Can anyone confirm to get the 12 months of bank statements from Bangkok Bank and the certification of balance letter do you need your passport/ID AND your passbook when asking in the branch? This is to ask for them not to receive them.

EDIT: It seems both are absolutely necessary. So secondary question, how long after the statements are taken from the bank must they be used for the visa renewal? If the statements are requested on the 1st I aim to renew on the 9th. Should be fine?

I have a question regarding changing my visa-exempt stamp to Non O based on marriage. Has anyone had experience doing this within Thailand?

I have read mixed reviews on this, but it seems like this can be done at Chaeng Wattana.

I meet the requirements on documentation, but have also read that it’s not as plain sailing as it seems and can just be down to officer desecration on the day 🤔

Hey peeps, can anyone advice on:

1. Any tips on alternatives for apps/platforms (True Money or or..?) that allow scanning for payments in Thailand if we can't open a Thai bank account on a DTV visa? -- Also, how do you top it up? I got True Money but it seems like I can only link it to a Thai bank account, which obviously defeats the purpose.

2. Anyone knows if it's possible to transfer paperwork when buying a motorbike? I'm not sure it can be done on a DTV visa? If so, any idea of what documents are needed?

Thanks!

Do any of you have examples of hand drawn maps which have been accepted by immigration when applying for one year extension based on married to a Thai?

Need to do mine soon and really like to get an idea of how artistic or how childlike they can be. My drawing skills leave a lot to be desired 🥴

I was asked to provide additional documents to provide proof for the source of the funds in my bank account to demonstrate that they were legitimate. I submitted a Thai bank account for my financial evidence. What does this mean? What should I submit? and has anyone gotten the same requests before?

Thank you in advance for your help.

I have traveled to Thailand several times, the first was for work, the rest because I like the country and its food. I plan to go there again but because of my age, I wonder if they will give me at least a 3-month visa.

Does anyone have an up to date, English language list of requirements needed by Jomtien immigration for a 1 year extension of stay based on marriage to a Thai?

I've just been in and all they have is a list printed in Thai which seems strange as surely everyone who wants to apply will be non Thai?

With the best will in the world this isn't something my wife could confidently deal with.
