Not sure if this was asked here before, mod if you are sure it was answered, please point me to the correct URL link thanks.

 

My first NON-O extension with BKK immigration and will like to know, what are the validity period of the Thai and the English Bank certificate and statement are? If my appointment is at 09:00 O'clock on a Monday, or on a Tuesday, can I obtain these letters for immigration in BKK Friday if on Monday or Monday if on a Tuesday?

 

Nonthaburi Immigration Office, these letters were valid for (7) days from the date of issue, but I know all immigrations offices have different rules.

Just my 2THB - On your first extension, most including myself overthink everything. 
 

After a couple of extensions you develop a different attitude. You don’t know when your appointment is, but you are worrying about the timing of your bank letter.

 

I do mine the afternoon prior and find a bank that opens at 8.00 or 8.30 and get my bank book updated on the day, I don’t know what I would do if my appointment was on a Monday, but I schedule my visits to avoid the day after a weekend or bank holiday. 
 

Im with kasikorn and my bank letter format have changed over the years, it doesn’t confirm a figure over a number of months like it used to, they said they can’t confirm that now, yet when it changes, I panic and stress, they say there is nothing that immigration won’t accept and I go with it, and every time, it’s fine. 
 

Hope helps and, good luck.

Read the article and seems there need to me a link to the various posters immigration offices with this letter & statement requirements, as most have their own made up rules here.

Depends on which IO. In Chiang Mai it's one day and you also have to get a 12 month statement from your bank. I now live in Chiang Rai where the bank letter is valid for a week and they are happy with just a photocopy of your bank book.

Maybe you should also mention that with some banks it takes as long as 7 working days to get that statement. 3 and 6 Months same day.

 

A solution is to get a 6 month statements and then 6 months after that statement get another one (make sure the date over lapse) ????

I write this to state, that I have been to Bangkok Immigration Office at CW, and was told by the extension renewal officer (7) days they will accept the English Bank statement and Thai Certificate. 

 

In my humble opinion, best play safe and give a (1) or (2) days documents.

With our IO it's like this

 

1- First transfer money in

2- Go to Bank, get Bank Letter and update Bank Book (so both have the added funds from Step 1)

3- Photocopy relevant pages of Bank Book

4- goto Immigration
