Bank Letter

Featured Replies

I suppose the answer to the following question is TIT, but

I am applying for a 1 year retirement visa extension.

Why did I have to get a bank letter (200Baht) verifying my account

balance and that funds came from overseas when

the passbook marks every line entry with a code

that clearly shows the deposit came from foreign sources.

In my case it said FCH and the back of the passbook

shows all the codes and their explanation.

It seems to me that this is airtight evidence.

So why do they require the letter ???

:o:D

It confirms you have such an account with the amount stated on such a date. The passbook is not proof; only supporting evidence. :o

I asked the Immigration Officier the same question.

His reply was " the pass book might be a forgery "

My reply was " the letter might be a forgery"

There was then a long silence, a very long silence.

The letter needs to be no more than 1 week old.

The passbook may not be so recent,

and you might have taken all the money out through the ATM.

That is Thai logic for you!

Basically the Thai's do not trust anyone, even each other.

That is why they need id card and household papers for eveything.
