Do I need to provide 12 months of bank statements for a Thai visa extension?

@Larry ******

It’s outlined in Immigration Order . It can be googled and printed out

@Larry ******

1. Be armed with information. Bring the extension of stay requirements

2. Be nice and laugh. Willing to accept some reasonable compromises (hand drawn map to the house for example)

3. Request for the head office in Bangkok to review the extension of stay request.

from what I've been told started on a 3 month marriage visa then had 6 months of covid extentions so only been in country 9 months hard to have 12 months proof with only 9 months in country

@Ken *******

hang about, I said i've never seen someone off a brand new 90 day Non-O pull it off (meaning they'd have only 3 months of transfers)

BUT

I have seen people who had a Non-O back last march, start their transfers, go on amnesty, get embassy letters, and then go on a covid extension (which gave them over 9 months of transfers BUT not a year) pull it off.

IF you have 9 months of transfers of 40K baht a month each month, every month since you entered on your Non-O you MIGHT <- (as in maybe) be able to pull it off.

That's totally gonna be between you and the immigration office you deal with.

Most offices stick fast to the 12 months of transfers and will tell you to used banked money method if you want a year extension. Check with your immigration office to see what they say.

@Tod ********

not for me. I'm on a retirement visa last time I got a years extension in Phuket they wanted 3 years of bank details. I couldn't believe it.

Luckily I kept my old book

Sadly

@K**

that you accepted their nonsense request is on you.

If you're using banked money you now show a year of transaction history to make sure that your 800K baht was in your account for 3 months after your last extension and then the balance didn't go below 400K baht for the rest of the year.

BUT

there is no "three years of bank details" requirements. I'da called them on their b/s request..

@Tod ********

I had both books on me at immigration was easier to just do it than argue
