1st 90—day after retirement extension

Featured Replies

  • Popular Post

I did my first 90 day report after my latest retirement extension at the Thayang/Phetchaburi IO.

 

For my extension I used the 800k funds method three months ago. So I expected them to check again as advertised.

It went smoothly and they did not request or want to see my proof of funds in bank. In and out in 15 minutes.

 

Requirements clearly differ from one office to another.

 

Of course I was dressed, showered, perfumed, and shaven, but I think it was my hansum man status that did the trick. The female IO officer simply could not focus on her job! ????

What made you think they would want proof the 800k baht was still in the bank. 

There is nothing in the rules stating it has be done.

I am only aware a couple of offices telling people to return after 3 months to to prove it is there,

I thought the whole point of coming back after 90 days was to prove you still had the 800k in the bank. Am i missing something?

Since it has only been required by a couple of IOs (Jomtiem and up North), it is not a general requirement or even a regulation. (Also only applies to those on retirement extensions based on money in the bank).

 

You still have to confirm your address every 90 consecutive days in Thailand.

Actually that is not the primary reason for the report. It is primarily a report of staying longer than 90 consecutive days in the country.

Yes the 90 day report and 90 day bank account check are completely separate issues.

My 90 day report is due next month.

I did my extension with money in bank at Chonburi last month and was given the attached to report Sept 23 for money verification.

I did my yearly retiremet extension in Samui today,  the girl told me when you will come for your next 90 days, you will have to show me  there is still minimum 800.000 ฿ on your saving account! And later never under 400.000฿, because I told here I did not understand well this new paper on her desk about the retirement documents. Last month I came to enquire about  the conditions to be sure about my extension being not far and she gave me another paper, at the time not a word of the money having to remain after the extension! Here is are copies of both. in fact I am aware of this difference, huge in practice, the very day of my extension, if I had had only a few thousand ฿ in addition to the 800,000฿ it has already happened several times,  I should have done quickly to send me money from my country. For instance my yearly rent is 30 days after my extension. OK I have credit cards  so I can always help myself except that the ATM exchange rate is not the same.

90 day notices have nothing to do with the 800 K or 400K in account. And they have been required by many IO in all over the country for decades. That said certain offices might want to check up. If they do I am sure the will inform you as other wise many people just file them by mail, or online. which has nothing regarding banck account info.

"90 day notices have nothing to do with the 800 K or 400K in account. And they have been required by many IO in all over the country for decades" ????/

For decade no question of any amount staying in the bank after the yearly the extension was accorded,  so nothing was never asked!

 This one is my eighth annual extension in Koh Samui.

Once month ago when I saw the number 12 : "Document for Notification of the residence of the foreigner"....Please contac www.suratimmigration.go.th.  I did it,  filled  the  (new) case "what is your question", I received no answer...

I had to file 90 day notices starting back in 07/08 for 5 years back in nakhon nowhere. The peoplel I knew both working or retired in the "region" all had to do this. Obviously this had nothing to do with bank accounts, keeoing money in account etc, at that time.
