Passport, photo, bank letter Bank statement bank book (800k seasoned for 2mths) lease agreement, blue book(copies)and owner's ID (copies) TM7,map of address and what ever extra the immigration officer ask for...

Very doable when u have the funds in a thai account....need to have more than 15days on your current stamp apply for a initial nonO 90days with passport, photo,TM87 TM30 lease agreement Bank letter Bank statement bank book map of address.....when your 90days nonO is left with 30days or less apply with same documents but using TM7 instead to apply for 1yr extension...agent or not agent is up to individuals u need to do this every year

@Andy ***********

yes provided the moment you get your first extension u deposit 65k at the same time

@Todd ********

alot of embassy doesn't give affidavit anymore...it's up to individuals to overcome the situations

It's only for the first 2yrs once u swipe to the 65k method your 800k is set free if you are so calculative over the interest lost of the 800k why do u want to come stay in thailand in the first place? The lower cost of living makes it worth to lose that interest over 2yrs

@Jon *******

1st 3mths is initial nonO 90days then he get 1yr extension that's why it's 15mths

If u do already have a thai bank acct u can apply for the initial 90days nonO marriage in thailand if u have more than 15days on your current entry stamp.....the reason most ppl apply for their nonO in their home country is because they don't have a thai acct which is almost impossible to open one without a long term visa...while applying in their home country they can use their home funds as proof

@Vinod **************

this is the conditions for the first year extension while maintaining it you still can do deposits of 65k/mth (foriegn transfer) and print out 1 fullyear statement to show the immigration for the 2nd year extension and request to use the 65k/mth method

@Vinod **************

after extension is granted 800k needs to stay in acct for 3mths and after that yes u can spent but need to bring it up to 800k 2mths before next extension

Apply for a 1yr extension during December with a passport(validity of 7mths) is unwise and how are you going to use that(less then 3mths) to travel out of thailand?
