ORIGINAL POSTERQuestion about the 65k monthly income method for retirement visa extension: should all the monthly deposits be done to the same bank, or would it be okay for 11 deposits to one bank and one deposit to another bank? TIA.
TLDR : Answer Summary
The consensus is that to simplify the process for your retirement visa extension in Thailand, it is best to have all 12 monthly deposits of 65,000 Thai Baht made into the same bank account. While the requirement is simply a total of 65,000 Baht deposited each month for 12 months, using different accounts could complicate your application and double the amount of paperwork needed.

The only requirement is 65k each month for 12 months.

Not the simplest way to get to “YES” if you ask me.

Make it as simple as possible for them to say yes. It also doubles your paperwork required.

KEEP it SIMPLE and have ALL of the 12 months of the 65,000 Thai baht bank deposits be in the SAME ACCOUNT
THEN arrange for the deposits into another bank account in your name only in Thailand.
