ORIGINAL POSTER
I need to go to Immigration Division 1 Bangkok for an extension of my non-immigrant O visum retirement. Every year they change something ๐Ÿ˜€. So I'm already curious what they changed this year. Someone was going very recently and would be so kind to tell me if they were changing something ??

TLDR : Answer Summary
There have been no significant changes reported this year for extending a non-immigrant O retirement visa at Immigration Division 1 in Bangkok. If you are applying using the banked money method, ensure you have a year transaction detail report, a standard bank letter, and an updated bank book. For the monthly income method, it's important that all twelve months of incoming transfers are coded as international, or you should be able to prove their origin.

I've had the non-O retirement visa for several years. I've no idea what changes you're talking about. It's been the same process for me every year (at Bangkok Immigration)

Same as last year, no changes that I could see

If you're using banked money method, you get a year transaction detail report, the standard bank letter and update your bank book the day you apply for the extension.

If you're using monthly income method you make sure that all the 12 months of incoming transfers are coded as international OR you can prove that's where they came from
