When changing visa to new passport (retirement) does one have to show the bank book with 800k balance ?

It's referred to as "transferring stamps" 

Visa information is also entered into new passport. 

Regarding the bank book showing financial compliance....yes, that is required at CW and no doubt some other offices.

Photocopies of pages back to current extension along with updated bank account.

This is a new requirement.

Maybe I would prefer that the government does not know I have a Thai address.

 

Are you a little paranoid? 

 

If you're an Aussie pensioner the Oz gov't know your outside of Oz (or inside oz) through their 24/7 online access to immigration records (continuous automatic scrutiny of arrivals and departure passport numbers).

 

If your passport number is spotted (out or in) the details are automatically added to your CLink file.
