What documents are required for extending a Non-O retirement visa in Hua Hin?
Recently moved to Hua Hin from Lampang, and had some conflicting info on what was required for extension of Non O (retirement) by the HH Imm. Office. Got it done the other day, and the following was what I submitted and accepted. TM7 with photo, copy of passport front page, copy of old visa, copy of TM6, map to residence, copy of House Card of house owner, copy of ID card of house owner, 3 month bank statement, bank letter dated same day, updated bank book. (All for the 800,000 deposit requirement). Got an online queue appointment prior to the day. There is an online queue desk at the office. I was served immediately and on time. 20 minutes later, left with new stamp for another year.
Answer summary
A recent expat in Hua Hin shared the documents required for extending a Non-O (Retirement) visa at the Hua Hin Immigration Office. The accepted documents included a TM7 form with a photo, copies of various passport documents, a map to residence, a copy of the house owner's house card and ID, a three-month bank statement, a bank letter dated the same day, and an updated bank book to meet the 800,000 baht deposit requirement. The expat was able to make an online appointment for an efficient experience.

You didn’t need 12 months of bank statements?

not correct, MORE and more offices are asking for the year detail transaction history for banked money method to make sure you kept the 800K baht in the bank for 3 months after you're last extension and that you never let the balance go below 400K baht the rest of the year

OP@Gooddy ******
it was 3 months. That was my experience.Frank **********
OPThis was my 7th yearly extension, but first in Hua Hin, and I asked at the Imm office prior to going how many months statement. They said 3 months, so that is what I brought, and it was accepted. But, as you say, every office is different. Lampang also only wanted 3 months.

@Frank ********
if it's your first yearly extension they only require you show the funds were in the account for 2 months before you apply. It's the subsequent yearly extensions that USUALLY (depending on the immigration office) require the year detail transaction history.Paul *********
@Gooddy ******
that's a normal requirement so they can check 800k for 3 months after and no less that 400k anytimeGooddy *******
@Paul ********
yes he didn’t mention it, hence the question.Tod *********
@Richard ******
your time deposit only prints the interest paid AND most bank books if you don't update them at least every 21 days only print "summary transacions" now money in, money out since the last update

@Gooddy ******
Well for the last 5 years just a copy of my updated bank book has been accepted at IM and there were no missing transactions in that book as it is a time deposit account.Gooddy *******
@Richard ******
they are not. Mine has missed out 6 weeks of transactions this year so far on a Bangkok Bank savings account.Paul *********
@Gooddy ******
agree. Last year I didn't. This year update book every month. I hope to not need bank statementsRichard *******
@Gooddy ******
When you update a bank book all previous transactions are printed into it. At least they are on both my time deposit and standard deposit account.Gooddy *******
@Paul ********
Yes because lots of transactions are sometimes missed off a bank book. Its not a reliable indicator that balances have been maintained throughout the year.Paul *********
@Gooddy ******
weird. Here in Nonthaburi last October, 12 month banks statements, about the only documents they scrutinised.
