I’m sure this has been covered before, but with all the changes, you never really know. 

It used to be required for the Retirement Visa to have ฿800,000 or ฿80,000 per month income or a combination there of. 

I make well over the ฿80,000 a month and can prove it on my monthly bank statements from Bangkok Bank 

So is this still true ?

Not sure if this is a dumb question or not, never hurt to ask...about the 800,000 baht, does it has to be in one Thai bank account or can you have 3-4 Thai banks with smaller amounts? I guess a lot more paperwork for the immigration process?

Question regarding opening bank here as a US citizen. I had to do the W9 form. The bank person said the US government will tax me based on the money I leave in the bank. I just wonder how does it all work. Will the tax be on the interest amount or the total balance amount? 

Thanks in advance

Hi folks, I am on a retirement visa granted first time on 6.3.2019. I need to use half of the 800.000 baht deposit. Is it ok or not, since I had heard that there is a new rule which forces retirees to keep the money in the thai bank for 3 months after the retirement visa is granted. Thank you.
