On the contrary good news, I would have thought, if your immigration office, like mine (Rayong), now requires evidence of monthly transactions relating to your 800k account, be this through a 12-month statement or passbook entries.

 

If only Krungsri were to start doing the same in the case of my dedicated 800k account, I would then be spared the chore of having to make token 10 THB transfers into it each month!

 

Interest is paid monthly to this account, I have one.

Like you, I used to make monthly transactions.  If there were no transactions SCB’s monthly statement showed nothing, not even the balance.  Eventually I didn’t bother and Immigration didn’t complain.

And it is contravention of the rules and you take that at your own risk. Accounts with a passbook do not need to take any risk.  It's just plain common sense. 

It is NOT a contravention of the rules. It may well be against the policy of a particular office or officer but it ISN'T in the rules
