Another banking & immigration related question. Sorry if it has been asked before.

I want to change my 800K 'immigration deposit' from Bangkok Bank to another bank.

I have most of my other monies tied up in CD's in the States ---- so I would need to use the money in the Bangkok Bank account to satisfy the banking requirement in regards to my upcoming renewal of my one year extension Non-O 'retirement' visa.

As of today I have 59 days left until my one year extension expires.

Do I need to go to Immigration and do some particular paperwork to get this bank change properly pushed through in regards to my visa requirements, or can I simply do a direct transfer in one day between the two banks and have all the banking papers in-hand from both banks when I do apply for renewal?

To cover myself, I would go to Bangkok Bank and get my bank book updated prior to doing the transfer. Plus I would leave enough funds in the account to keep it open and active after the transfer.

I have my transfer limit on my BB app set to two million baht a day so I should not have an issue making the transfer itself.

One question that particularly bothers me is perhaps the one day date change that may show up between the bank books/statements during the transfer. Think that may be an issue if it happens that way? I know Immigration can be a real stickler about some things.

Heck, a transfer may even take more than one day to take effect ya think? Of course I will check in with both banks regarding that question but I am just trying to get something of an idea as to what to expect and watch for.

Any advice or knowledge would be most appreciated! Thanks!

Once you have your Non O, do you continue to need a one year condo contract to comply with immigration and banking requirements? In the early years, I wish to move around the Land of Smiles to find my perfect forever location.

I have a request, I am in Thailand I was told I could convert a tourist visa into a non O visa, went to immigration in Nakhon Sawan to ask l, they would not help or tell me what steps I need to take, I am wanting to end up with a retirement visa as soon as I can. Any good advice would be appreciated, I’m sorry I do not have a bank account in my name, I have proof of residency, I believe I was given bad information from someone already living here, he said I should just come over on a tourist visa and change it to a non O visa once I arrived, now I am finding out I should had just applied when I was home and came in like everyone is saying Thanks

I have a saving account at my rabo bank in netherlands it's called tijdslotsparen and if I want to withdraw money I have to wait 3 monts to get it.

It has double the money I need for the dtv

Is this account ok for the dtv?

Looking for agent recommendations to open a bank account in chiang mai.

anyone had luck opening thai bank account with DTV? I want to avoid these pesky ATM fees.. what to do if they ask for proof of your apartment??

So it seems some TTB branches in Bangkok can open accounts for DTV holders, particularly DTV holders who work remotely! I can't confirm for the other category of DTV. They showed me a list of 4 items required, of which I was missing just one, which I've attached here. The other items are

1. Passport + DTV stamp inside

2. other ID from your country (license or ID card)

3. DTV proof like letter from employer/ employment contract/

4. The attached image - that's what I didn't have. What is that? It's related to residence though. They didn't care about my TM30.

Hi all I have my 90day visa and will be looking to extend to 1 year when i get there

What are the banking requirements

I am married and do own a property Don't want to work

Should I apply for retirement visa before going or after I get there?

Ok. We are married with a child on the way. We have jumped through all the hoops and wasted many hours at different banks trying to open a god damned bank account so I can apply for a non immigrant O visa and still they won’t let us open an account Who do I have to blow to be able to open a account?!?
