In the list of required documents for the one year Non-O visa extension it says TM30 and "Residence of proof". What exactly is "Residence of proof?
Answer summary
The 'Residence of proof' for a one year Non-O visa extension typically refers to documentation that verifies your living situation in Thailand. This can include a one-year rental contract along with the owner's house book and identification. Additionally, it may require a lease agreement that includes copies of ID or passports for all signatories involved in the lease.

I just applied today. I included a one-year lease agreement, copy of my landlord's ID and copy of his blue house book. It was all accepted and nothing further required. Thank you.

I think you also need 2 pictures of you standing outside the house and 2 inside along with a screen shot of the location.

that is worded strangely. The balance cannot get below 400,000 baht 3 months after the extension.

thanks. However I understand the Britush ermbassy does not provide such verification. I have bank statements than show my pension and rental income.

Also is this an and/or 800,000 or pension

7.2 seems to say I must withdraw 400,000 after 3 months. Am I reading that correctly and if so why.
