Can the retirement visa requirement for a Thai bank account containing 800k THB also be the equivalent sum of Foreign Currency in a Thai Bank account, or must it be in THB only?
General (Covid unrelated) question: If one wishes to apply for his first and initial "retirement" visa (non-o/non-oa) with a Thai embassy abroad and is required to demonstrate compliance with relevant financial requirements, would he need to show that he has sufficient funds (Thai Baht) in a "Thai bank account" or could it also be an equivalent amount foreign currency in an account with a bank which is located outside Thailand?
Just saw this in another group. SCB Bank in Chonburi (possibly all of them) are suspending cash currency exchanges. If you have foreigner currency, I guess try a gold shop like they do in Vietnam. Not sure about superrich or the other booths.
