  1. I want to have a basic Thai will. I am seeking information regarding lawyer recommendations, various costs, probate processing, etc. I am based in Bangkok on a retirement visa. Main concern is to have the funds in my Thai bank saving account distributed as per my wishes.
  2. To answer "why" one bank savings account was used only for extensions and for emergency if needed while the other was for routine day to day use.
  3. Office used is Chaengwattana (Div.1). "2 bank letters, etc." in addition would bank statements and copies of saving books be useful too?
  4. Two separate banks. Kbank and SCB bank. Both just saving accounts with passbooks.
  5. I assume that two separate saving accounts can be used to satisfy the 800k requirement for the retirement visa? Primary savings account used for extensions in the past fell below 800K for a couple of days recently, but have another savings account which would cover that discrepancy.
  6. Yesterday I went to Thai immigration at MuangThongTani to obtain a Certificate of Residence (COR). Arrived at about 10:30 and proceeded to the 2nd floor to get the B queue #. I had brought the usual required items like my passport and copies of the id page, visa and extension of visa pages, TM6, re-entry stamp page, and current 90day receipt. Because of my review of several internet sites I also brought the original and copies of accommodation lease, TM30 docs, a utility bill, 2 photos, and a copy of landlord’s ID. After obtaining the queue # I was seen quickly since very few people were at the section B (also only a few at section A for 90day reports). The IO only required my passport and the usual copies as above. The additional items (copies of accommodation lease, TM30 docs, utility bill, 2 photos, and a copy of landlord’s ID were not needed. Within a few minutes the IO gave me a slip to track the to be mailed COR which should arrived by 2 weeks. The cost was 200 Baht. I asked if there was an “express services” but was informed that wasn’t available. In addition, having brought all the same data, copies, etc. from my partner, the IO said that she would have to come herself to obtain the COR. Finally, was all done in about 15 minutes from the time of arrival.
