Non-O Visa Visa Extension Thailand Immigration Retirement Visa Bank Statement Requirements Chiang Mai Immigration

ORIGINAL POSTER

Thanks to the contributions made by the moderators and members of this group, I successfully obtained my 90-day Non-O visa based on retirement in June.

Today, I am returning to the Kingdom and planning to visit the Chiang Mai immigration office tomorrow morning to apply for my yearly extension of stay. I would be grateful if anyone could tell me whether I could only present a 6-month bank statement (that I can get an instant print-out tomorrow) instead of a 1-year bank statement? (Bangkok bank says they need 3 days to prepare) Since I am basing my application on the 800K deposit method (which is already 2 months seasoned) rather than the 65K monthly method?  Thank you very much!

TLDR : Answer Summary

The user is seeking advice on whether they can use a 6-month bank statement for their yearly extension of stay based on the 800K deposit method for their Non-O visa. They receive feedback indicating that a 3-month statement is sufficient for their first yearly extension, as their funds have been seasoned for 2 months, but they must ensure their bank book is updated on the day of application.

You will be fine with just a 3 month print out because this is the first yearly extension you're getting on a NEW Non-O 90 day visa and the seasoning is just 2 months before you apply.

you need to get the 3 month transaction history report, the 'standard' bank letter and update the bank book the day you go to the immigration office for the extension

Chiang Mai allows the bank letter and the transaction report to be up to 7 days old, but the bank book has to be updated the day you apply for the extension
