I wont' have 800k to keep in my Thai bank account, so to eventually obtain my residents visa, I intend to deposit 65,000b per month instead. I am a UK citizen. I will contact my old employer, Tate & Lyle, and ask them to pay that amount into my Thai bank account.

My question is : does my comapny issue me with some kind of certificate, and if so, who do I contact to get that certified to provide me proof of this income? Can I get it within the UK via the Thai embassy there, or from the embassy in Bangkok. I live in Chiang Mai.

Thanks.

I currently receive income from two sources. Both sources are just short of 100,000 bahts. So when my wife and I move to Thailand in the future to retire, I will have to show 100,000 badts per month in a Thai bank account. Does that have to show it directly deposited to that account, for just show I deposit 100,000 into that account each month. Sorry I’m a little confused. I would prefer to have one source deposit into an American account and transfer it to a Thai account rather than all my income.

Last question, if I have a large lump sum in a Thai bank account, can I ignore the 100,000 badts per month?

Morning all.

I have had 800,000baht sitting in an account doing nothing for the last 3 years to meet the requirement for non O based on retirement.

my question is as an alernative..

Can I transfer 65,000 baht into this account each month from another Thai bank account to meet the criteria for the Non O extension?

thank you
