I am a little confused (not unusual for me) about the current requirement regarding the bank letter certifying the 800K in the bank for retirement purposes. In the past the letter I always got from the bank only said that "on (such and such a day) I had 800K in the bank".

Does the letter now need to certify that I had a "minimum or 800K in the bank for at least 3 months prior" to the issuance of the letter? Or just the normal bank letter as in the past showing my current balance along with my bank book showing that there has been more than 800K for at least the past three months?

If new wording from the bank is required, could someone put a copy of the wording online (with all personal data deleted of course)?

It seems to depend on the Immigration office used. As long as you have the passbook copies suspect that will be all that is required from Bangkok.

Thanks Lopburi! Your answers are always easy to understand. I appreciate that, as well as your wealth of knowledge of the immigration laws.
