to mutate. The 3rd wave the EU and North America is facing is due to the variants which are more infectious and more lethal. The 3rd waves are being modeled for the expected younger people and their infections will be  as intense as older people  in the first wave. The 1st wave models have been shown as reliable so the new models should be as reliable.  The point is  that the new variants will be just as dangerous, and will be hitting younger people more.

    The reason we do not see the amount of hospitalization and death with over 75 year old now is that many have already died; Most at risk have been vaccinated and there are better treatment methods.

    Thailand  can say whatever it wants, but the only vaccines it will be able to easily access are  from China, Russia and India.  The EU and USA has imposed export controls on their vaccines with their  citizens getting priority. I doubt Thailand will get the better quality vaccines  until close to 2022.  The big hope is with  one does J&J product. Unfortunately, it has  priority contracts with other countries.

    If foreigners are intent on being vaccinated, they  should give consideration to going to countries where the desired vaccines are available.
