Thanks. That would be kind of a killer criterion.
Adding another form of complication.

 

Second week of October I will go for extension with a pile of statements from Bangkok Bank in three(!) different forms.

1) One year to be ordered a week ahead! (200 Baht) plus probably an added -> 2)

2) Six months issued on the spot. (100 Baht) (would need two to three :tongue: to cover 12 transfers)

3) Self printed statements ordered online and received via email.

 

If they are OK with 3) I would probably drop the idea.

Hope they will as the bank book and letter is still required to show.

 

If someone wonders why it's a new topic for me:

many years I used the lazy 800k bank book method.

But I simply want to free the money as my pensions are well over 65k.

What immigration office?  Jomtien requires a special letter from your bank listing just your 12 deposits and containing a statement staying that they were all foreign transfers. The letter takes a week to prepare. 

A pile of self prepared printed statements is not what they want. 

BBL knows how to do it. I don't know about other banks.

Khon Kaen fortunately and not Jomtien or Bangkok.

And as you can read above it's ok with bank statements in official form/print.

I have decided to change to Kasikorn after the extension for their much easier handling of the statements.

With them I will be able to do all necessary bank paperwork in the morning (same day) before driving to immigration.

My IO (Udon) said they would only accept money from a retirement account (they mentioned Social Security). I asked Siam Legal who said all foreign transfers are acceptable. However my local IO doesn't agree.
