Can the 400k be in any bank for 2 months (marriage extension)

[alexlm]

Hello

 

Can the 400k be in ANY Thai bank for 2 months? (marriage extension).

 

I feel like it's only possible with a SCB account but I may be wrong. This is why I'm asking the question...

 

Also, if someone sends me 11,000 Euros (410,000 THB) from France. Would that be a problem? Would they accept those 400k financial proof?

 

Thank you

Alex

The money can be in any Thai bank for 2 months on the date you apply.

No problem to transfer the funds in as long as it is in the bank soon enough to have it there for 2 months.

Can you have 200,00 baht in 2 different Thai bank accounts?

Yes as long as both accounts are in your name only.

The National rule is 2 months in the bank.

How to prove that it stayed 2 months in the bank?

Update the book bank right after the 11,000€ arrived in the Thai Bank? Or/And update the book bank right before going to immigration? Or both?

Or do we need 3 statements for each months showing that it was there more than 2 months?

Question for anyone who can help

 

the 40,000 baht requirement - can this be considered from two peoples wages? The husbands 35,000 baht salary and the wife's 20,000 baht salary, with savings making up the rest to total 400,000 baht?

Just your updated bank book showing the funds have been in the account for 2 months prior to the date you apply is enough.

It has to be your income only. There is no combination of income and money in the bank allowed for an extension based upon marriage.

As said, it has to be your income or salary.

There is nothing to stop your Wife putting money into your bank account.

So when do I have to update the bank book? I never use or update my bank book so I'm not sure how it works, how it will show up, and when to update it. Do I have to update it right after the funds have been transferred? Or right before going to immigration? Or both?

That contains so much wrong information. Not worth reading.

Update it on the day you apply if possible.

They might accept the day before.

A good few years ago they changed the rules on combined incomes.

How do they calculate the 2 months period? Let's say I have the amount on my account from 20/11/2018, can I extend on 20/1/2019?
