That's true, but why would you use an agent if you've got the money

It's no issue at all. It's merely designed to stop those using agents for extensions

@Suzene ****

In Bangkok you can do the first 90-day report by mail

@David ********

Expensive way of doing it

He lives in Perth so has to use the embassy

A tourism visa is what she'd be seeking. The application is done online. What will be required is

(1) Statement of employment from her employer, stating years of service and salary

(2) Bank statements from previous 12 months

(3) Any land/property ownership documents

(4) Immediate family details

I do it every year for my lady. The first is probably the hardest, but with a good record of non-overstay it gets easier. In the last few years she's also had visas for UK three times and Schengen twice

Application is started here

@Phil *****

I can only speak about CW. Every office has its own nuances. There was a report yesterday that Hua Hin accepts the email print-out

@Frank *********

The statement you can now download doesn't cost anything

@Glenn ****

Bangkok Bank doesn't issue these summaries anymore. You now get a full 12-month statement of all transactions

@Phil *****

I did it last week at CW. Maybe some provincial offices have a different policy. I know Bangkok Bank in Bangkok haven't stamped the statements for the last three years and will now accept the emailed 12-month statement. Pattaya has more dodgy agents than anywhere else in Thailand so it's possible they are paranoid?
