does any one know if its possible to get your bank statement online through your banking app instead of going in to the bank to order and wait a week for it. For yearly extension.
Answer summary
The conversation reveals mixed experiences regarding obtaining bank statements for visa extension purposes in Thailand. While some users report that certain banks like UOB and Krungsri allow online access to bank statements, most participants emphasize that an official stamped letter from the bank is typically required for immigration. Bangkok Bank users often mention delays in statement availability and the need to visit branches for required documentation. Each bank and immigration office seems to have different standards, complicating the process.

Every time I go to get a year statement from Kasikorn there is no wait other than the time it takes to do ๐Ÿ˜‰

As others have said you need the letter signed by the manager and not just the statement, the statement also needs to be stamped and signed ๐Ÿ˜‰

Maybe try a bank somewhere that isn't always busy and you won't have to wait so long ๐Ÿ™‚

You can print a statement from your app. At least at k bank you can but I think you need a certified copy from the bank for immigration.

If you are thinking about getting it for a extension of stay then it wouldn't help as you also need a letter from the bank. I would change banks if you have to wait for a statement, I'm with Kasikorn and they can print a 12 month statement at any branch without having to pre-order it. I keep the 800k in a Pattaya branch and the Khon Kaen branch prints the statement and letter for my extension.

Kgrunsgri did my one year statement while i waited in Udon thani. They had to contact the head office in Bangkok first and I paid one hundred baht. Total time was about 30 minutes.

Tried with kasikorn.

Easy to get the download but Korat immigration wonโ€™t accept.

Has to be on bank paper signed on on that day you apply for extension.

Crazy I know.

Before it could be up to 7 days old but not now.

Would be better even if they say can get day before would help but no.

I had statements, but they would only accept a signed letter from Bangkok Bank, and the bank Refused. I had open an account at Kasikorn Bank and do the deposits for the next 12 months and then I can get my 800,000 back because Kasikorn will provide the needed letter.

Most other banks aside from Bangkok bank can print your yearly statement in 10 minutes. Bangkok bank takes 3-4 working days.

Did this last week and this is the only answer you need if you are with Bangkok Bank.

Yes, your app has the facility to produce a statement going back 12 months. You can print this out. But you still have to go to branch to get the accompanying letter. They will sign the letter and the statement. This will save you a week (the time it normally takes to get the statements), and means you only have to visit branch once. My extension was given with no issues.

My statement was emailed within one minute.

*Note - I have 800k in account, no other transactions and the book has to be updated same time as the letters and statement signed.

OP
TaupeRaspberry5284 That is exactly what I want if it can work, one trip get all papers, did you use your mobile banking app. Wait a week for a a statement is ridiculous. I live in a rural area closet bank is 5o kilometers. So you got an email, then printed out the statement, then went to bank , up date passbook, get certificate paper from bank and then they sign and stamp you statement , is that correct. I put the money in an fixed account, it was supposed to make it so that no statement was needed, of course that fell through quickly.

TaupeRaspberry5284 Having 800k in the bank is not the same as monthly, 800k will most likely be a single page, maybe two, monthly income can be many more, I used the same account for all my transactions for many years and to go the income route with a bank statement it was a stack of paper, not something you could just print and they'd trust it was correct in the bank ๐Ÿ˜‰

Yes, itโ€™s why I mentioned this very fact at the end. But the bank would check the printed monthly statements against your book, and stamp each page etc etc โ€ฆ you know they love paperwork !

I use the monthly income method and printed my 12 month statements, then took them to Bkk Bank and they stamped them and issued their letter etc for Hua Hin immigration.
Ben *******
Ben *******
Stuart Chiverton Did the bank check them?

I highly doubt they'd stamp and sign statements YOU printed without checking first, I mean how easy would it be for you to edit them to your needs and then get them signed with no checks, the agencies would lose their businesses over night ๐Ÿคฃ

Be honest, you went to the bank, they printed them, got the manager to stamp and sign them, they gave you the confirmation letter and updated your bank book right ;)

If you could go with a pre printed statement, get it stamped and get the letter with no checks then you are paying somebody, how did they deal with the bank book? ๐Ÿคฃ
Stuart ***********
Stuart ***********
Ben Serge why the feck would I lie, don't be stupid. Guess what, the bank has a computer system and they can cross check them.

I did it myself, I have never used an agent.
Ben *******
Ben *******
Stuart Chiverton Why would bank staff put themselves in a situation of possible fraud?

I didn't dispute you doing it yourself, it's easy, I've been doing it myself for over a decade, almost two ๐Ÿ˜‰

What I am disputing is that you printed off statements and took them to the bank where the bank staff stamped them, the manager signed them and gave you a confirmation letter without checking first ๐Ÿ˜‰

I'd assume you went to the bank and they saw what you wanted so printed off a fresh statement for you on bank headed paper (as required by immigration) signed them, gave you the letter and threw the statement you brought to them in the rubbish bin ๐Ÿคฃ

Have a nice day ๐Ÿ‘‹

I can get a 12 month statement from my Bangkok bank app. But the bank needs a few days to get one. ๐Ÿ˜‚

However for Chonburi immigration the banks has to give me a signed statement proving that I have the เธฟ800 in the bank. After which the immigration officer was happy to see a printed version of my soft copy statement.

That should have read a signed letter showing balance only and confirming I I've ad the funds in the bank.

I guess you're talking about bangkok bank. You have to be careful with the online statement as it might not cover the period you need to show at immigration, when you get a 12 month statement online it only shows the current month and the previous 11 months. If you're using the 800k method immigration want to see the statements going back beyond the date you got your current extension which might not be possible. You can however when you fill out the form in the bank requesting statements ask for them to be emailed to you and they usually arrive just after lunch the following day covering whatever period stipulated on the form.

As Ian stated above some immigration offices may want you to get them stamped by your bank
