Funds will have to be obtained from overseas.

Are you sure about that..?

 

No questions asked about from where the 800k baht deposit originates. In principle – to my knowledge – you can move (all) your savings to Thailand and live off the dividend, or just use your savings; in some cases smart to avoid currency exchange rate deviations... 

 

OK OK

But I'd guess that there will not be so many in that fortunate position of great wealth?

Perhaps I should have added: For people living on a pension....

Wasn't this thread also about monthly income proof and or 800,000?

Thanks for your reply.
Could also be a combination of retirement pension from one's home country, combined one's small savings transferred to Thailand – believe those Brits that "wisely" left their savings at home, lost quite a bit baht during the last decade...

Thanks for your comment.

However, some Immigration Offices don't accept clinics (any more), only health check from a hospital.

Most Immigration offices don't request a Health certificate.

Only the odd 3/4 that do.

Koh Samui may be the only one that insists it's supplied by a hospital.

I know of two other IO's, but they accept a 50bht medical cert from a clinic.

A doctors certificate is not a requirement, however one or two offices make up their own rules and want one.
