@Phil ******
My understanding is that for your bank letter and statement, the 1 weel rule applies. The bank book is however different. My problem is finding a Kasikorn bank with the necessary machine to update my bank book that is open early. The only ones I can find are in malls which open at 10.00. Any suggestions?

Does your first period of 180 days start from the day the visa is approved or on entry to Thailand?

My understanding regarding the e-visa, is that you have to be in the country of origin to apply. I have a UK passport but currently do not live there so was told I could not apply for an e-visa. There are no appointments at the Thai Embassy where I am based until October so I am stuck with the visa waiver option.

I read that I can only open a Thai bank account in-country and NOT with just a tourist visa. So how do I meet the requirement for the Retirement visa, of having money in a Thai Bank Account? I am happy to start the process before arrival or once in Thailand but get more confused, the more I read.
