That would mean at worse 5% of British expats, not 50% I read somewhere (can't remember where) that about half of expats use income letters. You're suggesting that at least 95% of British expats use the bank deposit method? Really? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post JimGant Posted October 17, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted October 17, 2018 Quote As Stat decs were discontinued years ago (in favour of the current system to prevent the 12 hr trip to bkk & the security threat posed by a potentially attractive target) this is unlikely. And if the Yanks and Aussies are allowed to continue as they have with their income statements, it will become apparent that the Thais prefer form over function, i.e., gov't to gov't interface will be in accordance with established diplomatic and consular procedures. And the Yanks and Aussies require the well established form of in-person attestation and oath administration. But, if the BE comes to the conclusion that it doesn't have the resources to require in-person attestation -- even tho' the workload would certainly diminish from the current mail-in numbers -- don't expect income letters in the future (unless the Thais decide to sidestep traditional consular protocol and allow mail-ins -- but only for certifiable government pensions, as in the Swiss example). Sorry to ramble, but the history of consular relationships is enlightening, particularly with the current subject matter (from US sources): Quote "Notarial and authentication services are one of the oldest traditional consular functions dating back to Statute I, Session I, Chapter 24 of April 14, 1792, 'An Act Concerning Consuls and Vice Consuls'." "Notarial functions of consuls are included in the earliest treaties dating back to the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. In modern times, ... of the multilateral Vienna Convention on Consular Relations of 1963, 21 U.S.T. 77, authorizes consular officers to perform notarial functions." "Notarizing officers at U.S. Embassies and Consulates require the personal appearance of the person requesting the notarial service; establish the identity of the person requesting the service; establish that the person understands the nature, language and consequences of the document to be notarized; and establish that the person is not acting under duress." Anyway, the one thing that notarizing officers can't do is authenticate or certify documents (except passports and/or the seals on foreign documents). This is spelled out specifically on the US Embassy website for Thailand. But, it's curious to see this inclusion: Quote Affidavits Oftentimes the Thai government requests the U.S. Embassy or Consulate General Chiang Mai to “certify” documents listed under “services we cannot provide.” Please note the Embassy and Consulate CAN notarize an affidavit which may or may not satisfy the Thai requirement for “certification.” And, I guess, that remains to be seen re the Yanks. As for the Brits -- good luck with that crowd of your less than inspiring "diplomats." 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Shoeless Joe Posted October 17, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted October 17, 2018 In retrospect I think everyone reading the TV posts on this subject understands that the radio interview with the woefully inadequate, second-rate, British Embassy staffer was less than useful. Not least of all because the responses to the questions were either ambiguous or just plain wrong and which were only prompted by the gentle, obsequious probing by a sycophantic interviewer, (which didn't help either)! For goodness sake, as a result of the furore generated by this statement why on earth has this not been followed up? Would it not be reasonably easy for "The Nation" newspaper (aka ThaiVisa?), to use their investigative-reporting clout to get the British Embassy to come up with some useful and meaningful answers to the important questions regarding their (the British Embassy's) decision to stop the "Pension Letters" with no prior consultation with members of the ex-pat community and even more disgracefully, having known about it and kept it secret, since May 2018? This high-handed attitude surely has to stop! Regards, Joe 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IF Thai immigration will not accept proof of income or equivalent foreign transfers into a Thailand bank account (early indications say they won't), and insists on the 400,000/800,000 -seasoned- bank deposits... Even IF Thai immigration continues to accept the British Embassy letters up to 6 months old (not guaranteed)... ...some of those retired or married Brits who use the "income" method (like me), and whose extensions are due after 12 June 2019 (like me) will have to deposit the lump sum into their (solo) Thai bank accounts before 12 March 2019.

As for the Brits -- good luck with that crowd of your less than inspiring "diplomats." Excellent post and research. It should be noted that the US: UK and Thailand are signatories of the Convention and as such accept the fact that Statutory Declarations are legal instruments. IMHO- if an applicant signs and swears an Oath that what they are stating is true, it should be accepted as such with the provision that , if found otherwise, the applicant then becomes subject to prosecution under both the home countries law (US, UK) and Thai Law. To me, based upon all of this- there is no reason for Thailand NOT to accept the declaration and no reason for any Embassy not to issue the letter/Statutory Declaration. Also, remember that a stat dec can be made for many other things- such as legal documents; financial matters; attesting to veracity of income to obtain a mortgage-loan.

As a Brit I find it amassing that the BE managed for years to "buck the system" by allowing people to email documents for them to then issue this certificate of income. As I said in another post I would be quite happy to provide them with original documents to substantiate my income submission but they simply did not want them. Clearly this, has many have already said, opened the system up to abuse. Also as many others likewise stated, if you have original documents to enable you to honestly obtain a certificate of income, then no worries. Who knows how many have have bucked the system up to now ? How many have used VISA agents to do likewise ? It is probably these folk who should be the most worried. However unless there really is change coming to Immigration, led by "Big Joke" to stop the corruption within the Thai system, then I guess these VISA agents will unfortunately continue to flourish by providing a ways and means for people to buck the system. Perhaps if the application costs for extensions were altered so that the application for retirement extensions were say 50,000 baht then that in itself may be a deterrent for those attempting to cheat, whilst allowing the extension due to marriage to remain as is. This which would not impact those married with children, whom together with their families actually contribute to the future good of Thailand rather than the profits of beer bars in many cases perhaps often frequented by single retirees judging by many posts on TV.

I. like you. and the majority of people actually can prove their income stream by various methods. Whether the Embassy wants them or not is up to them. I have always carried back up proof when visiting Thai Imm. To me, the missing piece is when the BE decided to NOT make their citizens swear an Oath that under penalty of perjury etc etc that the info submitted is true. If an Embassy does this (make them swear an Oath) - and the Thai Imm has an issue at least they can say that the applicant has sworn an Oath- that they have told the truth and that you-the Thai Imm- always have the right to ask for proof. If you then find someone has lied- you can notify the Embassy and also refer the case to a Thai prosecutor as it is against the law to a Thai official. As an outsider looking at this- rather than say to Thai Imm- we are not doing this anymore- I would have changed the letter a bit- make it a statutory declaration and have the citizen take the Oath and let the system continue. What we have now is a huge mess. There are also other options that would work-including outsourcing the letter to a trusted legal office that employees British lawyers and there are many in Bangkok. I am sure there are British citizens out there who could work with the Embassy and come up with a suitable solution to preserve what has worked for decades or make some acceptable changes to the letter (make it a stat dec!) that would be acceptable to all. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Expattaff1308 Posted October 18, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted October 18, 2018 A reply to my mail to the Embassy.... I am sorry to learn that you are unhappy with the announcement that we intend to withdraw from providing a Pension letter in Thailand from 1 January 2019. I appreciate the difficulties that can accompany such a change in services. Our British Embassy in Bangkok currently issues a pension letter as a supporting document for British nationals applying for a Thai retirement or marriage visa application. The Thai authorities have confirmed that they want the British Embassy to verify the income of British nationals which they are unable to do. They/We would refer such requests to the issuing authority. Therefore, the current letter does not fulfil the Thai authorities requirements so we need to stop issuing it so it is not misinterpreted as verification. We are unable to provide a Statutory Declaration to fulfil these requirements as this is not a service which we provide. The services which are provided by the British Embassy can be found here; https://www.gov.uk/guidance/notarial-and-documentary-services-guide-for-thailand#services-we-provide-in-thailand When withdrawing a service we do look at what other options are available to the customer to assist them in meeting the requirements of the receiving authority. There is an alternative for customers to demonstrate that they meet the financial requirement for their retirement or marriage visa by holding a Thai bank account showing the minimum funds needed. To assist customers, our Embassy in Bangkok has published details on their website of the change in service and what option is available to customers and what those requirements are.

Obviously Thai Immigration is behind this move so for once the British Embassy is not to blame. It would seem that in due course all other Embassies will be affected. I have never understood why a copy of UK bank statement and a Thai Bank statement hasn't been sufficient evidence for Immigration. I know of people who do falsify the information that they give the Embassy to verify. Those people have caused the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
