TLDR : Answer Summary
The user is applying for a Non-O visa and inquires about which Thai banks can provide a letter and a one-year statement showing monthly deposits of 65,000 baht. A comment clarifies that if applying at a Thai embassy, only three months of proof of income is needed, which can come from any bank. However, if applying in Thailand, only certified income or proof of 800,000 baht in a Thai bank account is acceptable for the initial visa, and international transfer proof can only be used after the first year. Main banks recommended for foreigners include Kasikorn, Bangkok Bank, and SCB.

You're apply for the initial 90 day non-O visa? Where are you applying? At a Thai embassy or in Thailand at immigration?

If you're applying at the embassy, you only need 3 months of proof of income for most embassies, and it can be from any bank, in Thailand or not.

If you're applying inside of Thailand, you cannot use income unless it's proof of income from your emabassy. The only options for an initial 90 day non-O visa is embassy certified income or proof of 800,000 in your Thai bank account. These are also the only 2 options for the first 1-year extension. Even if you can show 10 years of deposits, it will not be accepted for the initial visa or the first 1-year extension. You can only start using proof of international transfers for year 2. Any Thai bank can provide you that information, but the primary ones used by foreigners are Kasikorn, Bangkok Bank and SCB.

Thanks for responding so quickly. I'm applying at a Thai Immigration office. Years past, I had maintained a bank 800k balance with one bank, while making 65k monthly deposits in a different bank's account. Due to health reasons, I had to withdraw the 800k and used it. You leave me with the understanding that I won't be able to use my deposits every month for visa purposes, because I didnot properly establish a bank history, having two bank accounts in two different banks.

- yes you can. I used the 65K monthly deposit to renew my Non. Imm O (retirement visa) as long as it shows it as an international transfer every month

I went to the bank updated my bank book

Got statements printed out for the 12 months

Got the certificate from the bank

All the other paperwork needed & photos and took it I main immigration in my city and I was granted the renewal on the monthly international transfer into my Thai bank account

If it’s a renewal that you are referring to

It is a renewal. Unfortunately, I am using information from two separate banks, one that had 800k in it, another one with a continuing deposit of 65+k for over 2 years. Just curious, which bank are you using?

@Peter **************
You need to show only the statement of 12 months monthly incoming 65+k. The other bank is worthless because you withdrew the 800k.

You cannot progress the initial Non-O in country without the 800k but you can travel to another neighbouring country and get it there using the "income" methos, check their websites to choose which best suits you. You will then need the 800k seasoned in time for your extension.
