Same card as OP -Be1st. ATM card fee 700 thb and 15 thb a month.🤷🏼‍♂️

@John *********

I have both Bangkok Bank and Krungthai Bank. BB withdraw 15 thb and KB 20 thb every month.

@Craig *******

Agree with

@John *********

. I know I paid approximately this as a one time fee when I got the same card as you, and as I now see in my account, they just withdraw 15 thb each month for my card or account as a monthly fee.

@John *********

You’re probably right.

ATM card fee is normally approximately in this price range.

@Darren *****

I don’t think it has to be traceable in other ways than it’s shown as transactions over sea from abroad every month.

@Russell *******

An overseas account doesn’t meet the criteria if you’ll like to retire in Thailand. You can apply for a 90 days Non O visa or a one year Non O-A visa at home with your bank at home, but for the first year extension in Thailand you’ll need to bank 800K in a Thai bank. Later you can use the income method by proving twelve consecutive transactions of min 65K thb a month oversea to a your bank in Thailand.

@David ****

Yes you must leave, but if you cancel your work permit you can get a 7 days extension denied at the immigration before you leave and re-enter on a visa exemption or tourist visa if you’ll like to apply for a regular Non O retirement visa in country when you return.

@Henry ********

Correct, and a regular Non B is for 90 days, and multiple entries for one year. After its regular extension of stay.

@Steve *********

This is correct. If your embassy still offers to give you an affidavit letter to confirm your income, this is sufficient. Most embassies in west Europe still provide this letter, but we know the UK, US, AUS and the Danish stopped this service in 2018.
