Can someone tell me what will work at immigration non o marriage visa for proof of 40,000 baht per month income instead of the 400,000 in thai bank?

Answer summary

To prove the required income for a NON-O marriage visa, you can use a work permit to validate your income if you're employed in Thailand. Some immigration offices may accept income from abroad, but this typically requires an affidavit letter from your embassy. However, many embassies do not provide such services, making the 400,000 baht in a Thai bank account the more reliable option. If your embassy won't issue an affidavit, you will likely need to comply with the bank deposit method initially, then transfer 40,000 baht monthly for subsequent extensions.

Most embassies don't provide affidavit services, I know the UK one doesn't, and I'm pretty sure the US one doesn't either. But don't quote me on that. It's why 90% go the 400k route.

You asked this a month or so back and the answer hasnt changed. Some immigration offices will not allow the 40k deposit method unless you're employed in Thailand, the ones that will, will only accept an embassy affidavit for the first extension. If your embassy (like most now) won't issue an income affidavit then you will need to put the 400k into a bank for the first extension then transfer 40k+ per month every month for the second extension.

You asked the same question back on September 12th, you received the correct answers back then, review the comments you received then, nothing has changed since then.

Do you have a work permit in Thailand? If so they will approve your income.

It’s known that at some immigrations it can be difficult to be allowed to prove income pension/income from abroad unless your embassy in Bangkok also provides you a affidavit letter. So you either need to prove income earned in Thailand or provide a affidavit letter to avoid banking the 400K baht.
