@Glyn *******

PM me.

When I applied for my retirement non o visa last year from the Thai embassy in London, I needed to upload 90 days health insurance certificate of 400,,000 baht inpatient/outpatient treatment. Insurance needs to start the day you land.

@Geoff ******

non o gives him 3 months unless he goes for the yearly extension which requires 800k transferred in Thai bank account . He needs 6 months.

@James *******

think you mean July.

Depends what passport

you have as to the best option. If it allows you 30 days visa exempt, can come in visa exempt and extend it for another 30

days in Thailand for 1900 baht. Leave for Malaysia and return to Thailand on visa exempt entry again.

You can’t use the monthly 65,000 baht transfer method for your first yearly extension as you haven’t been in the country long enough to satisfy that option. You have either to meet the 800k baht into your Thai bank account option (your name only) OR get an affidavit from the Finnish embassy (if they actually agree to provide it) showing that you meet the monthly income option in Finland.

@Bim ******

it’s 800k

@Steven *****

I would say yes otherwise how do they know the account has followed the minimum balance rules ?

Really great summary. Thanks

@Richard ******

they are not. Mine has missed out 6 weeks of transactions this year so far on a Bangkok Bank savings account.
