Do I need to provide 3 months of bank statements when applying for a retirement visa in Thailand from my UK pension?

When applying for a retirement visa in Thailand, you will need a letter from the UK Embassy in Bangkok to confirm that you receive an income of 65,000 baht per month from your pension. However, the requirement for bank statements can vary. Many users reported that the Embassy typically requests documentation from your financial provider, such as letters verifying pension amounts, rather than requiring extensive bank statements. It seems that a few months of evidence may suffice, especially if you're drawing down from a pension pot rather than receiving a regular monthly pension. Be prepared to clearly demonstrate your income, as the documentation should be straightforward and verifiable.
