YES, i know and thats my point. You clearly never saw an earlier post where this was said to be wrong. Anyway, Im done on this im just happy knowing i wasnt talking rubbush in the previous post.

@Steve ******

Yes I know. But Brandon said that was wrong on an earlierpost and said the Visa duration starts the day its issued and you only get 60 day in country from when its issued not from when you enter. It seems it is rocket science for you

@Brandon ***********

And the duration starts from the day you enter as stated above

How come when I said this on a previous post you said I was wrong and the time starts from when the visa was issued not the date you enter Thailand? I knew I was right as thats what I did with my Visa.🤔

The UK Government will not supply a letter confirming pension arrangements so unfortunately this lady has to have money in a Thai bank or posdibly prove regular payments but i think she needs a history of 1 years payments.

That sounds about right but come on a tourist visa, set up your bank, transfer in the funds let them mature and then change your tourist visa to a Retirement visa.

i hear you now although ive never had a problem with cotrect papers

Not true, if you have International driving permit with motorcycle stamp you should be okay

First requirement is Thai Passport

In Chiang Mai you get a statement in the morning for 5.3 along with an Annual statement which may be dated 7 days prior as long as the morning statement confirms the other statement. The Bkk bank (in Chiang Mai anyway) nerds 7 days notice for a statement longer than 6 months so i nookef the statement andbwhen I picked it up on the mirning i went to immigration adked for a 6 month statement dated that day.
