- thanks for taking time to respond so thoughtfully

- Yesterday I went to Customs and got the papework. But now I’ve decided to just walk away and not claim the package. Hope I can just not show up to claim it without incurring any additional charges.

@Christopher ******

- what happens if I just walk away and don’t say anything to UPS or Thai Customs. Will Thai Customs still try to find me in 2 years and try to charge me for storage? Or does not claiming the package insulate me from future charges?

You guys who advocate view that there’s no need to land monthly in Thai bank acct going forward in year 2 and beyond, please spell out how this alternative works, seeing as u need all banking updated and certified on the very day u renew your Non O yearly extensions? I’m honestly very curious for someone to lay out how to accomplish this - ideally in bullet-point form, for people who intend to self- renew, without resorting to Agent

like in the second year and going forward how do i show the monthly 65,000 transfers are earmarked for Thailand? And please elaborate what exactly some of these other platforms for the monthlies, that when reduced to paper statements,will satisfy thai immigration. My understanding has been that they require bank certification of 12 monthly transfers and a bank book updated on the very day of immigration Extension renewal appointment. Even if the principal pulls all that together, how does one assure it’s something that won’t trigger red-flags w/in the avg Immigration guy’s mind? Thanks to all that followed my preceding thread.

(a Thai bank acct, that is.)

- I’m confused. How can u verify monthly transfers w/o a Thai account for them to land in?

@Mick *******

- thanks for sharing advice

- no I’d seen a Visa Extension checklist online that stated it was required. big relief to realize I’d actually never been issued one upon arrival.
