It’s actually a requirement under the Thai embassy in Norway, as shown in my attached photo.

Some embassies have these requirements for a multiple-entry tourist visa, but there is no requirement for the funds to be held continuously in the account, only that they are available over a six-month period. Providing payslips or proof of salary or pension is usually sufficient.

Departure information is not mandatory. Only fields with a red astrix.

Touch and go…

Bruno Vaglienti We’re talking about Thailand and its immigration offices, which issue residence certificates regardless of visa type. I’ve obtained several myself on visa exemption over the years for driving licences, vehicle purchases, and opening bank accounts.

That said, the specific requirements do vary, particularly regarding how long you have stayed or your residential arrangement before they issue it.

Greg Simpson You have received an email requesting additional documentation. I have done this before for a friend, and it should be possible to log back into your application and upload your income confirmation again. The most recent upload will always be the one considered.

Just upload the last three months of bank statements again, as required.

Be aware that you can only upload a single file. If you try to upload three separate files, only the last one will be registered.

You therefore need to convert the statements to PDF and merge them into one single file before uploading.

Harry Harris I’m not sure which embassy you are applying through, but the requirement is either three months of income equivalent to at least 65,000 baht per month, or a lump sum of 800,000 baht held in your account. These are alternative methods, and you do not need to meet both.

Three months of income should in itself be sufficient. For the lump sum method, the final balance is usually the key factor, even if you provide a three-month statement.

If you have paid the fee and received confirmation that the application was submitted, it may have been rejected due to a formal error, such as spelling, date of birth, or passport details. If documents are missing, you will usually be contacted by email to provide them.

Todd Capron Under consideration is a standard status for marriage-based extension applications, as the Immigration Office may conduct further checks, including home visits. However, this has nothing to do with a residence certificate. I've obtained several residence certificates myself on visa exempt for things like driver's licenses and purchasing motorcycles.
