How do I provide proof of a pension from an Australian bank when applying for a Non-O Marriage Visa in Thailand?
If a pension is paid into an Aussie bank how do you provide such proof when applying for a the Non O marriage Visa.
Answer summary
Applying for a Non-O Marriage Visa in Thailand while relying on pension payments deposited into an Australian bank account requires careful documentation. Applicants can provide proof by submitting recent bank statements (ideally showing at least four to five months of pension credits), using a notarized letter from the pension administrator, and transferring 400,000 THB into a Thai bank account prior to application. Other methods mentioned include utilizing services like Wise for currency transfer and ensuring documentation meets immigration standards.

Thai bank passbook and a bank letter updated on the day of application (400,000 THB) or proof of 40,000 THB monthly since it is not an extension you are bound to the first method, later with extensions you are free to use the second method

Are you in Oz or in Thailand ?
Wise still costs
But it’s still cheaper than any other way
+ the exchange rate you get is nearly as per Google
Home banks give you a poor rate
Example
I transferred $9,500 AUD to Wise to Thai bank
Cost $55 AUD

Your banks statement will show the credits as a centrelink pension. Just circle these to make it easier to identify and provide the required months of statements.

Download Taptap. Once you have a Thai account transfer straight from your bank. Costs 99p British and a better rate.

You apply for the 90 day Non-O marriage visa before coming to Thailand using funds in your home bank. When you get to Thailand you open a Thai bank account and place a minimum of 400k baht in it for 2 months before applying for the 12 months extension of stay at your local immigration office

You move 400k baht into a Thai Bank Account.

Transfer with Wise and get an agent
Paul ************
Ken Hutchinson Wise is rubbish Ken. Currently 44.52 to the £. Costs you to convert and costs you again to transfer. You don't use Taptap?
Graham ******
Paul Mclaughlin no transfer cost, you see the Baht total that appears in your Thai account before commiting
Graham ******
Paul Mclaughlin Yes there are always fees (or a crap exchange rate) but with Wise the fee is not are hidden so you know before doing the deal what it would cost and how many Baht will be received. Some transactions incur bank fees on transfer/receipt but not with Wise.
Paul ************
Graham Seal if you're moving peanuts, you're not really gonna notice. You will notice when moving 400k/800k.
Paul ************
Ken Hutchinson read the messages, I wasn't the one that said there isn't a transfer fee. Ive pointed out its far better to use Taptap. Hardly rocket science is it?
Ken ************
Paul Mclaughlin Proves what of course there is a fee no one does anything for nothing , what world do you live in
Graham ******
Paul Mclaughlin Yes, it tells you down to the last Satang what you receive and it's always spot on just the one fee you see up front and their rates are not poor as you imply
