Medallion Signature Guarantee Stamp

Featured Replies

Does anyone know of a bank(s) here in Phuket that can issue a "medallion signature guarantee" ? It is a green undated stamp . I have been informed by John Hancock Mutual Fund that to encash my investment with them which is in the U.S.) I will have to send them a letter of instruction to do so and it MUST have a medallion guarantee stamp on it. I asked if I could just get a notary to witness my signature and they said no.

Sorry, this was meant for the Phuket Forum, not Pattaya......

Bangkok branches of bank of america,citibank, scotia bank and jp morgan seem the most likely candidates - don't think any branches in Phuket. As to the Thai banks ability to do this not so sure.

Suggest contacting the SEC direct in any event for them to confirm who is authorised to do it.

AFAIK consular staff etc. can't do it and differs from notary in that its backed by guarantee.

My mutual fund also requires it, and I had a devil of a time in the USA (in a small town) finding a bank that had ever heard of such a thing. However, my mutual fund does not require a medallion if the cash is sent to my address of recrod.

Thanks PeaceBlondie. I have contacted them and it will be sent to the address of record AFTER they receive the instructions with a medallion guarantee signature; no exceptions. I'll keep working on it..........

Thanks thaiwanderer......I probably will have to make a trip to Bangkok to try it there as I doubt no one here will know what it is. I had never heard of it either.
