Im married to a Thai but we have our money in shared accounts. Basically her account and I have access to it.

Can we simply transfer 400.000 THB to my account a few weeks before reporting to immigration?

So far I simply left the country every 90 days but we want to start with the reporting now.

Anything else we need to sort out?

You need to have it an account in your name for two months prior to applying for extension of stay.

Awesome thanks a lot! Nothing else besides the documents are necessary right?

9. Map to residency (names of roads and house marked in Thai and GPS coordinates)

10. 3 Pictures, one showing you outside the house with wife and house number visible, One in bedroom, One showing time relaxing.

11. Copy house book from residence (signed by owner and a signed copy of their ID Card, as this may not be the wife in some cases) or rental contract.

12: Copy of the letter from the MFA showing you were able to marry

With money in bank option.

1. Letters from your bank same day or day before stating bank records, and a transaction list for the past two months.

2. Bank account must be in Husbands name, joint accounts will not qualify.

3. Letter from bank must show transaction during previous two months.

With Income in Thailand option

2. Personal Corporation income Tax (PND.1) in latest 3 months and personal income tax for previous year with receipt (PND.91) with receipt showing it has been paid

With Income from abroad.

1. Embassy letter stating your income.

All of the above in two copies, if not in BKK

Cheers man! Awesome!

Oh actually one more question. Do we need to show all of this every 90 days? So basically the 400.000 will be frozen on my account as long as we do this I guess.

You do the extension once per year.

You first get one month under consideration and then the remaining 11 months.

90 day reporting is a separate process, first extension counts as a 90 day report.

90 day reporting is just an address confirmation that you can send someone else to do or in some provinces by mail.

Very helpful but what is the MFA?

MFA is ministry of foreign affairs.

As you are married abroad you will need the Kor ror 22 instead.

This is the registration of your marriage in Thailand

Thank you sir. It was the first I’d heard of that mentioned which makes sense now.

Two months prior to applying at immigration or two months before extension expires?

2 months prior to date of application not date of expiry of current extension.

My experience was at Samui immigration 2015, is your answer correct for every immigration office in Thailand today?

 

Really, any question like this must specify office because everyone makes their own rules, even officers within the same office have different rules.

 

Nowdays I have a BOI extension and WP, much better.
