John Chiang Mai Posted October 25, 2018 Share Posted October 25, 2018 I am from America, retired living in Thailand. Regarding income verification, I think Thailand Immigration should accept American Bank Statements as proof of income. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bumofdabeach Posted October 25, 2018 Share Posted October 25, 2018 Not sure but I think it has to be in a Thai bank. You may think so but if they don't think so it ain't up for consideration. Ain't easy hanging around here.

EL159 Posted October 25, 2018 Share Posted October 25, 2018 NO! Have you been reading these threads? Thailand needs proof that you are BRINGING INTO THAILAND an average of 65,000 per month, or that you have 800,000 in a Thai bank account. Theyre not interested in what you have back home, they want to see that youre bringing money into the country to cover your lifestyle. OK? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I go to savanaket for my marriage visa they don't ask for financial proofSent from my SM-J250F using Thailand Forum - Thaivisa mobile app 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless things actually change you can still do a income affidavit to prove your income. They might accept a bank statements showing income going it your account as back up proof for the affidavit if needed at immigration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John7777 Posted October 26, 2018 Share Posted October 26, 2018 It’ll be interesting to see how this new change plays out. I’m getting ready to return to SE Asia for retirement and will need to comply with whatever requirements they come up with. I actually receive about 2x the required amount every month, not including investment income, so transferring the 65,000 baht per month wouldn’t be a problem, as I would normally spend more than that anyway. Alternatively, I suppose I could just wire in the 800,000. Anyway, for planning purposes it would be nice to have a clear and unambiguous set of rules. infeel sorry for all the people caught up in a mess. Imagine having property and then having to leave.

Actually the requirements haven't changed just the verification process. I'd be hard pressed to spend 65k a month over here, but then I don't drink or chase tail. My monthly bills here are right around 5k a month depending on how much I use my a.c..
