This is the second time they’ve asked me for additional documents in regards to financial evidence.

Applying in Indonesia - Jakarta Consulate

I have 10K USD and 10K Euro in two separate checking accounts (but with the same bank)

I did highlight the balance + start and end date for my documents. I guess my documents say April-August, but since I haven’t made any transactions in the account since April so there isn’t a new transaction line for anything in August.

I did include a cover letter explaining that there is money in two accounts both for the 3 month period.

Or is the issue that I have the money in two separate accounts? Looking through this group I saw a number of posts from people who were able to use two accounts - even though I know it also said one account is better

I can move the money into a single account - but then it wouldn’t look seasoned?

Thanks!

I have account in K Bank. I tried to increase the transfer limit from 50k TB on the bank app.But would not let me. I called to KBank today to ask them to increase it. Was told 50,000tb is maximum transfer for all foreigners. Anyone else have this problem. I don't have same issue with Bangkok bank.

I am leaving for Thailand on retirement visa initially with non O visa via Siamlegal.

As understood Australian Authorities allowed maximum A$ 10000 in cash carriage to overseas. I have WISE ACCOUNT and TRAVEL MONEY CARD and COMMON BANK ACCOUNT. My question is what is the best way to transfer the money requirement of THB 800000 in Thai Bank account for retirement visa. I am looking foward your valued inputs.

Hi, can someone tell me what exchange rate does the embassy use? Like how much is 500k THB in EUR, USD? I googled it but i doubt they use the same exchange rate.

For those using Wise - I've been asked to verify my old uk address. Obviously I can't do that, so is it easy to use my Thai address? What docs needed? 🙏 - J
