I arrived in Thailand March 1st 2023 with E-Visa from Thailand Embasy in USA. I got driver’s license and bank account opened and got 90 day retirement visa which I extended for one year and ends 23 July 2024.  Everything was completed with just some help from Thai friends (I am up in Chiang Rai). 

Today I went to renew my retirement visa and had to provide a copy of my original E-Visa!  Went home and fortunately a copy was still saved on my computer. 

Is this normal to need a copy of the E-Visa?

Also this site helped me so here is a freebie. I first got residency certificate to get Thai Drivers License. The bank accepted same residency certificate when o went to open bank account even though it said for drivers license.

Answer summary
