I obtained a 90-day none O E visa from the Thai consulate in the UK.

My question is, can this be converted into an extension to stay (retirement visa). I can prove I have sent over more than 65000 baht for more than the last year of international transfer from the UK to my Thai bank account. Is this enough for immigration or do you need the 800,0000 baht in the bank for 2 months prior to applying.

Hello, I want to make a retirement visa soon, one option is 65000 baht monthly income, let's say I transfer from Germany every year one million baht on my thai account, not monthly but more than the 65000×12 is this ok?

Thanks!

Already have my 1 year marriage visa under consideration. Question is if I want to convert to the monthly 40k income method sometime in the future does the transfer into my Thai bank account have to show as an overseas transfer. I looked at the requirements and it does not say anything about it. My Embassy,(US) does not issue the affidavit. Thanks.

Hey guys, do you have any experience sending money FROM Thailand with either bank transfer or Skrill?

Aside from Deemoney, I heard that It’s a challenge to send money from Thailand as a foreigner since banks may noy allow it. And there’s limited amount of money that you can transfer abroad (eg. not exceed your Thai salary)

Also, some said that it’s possible to send money via Skrill. But you need to pay via a visa card instead.

Do you guys have any experience with it?

This question is for American expats. Are you able to provide the proof of 65000 baht a month income to the Thai immigration since the American embassy does not provide a letter for that now.

I need to further extend my visa, for the purposes of retirement, using the income method. I have been transferring the required amount for 12 months, apart from being around a thousand baht short in September & October last year, before I saw the writing on the wall and before the rules changed, but I'll have to live with that and hope for some leniency. However, I am having trouble getting Kasikorn Bank to evidence international transfers that have been routed through another bank and do not obviously appear on my statement as such.

On my official bank statement it gives the codes at TFN05027 (which is an international transfer), MCL07206, MCL07416 & MCL00001. I have no idea what these mean and my local Kasikorn branch at Market Village, Hua Hin say they can't evidence them as international transfers.

I spoke to some central office on the telephone whilst in the branch and they said I would have to go to the Kasikorn International Trade Centre in Ratchaburi, in person and they might be able to help. The emphasis being on the word 'might'.

I am using Transferwise and have copies of the receipts, which clearly show the transfers as being from overseas. The dates correspond with my official bank statement and they have given me a letter, but they will not issue a letter specifically listing the transfers as being sourced internationally.

I might give it a run at Hua Hin immigration tomorrow and see how it goes. If that fails I'll have to think of another way. I am loath to pay some blood sucking agent, I have never had to do so before and am perfectly able and happy to transfer 65000+ per month.

Any ideas on how I might otherwise evidence the transfers as being from overseas, without having to drive to Ratchaburi on the off chance?

Following the story of new option (12 monthly transfers) to confirm income from abroad for 4 nationalities, which embassies not issuing income letters anymore - is there any proven (already) transfer-bank combination which is confirmed as international transfers by local Bank? Wire is expensive, will the TransferWise to local bank "do the trick"? Or any other "transferwise" - like service which is recommended? TIA
