Hello, I need clarification please. In case of a request for a one-year extension of the non-immigrant visa O + 50 years (retirement). I said O and not OA. On the criteria of income required of 65000bth/month for a Frenchman, if I provide a certificate on the honor of the French Embassy in BKK as my monthly income is more than 65000bath/month, can you confirm that the document is accepted by the BI please? And ask more and more about this document, opening a bank account in Thailand and proof of transfers of 65,000 baht/month? Thank you for your help.

Bonjour, jai besoin d’éclairage svp. Dans le cas d’une demande d’extension d’un an du visa non immigrant O + 50ans (retraite). Jai bien dis O et non OA. Sur le critère des revenus exigés de 65000bth/mois pour un français, si je fournis une attestation sur l’honneur de l’ambassade de France à BKK comme quoi mes revenus mensuels sont supérieurs à 65000bath/mois, pouvez vous me confirmer que que le document est accepté par le BI svp? Et demandent en plus en plus de ce document, l’ouverture d’un compte bancaire en thailande et la preuve de virements de 65000 baths/mois? Merci pour votre aide.
TLDR : Answer Summary
The user seeks clarification on whether a certificate from the French Embassy affirming their monthly income of over 65,000 baht will be accepted by Thai immigration when applying for a one-year extension of their Non-Immigrant O visa. Community responses confirm that such a document, considered an affidavit, is acceptable as an alternative to the usual requirement of a larger bank deposit. Additionally, it is noted that a Thai bank account can be opened with this visa type, and there may be tax implications for proving the income.
