First stop Bangkok Bank for Confirmation Letter ( I already have the statement) The girl said to me, I need to have 400 or 800k baht in the account for 4 months. I said I don’t use that method, I use monthly method, she goes and speaks to the Manager, comes back and says, they cannot do letter. I go to the branch in Robinsons (where I got my statement) as it’s now open, explains the story to the girl, she prints off Confirmation Letter and I pay her 100 baht, she explains that the rules have changed. I head to Immigration (Roi Et) with all the docs required as per Koh Samui list. He checks the statements and asks where the money is coming from, I say the UK as they show as FTT transfers, as required. He says, but I want to see proof of money going into your account in the UK from your pension provider, luckily I have April 2025, on my phone. Koh Samui had never asked for such proof in the last 10 years, I don’t know if this requirement is new or not, and I pass the info on, for anyone who it may affect. 🙏🙏🙏

Dear all,

For my DTV visa application, I submitted a letter from my bank stating that my funds exceed 500,000 baht. However, the Thai embassy has requested another bank statement and another letter confirming that my funds are still above 500,000 baht. I don’t understand why, as I have already provided this information.

What exactly should the bank write in the letter?

Does the bank statement need to be signed on every page?

The statement already shows that my funds exceed 500,000 baht. The bank has also officially confirmed this.

How should the bank statement be formatted to meet the embassy's requirements?

Thanks for your help!
