@Farzad ******

it is basically just a document with their letterhead and stamp/signature, certifying that the account is yours, and the balance at the time.

might be in lieu of a work permit, to show affiliation to Thailand. Work permit is required in many banks unless you already hold a long stay visa.

@Todd ********

I have a hard time thinking otherwise too. 1900 unless they change the cost of all extensions. At some point that might happen. But not from 1.900 to 10.000.

@Daniel ***********

that is the price all news outlets wrote.. That doesn't mean it's true though. It would be very weird if this would be the only extension that cost more than the 1900 baht *all* other extensions cost.

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

that sounds both right and wrong. All extensions regardless of visa type or length of extension, has "always" been 1900 baht.

Sounds wrong if this specific one would be 10.000.

On the other hand of immigration say so, then that's the price.

Just weird.

I've had documents rejected because there were slight shadows from taking the photo. That's hard to remove.

@Patrick *************

they probably can't make it better than the original file. Can you get a new digital copy?

From their reply maybe the quality of your digital copy is not good enough? Is it scanned in using a real scanner, or is it a photo of it?

Depends ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

@Phil *********

that's my usual method too. Just have several copies of whatever you can think of that they might ask for.

One year, after several years of the same document required, in two sets, they suddenly wanted 3 sets 😂.

And the photos had to be real photos, like the original, on set#3, but on set#2 copies were acceptable. ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

Now I just always have extra photos, extra copies etc.

It's not like it costs a fortune to do that either, or take lots of time.

Bank papers, 200 baht, and usually not more than 30 minutes spent.

Photos, a couple hundred baht if needing the family/address photos. Any photo shop can print out those in minutes.

If for marriage, 20 baht at the ampur (city hall) to get an updated marriage certificate, and in our local one, that is 10 minutes on average.

Then for all the copies of everything, well, copy that at home, or pay 50 baht or something like that in a copy shop. Again a few minutes.
