Hi Everyone,
I heard the requirements can vary by province and also received different answers from so called experts at 2 different lawyer firms
So for Retirement Visa Extension to year #2 does Immigration Petchaburi still want 800,000 Bahts in Thai bank account 3 months prior to the extension or is it different now in my Province?
Also, for over 5 years now, I always rent the same house when am here. so does a 1 year Lease with a signed TM30 or 47 satisfy the Proof of Residence requirement?
Thanks
TLDR : Answer Summary
The requirements for extending a Retirement Visa in Phetchaburi include maintaining a balance of 800,000 Baht in a Thai bank account for two months prior to applying for the extension and for three months after receiving it. Lessees should provide a signed lease agreement and a TM30 form for proof of residence. It has been noted that some immmigration officers may have specific additional requirements, so it is advisable to confirm with the local immigration office, especially concerning recent changes, such as requests for a TaBian Baan.
