Getting a retirement visa chiangmai, does anyone know if the bank letter showing funds is only good for the day or is it OK for a couple of days ?
Answer summary
The validity of a bank letter showing funds for a retirement visa in Chiang Mai varies. Generally, it is accepted for about 7 days, but some immigration offices may allow it for up to 4 working days. It's recommended to confirm directly with the local immigration department you will be dealing with, as requirements can differ.
