Guys ... in a couple of weeks I need to extend my visa based on retirement using money in the bank. As things may have changed there a little since the happy and very helpful boss left can anyone list what I need to provide now please.. who has done this recently ... I will take my wife with me and she usually does all the smiling and talking ... I just smile and nod! thanks.

Sorry the 't' didn't print in the title ... maybe a Mod will add the t for me ... thanks

I just renewed my retirement extension last Monday, although it was done at Chaeng Wattana. As long as your 800K or more has not dropped below the 800K limit in the last 3 months, you should have no problem.

For Nonthaburi, I don't know how far away your closest bank branch would be, they may require a letter from your bank dated the same day you are renewing your extension.

Thanks ... actually I really want a list of what Nonthaburi want ... copy of this, copy of that etc etc.

I don't believe the requirements would be much different:

Copy of your data page of passport.

Copy the passport page(s) of your past retirement extensions.

Copy the passport page that contains your last entry stamp into Thailand, with your last entry card.

Letter from your bank about the details of your bank account.

Copies of your bank book.

That should do it.

And additonal:

- photo (passport-sized ones)

- maybe they also need proof of your address, they are doing that in Khon Kaen at

least... Sometimes a thaidriver license can do the trick and some times an invoice with

your name and address also is OK. I myself are showing my yellow Book (tabien baan)

to the immigration

- And on top of this you shall fill in the application TM7

don't forget the hand drawn map of how to get to your house

They do not visit your house when on retirement extensions of stay. They might ask for location but it is not the deal it is for marriage extensions. I have never been asked for a map by immigration - even on marriage extension.

Ohh Nonthaburi Immigration office....

What they ask for out there can change from time to time...

My good friend was ask to bring a ATM Slip not more the 1 hour old, From the bank he have he´s money in...

Other one was ask to get a Bill. (power bill/water bill ect) to show he live at the place he put on as hes addresses...

Thanks for all your advice and experiences with your extension of retirement visa.

One question:

Do I have to do my extension application at the main immigration office at ChaengWattana,

or can I complete it a regional immigration office such as Hua Hin?

Many thanks for your advice/thoughts.

Schbang.

You do at the office serving your physical location so it will depend on where you live what office you use. Most provinces have there own office now (although a few still serve more than one province). Office locations/maps/service areas are all available in the pinned topic at top of forum as useful immigration information.

All done this morning ... no problems. Staff all in bright coloured shirts and appeared quite happy. Was busy though. Bet the staff will be pleased to see 4pm or whenever!

8:30 at bank to get Bank Deposit Confirmation Letter

9:30 at Immigration (90Day report took 10 minutes) a very nice happy and talkative guy ... the bar code system is not working apparently.

10:30 Finished Annual Extension and Re-entry Permit Paperwork, again the lady was very pleasant.

11;45 Get Passport Back .... completed.
