I am a Singaporean and currently residing in Thailand with a Non -Imm O-A retirement visa which I obtained from the Thai embassy in Singapore valid 1 year till 31 July 2025. I intend to renew my O-A visa when it is due at the Thai immigration office of the Province I am currently staying. One of the requirements stated in the document obtained from the thai immigration office for O-A retirement visa application is a 'photocopy of the bankbook with a minimum deposit of 800K Baht in the first 3 months after the last visa extension, and then having 800K Baht in the 2 months prior to visa application date'. My query is since I got my O-A visa from singapore and will be doing the visa renewal in Thailand next year for the first time, I only need to fulfill the latter part of the requirement i.e. show the 800k Baht in my bank book statement 2 months prior to renewal application date right?

Appreciate your advice on this please. Thanks!

How about steps neccessary to get a non o marriage visa without an agent. Can my Thai wife assist in the bank deposit procedure. And can I skip the deposit with a years worth of income statement greater than 40,000 baht per month. Lastly is there a printout at immigration with clear cut direction on how to complete all the necessary documents?

Is there a way for someone to qualify for retirement visa based on a monthly 79400 THB income in lieu of depositing 800,000 into a Thai bank account?

Greetings All,

Is it possible for someone to qualify for a retirement visa based on a monthly pension income of 790400 THB in lieu of an 800000 THB deposit to a Thai bank account?

Hello everyone.

I am planning to get my first one-year marriage-based Non-O visa extension soon.

I live in Bangkok and I know I need to do it at the Chaeng Wattana immigration office.

I have a few questions, and I would greatly appreciate your help.

1. Regarding the necessary documents from the bank proving that I have a deposit of 400,000 baht in the account for the previous two months, what exactly are these documents and how many are there?

The list of required documents says:

- Letter from the bank certified the account in the bank of not less than 400,000 baht

- A copy of the bank passbook dated as of the application submission date, showing a balance of no less than 400,000 baht.

Can I go to any branch of my bank in Bangkok and ask for this letter? Do I perhaps need to request a separate account statement for the last two months (or more months)?

2. Another thing that interests me is this:

- Copy of House lease agreement (I have this of course), Identification and household registration of the owner.

Since I have copies of these last two documents, signed by the owner of the apartment where I live, is that sufficient because I don't have the original documents with me and the owner does not live in Bangkok?

3. The next thing I'm interested in are these 4 photos that are needed (two in front of the building and two inside the apartment).

What kind of photos are they?

Can I take a picture with my phone and then print it somewhere on photo paper?

4. And the last thing is this:

- Map of an applicant house in Thailand.

What kind of map is that, a printed google map of the area where the building I live is located?

Thanks in advance.

Hi. I’m in a bit of a pickle here. My son and my visa expires on 12th Nov. My 500k bank deposit will be 3 months on 13 Nov..ie one day late. Must we leave the country on the 12th or can i just go on the 13th to immigratio and get a slap in the wrist and a fine for it? Or would they take it seriously and throw us out. Obviously any risk is not worth taking. So want to know if anyone knows for certain what the consequences are. Thanks much

Can anyone provide me some information on the required length of having the 500k bath in your bank account for the Phnom Phen embassy?

Does the dependent person also need a deposit in the bank of 500000,- Baht ?

Hi all, partner is here on a Guardian visa (Non O) for 11yo daughter who is on an Ed visa.

Has set up a bank account. How much needs to be deposited so that they can go and get a one year extension before the 90 days is finished?

Have seen 500k and 800k mentioned in different places.

Thanks!
