TLDR : Answer Summary
The discussion revolves around experiences with the recent requirement for bank statements during 90-day immigration reports in Thailand. Users share that the bank statement request, particularly for those on retirement extensions under the 800k method, may be a new trend, possibly special to initial reports after receiving a one-year extension. While some immigration offices have different policies, there is a consensus that maintaining the required bank balance is now being enforced more strictly. Users advise ensuring that bank books are updated before reporting to avoid issues.

well, if that was your first 90-days report after you got issued the 1-year extension of stay permit, then this is the bankbook check if you have followed the rules for the upkeep of the 800,000 THB for a minimum of 3 months, during which the deposit cannot fall below 800,000 THB

They know when they see the bank book so strange . If you do the the 90 day on line they won’t know !! Different offices have different requests. In Sriracha I have to update my bank book three months after my visa .

Andy Peecpfc Youknowme only my old location in sriracha. Now in Hau Hin and here it’s not required. Best part by doing the online reporting is the immigration office remind you to complete the next one

Ian Carman Technically you can do every 90-day report online after that initial one, provided you remain in the country, so yes, that makes sense. For subsequent extensions you will need to provide bank statements at which time they will see that you kept the 800k for three months after the extension date.

Ron Duke What if a retirement extension (800k method) got an initial 90 day under consideration stamp then, when you go back after 90 days to get your full year stamped in, you have to show the 800k was maintained for those "3 months". Maybe this is the way things are going.

I do find that part strange. You know update your bank book. The fact i have my bank online you would think that is more acurate. Because you can go in the bank update the book then step outside and draw money from an atm.

They check mine every year when we extend, so it seems redundant. I guess if you really don’t have one it could be a problem. 🤔

If things go as I see them going they will be checking all those on retirement extensions based on the 800k method within 5 years , get your ducks lined up. Agents won’t be able to help.

Simone Rawai it's now becoming a thing so it's best to do a small deposit or withdrawal and update your bank book before arriving at Immigration.
