Do I need to show bank statements and take an ATK test for the first 90-day reporting in Thailand?

I will have to do the 90 day address reporting for the first time this week. I have been told that for the first time only you need to do that in person. Two questions:

1. Do you need to show your bank books that you still have 800,000 baht in the bank. Some people said I needed that.

1. Do you need to do an ATK test before they allow you in the building (Muong Thon Thani right?).

TLDR : Answer Summary
For the 90-day address reporting in Thailand, you do not need to show bank statements proving you have 800,000 baht in the bank, as this process isn't connected to financial requirements. Additionally, it has been indicated that you do not need to take an ATK test to enter the reporting office in Muang Thon Thani.

It's not part of the reporting but I think you do need to show you still have the money.

. Irrelevant to the Op. They are in Bkk and are going to MTT and CW for their immigration stuff. Jomtien probably has their own rules, a lot of them do. Simple solution is to take updated bankbook with them anyway just in case, but MTT don't check.
Scot *******
@Steven **************
- well now we are getting somewhere. Information was provided based on our experience. Try hard not to be so rude.
Steven ***************
@Scot ******
. Your experience is based on an immigration office that they are not going to. This is the problem with regional offices, they make their own rules.
Scot *******
@Steven **************
- yep, she just gave our experience. The attacks were not called for.
Steven ***************
@Scot ******
. Attacks? Dont be so sensitive..

Incorrect information can cause nightmares when it comes to thai immigration. Personal experience means nothing unless you've used same office . I only use Bangkok imm so I only reply to questions about Bkk imm

I suggest you both do the same to avoid confusion.
Scot *******
@Steven **************
- hers was correct information. Your confusion is on you. I suggest you do better to try to avoid it next time, and don't be so sensitive.
Bonnie *******
@Steven **************
it is not irrelevant to the post. The post asks about the funds reporting
Steven ***************
@Bon***
. Post mentions Muang Thong Thani, they have nothing to do with retirement extensions. Why would they check the funds in bank for 90 days when they have nothing to do with that extension and don't process them?

This is why everyone else is saying there is no need because they won't be at MTT doing their extension.
Scot *******
@Steven **************
- that wasn't your reply. You should have made that point early on instead of the attack.

@Bonnie ******
you think but you don’t know so don’t add confusion by posting comments unless you know 100%
Bonnie *******
@Damien *******
your money has to be seasoned. They check to make sure it is in your account. It's just coincidence that this happens close to your first 90 day report. No you do not have to know 100 percent to have an opinion in here
Darren *******
@Bonnie ******
you don't need to show any money or bank statements when doing your 90 day report.
Scot *******
@Darren ******
- she didn't say you did.
Darren *******
@Scot ******
looks like she has based on now I'm reading it.
Scot *******
@Darren ******
- which part of not part of reporting is confusing you?
Darren *******
@Scot ******
likewise, which part of still thinking you need to show you have the money when talking about the 90 day report is confusing you?
Scot *******
@Darren ******
- that would still be your confusion. Can you point to the word you are stuck on?
Steven ***************
@Scot ******
. MTT doesn't handle retirement extensions, they do 90 day reports and tourist extensions. I've done 90 day reports at MTT during money in bank period, including the day before applying for yearly extension at CW, and it's NEVER been mentioned or checked.by officer processing it.
Scot *******
@Steven **************
- great, that's nice for you. Seems it's not always the same now doesn't it?
Steven ***************
@Scot ******
. Which imm office was that at.?
Scot *******
Darren *******
@Scot ******
I'm currently stuck on your interpretation of still thinking you have to show the money when talking about the 90 day report actually means you don't need to show the money. Maybe you could help explain your thinking on that point.
Scot *******
@Darren ******
- you are the only one who keeps saying that. How can we dispel you of your confusion?

In our case at the 1st 90 days, as is the case for the op, we do have to do the 90 day reporting, and show our funds. He may have to as well, he did ask after all.
Darren *******
@Scot ******
I've never known of anyone to show fund at the 90 day report as that's done when getting the visa and/or applying for an extension. And to be honest, I also doubt that you were asked for proof of funds at your 90 day report unless you also applied for an extension or a new visa on the same day.

Either way, this conversation is pretty pointless so I bid you farewell. Have a good evening.
Scot *******
@Darren ******
- and yes, both 90 day periods started the exact same day.
Scot *******
@Darren ******
- you keep connecting it to the 90 day report, that's your error. They do want to see our money in the bank after 90 days from the issue of the extension.
Steven ***************
@Bonnie ******
. Opinions mean nothing when it comes to immigration laws.. ive done ten 90 day reports and never needed to show funds. And your opinions about coincidence being close to extension is also false as 90 days resets if you exit and re enter country. Let someone who has personal experience and proof answer.
Scot *******
@Steven **************
- it's the way it worked for us, so I would consider it personal experience.
Steven ***************
@Scot ******
the only relevance a 90 day report has to an extension is you need a current valid one to apply for a non o extension, end of story, unless you haven't been in Thailand 90 days when you apply for the extension, then it's not needed at all because the stamp in your passport shows you haven't.
Scot *******
@Steven **************
- the 90 day report is not the same as immigration checking your funds at the 90 day point. The guy asked about the funds check, it certainly is relevant in our case. End of story. 😉
Gareth ********
@Scot ******
incorrect he asked IF he had to show funds for the 90 day address report, simple answer is no.
Scot *******
@Gareth *******
- yep, and that's the reply. She noted it was separate. You are incorrect, and were rude I'm guessing because you thought it would be fun. Was it fun?
Gareth ********
@Scot ******
you’re obviously sensitive.
Scot *******
@Gareth *******
- you are the triggered one. Do you want to talk about it?
Gareth ********
@Scot ******
I just realised it was your mother’s post that I originally replied to. Good to see you sticking to your family values.
Scot *******
@Gareth *******
- it that what you do when you are triggered? Did you also wet yourself?
Steven ***************
@Scot ******
. Might be relevant to you, but NOT the person asking the question. Checking funds are in bank for 90 days and doing a 90 day report are 2 different things.
Bonnie *******
@Steven **************
the post is asking about the funds check so there is a funds check involved in his case.
Steven ***************
@Bonnie ******
. I understand that but it was funds check in relation to 90 day report, funds check of 90 daysfor yearly extension is obvious. Again.. MTT play no part in yearly extensions, it's not their department.
Scot *******
@Steven **************
- yep, nothing was said otherwise, but it may still need to be done.
Duncan *******
@Bonnie ******
a 90 day report is simply a form to show where you are living - thats it. Nothing to do with visas or money.
Scot *******
Try to follow better.
Gareth ********
@Bonnie ******
incorrect, 90 day reporting has nothing to do with funds. If you don’t know an answer why reply? It just creates further confusion.
Scot *******
@Gareth *******
- she didn't say it did have anything to do with the 90 day report. Try to follow along. If you don't know the answer, why reply?
Gareth ********
@Scot ******
you obviously have no grasp of English. Re read her post she mentions reporting.
Steve *******
@Gareth *******
Read it again!
@Bon***
wrote "It's not part of the reporting".

As English isnt you first language which bit dont you understand?
Scot *******
@Gareth *******
- you best do that yourself. She says it's not part of the reporting.
Brian ********
@Bonnie ******
me never had to
Scot *******
That's nice. But they do in our case.
Kool *******
No to both questions.
Stuart *********
90 day reporting and money in the bank are not connected. You don’t need to show funds for a 90 day report.

I’ll leave question 2 for others with experience of MTT to confirm if that’s the case.
