Hello. Last time I did my retirement extension at Jomtien (July) the IO informed me that from now on I must also provide a signed copy of my Thai wife’s ID and Tabian Baan of where we live. Signed by her not me. This is my 10th retirement extension and I have not been asked for this before. I am on a Non-O retirement using the 800k in the bank method and have cable tv and internet bills in my name as proof of address. The IO was very kind about it and just said it was a new requirement. Anyone else experienced this? Thanks.

Yes, I was asked for this for my last extension in October 2024. 

 

Edit to add: Jomtien, retirement, monthly income in my case.

It's fairly normal to be requested to supply evidence of one's address in the form of signed copies of the Tabien Baan and ID card of the houseowner, be it wife, girlfriend, or a landlord.
Standard part of the documentation requirements for the last 12 years for me.

Hello. Thanks for your feedback, much appreciated..
