Information requested with regard to 800000 Baht in bank for retirement visa

[Delight]

Have the circumstances changed?

 

It seems that evidence that 800K has been in the applicants bank account  for 2 months-prior to application date is unchanged.

Historically a 2 nd visit with  a  similar letter was required 3 months after the application was approved.

It appears that this 2nd visit is now no longer required.

Is this the case?

[Upnotover]

Not every office ever asked for the "3 months later" evidence.  I don't think it was ever a genuine requirement only something some offices decided would be good to irritate people.

I just did mine in Jomtien and they didn’t give me a form or ask me to come back in 3 months to show proof of money. To be honest I never did when they gave me the form and never had any issues. Granted I always have at least 800,000 baht in the bank account. I’m sure each immigration department is different.

It was Jomitien that played that silly game and for those that did return there was never a record made of the visit.

Ignore it

The checking is done on the next extension application. If the IO finds that the 3 month rule and/ or the amount went below 400K then the extension application will be rejected.

I was given a form and am doing my 2nd visit today. Only takes a few minutes so best not to ignore it i think.
