ruddick Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 (edited) I have a bank account which I normally never let the balance go below 800K. New Year eve I mistakenly transferred money out of the number 1 account to my other Thai bank account. This resulted in the balance falling to 789K in the one account. I noticed the problem today and the balance is now over 800K again. During the time that 1 account was below 800K I still had well over 800K in the combined bank accounts. I have to show immigration in a few weeks that my balance is still above 800K. 3month after my visa extension. Does anyone know if a combination of two Thai bank accounts to show +800K is going to be a problem. Thanks.

Chris.B Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 (edited) In my opinion you are complying with the immigration rules however each office seem to have their own rules! ☹️ Update both books on the day you attend Immigration and do a lot of wais when you walk in. ????

JackGats Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 Should be ok if in the same bank. Otherwise maybe not. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asiaexpat Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 I have used two bank accounts to make the 800K for renewal of my extension. Just be sure to get a letter for each account from the bank. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrJack54 Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 (edited) You can use two accounts. Usually that would be with same bank. Perhaps an FD account along with a savings account. In fact this is what I use and both accounts appear on the ONE bank letter. I have also do it with 2 bank letters. One for each account. OP, you will need a letter from each bank with along with the usual photocopies of bb pages etc. As the norm in Thailand, there will be some immigration offices that will state that the 2 accounts need to be with one bank.

Eff1n2ret Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 Getting letters from the bank seems a bit OTT when the OP is only going for the 3-month post-extension check. The only time two years ago when this was a requirement at our local office (they didn't bother last year) I just turned up with the bank book.
