ORIGINAL POSTER

I’m due next month to do my first extension renewal using the 65k baht/month international transfers into my Bangkok Bank Account. I will be doing this at Chaeng Wattana BKK. Like most of us doing this for the first time, I’m anxious to get it right. Can anyone advise me whether my local branch may, or may not be aware of the information required by immigration. I’m aware that immigration only require a list of the international transfers on your account. Also any ideas of  time scales in receiving this letter.

TLDR : Answer Summary

If you're renewing your visa extension at Chaeng Wattana using 65k baht/month international transfers, it's advisable to visit your local Bangkok Bank branch for guidance. Immigration typically requires a list of these transfers. It's recommended to ask the staff directly about the necessary documentation, potentially providing them with an example of the required letter for clarity. To avoid issues, consider applying for the extension 45 days in advance.

many thanks Trevor. Would you mind if I printed it off to show my local bank what’s required. Just in case they’re not sure.

At most bank branches in Bangkok you will not be the first foreigner they see in their life. How amazing this sound, they know which letters they need to give you to satisfy Immigration.

Go to your local branch and ask them yourself. If necessary ask them to connect you with someone who speaks good English. You should know what it is you are asking for. Find an example of the letter you want. Print it out and show them.

As a last resort your could visit your bank branch on the lower floor of CW. They will definitely know what you are asking for.

Also, you can apply for an extension 45 days early. Go as early as possible so you have time to fix any problems. Take notes. The second time will go much smoother with less anxiety.

thank you Mary. I did go to the branch on the lower floor at CW. The lady did indeed know what I wanted. However, she said that they can only print the last three months if this is not my branch. I would need to go to my own branch for the full twelve months print out.
