Khun Roberto Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 Can I get the letter from the bank on one day, and the next day go to CW immigration super early, and get my passbook updated at the ATM there? I’ve had a Non O for five years using the Embassy affidavit for income verification, but for next renewal I’m planning on using the 800k deposit method instead.

DrJack54 Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 The "bank letter" can be up to 7 days early. Don't follow why you need to apply for it day prior. At CW the banks know what you require. You can make a deposit of say 100b to show activity and the bank prepares letter after the deposit is made. You would also need to provide photocopies of bank book pages to show monthly deposits for previous 12 months (income method) and previous 2 months showing balance of 800k Bank letter 100b 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just an updated pass book and the letter, although this year they also insisted on statements for some reason but no deposit!

First thing in the morning is to go to bank. And only after that to immigration. Let's not go through the 75 immigration offices. Many threads on this. Most offices will accept "bank letter" prior to day of application. The OP mentions CW and that office will certainly accept letter obtained earlier. https://aseannow.com/topic/1290982-same-day-passbook-update-and-bank-letter-required-for-extension-of-stay-at-bangkok-immigration/ 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers, If your bank has a branch at CW you can do it all there on the day. And no need to go "super early", just make an appointment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I make appointment for first slot after lunch CW. Do banking and any photocopying prior to that on lower level. Personally I do it all on day of application however have done it days prior in my initial years at CW. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Dr Jack I like to go super early with all my docs ready so I can be sure to get the IO extemsion and the exit permits all done the same day. I'll get the Bank letter a day or two prior, and after I've got my queue number, go to the ATM to get he passbook updated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your plan is very sensible. You mention"exit permits" If you mean reentry permit be aware you can obtain that at airport on day of departure. CW can be super busy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow, so that's 24/7, right at the Immigration check out counter? 200 thb is a bargain for the convinience. 🙂 Edited May 17 by Khun Roberto Posted too soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At DMK the office is just other side of passport control. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
