If you go to your bank website instead of printing the statement, you can download as a pdf and save it

If you have your own scanner at home, you can scan as a color and convert it to p. DF with the scanner software, I've been using that for 7 years now. No problem.

my bank charges me less. Because the bank wise uses is in the United States. They send it over to my Thai bank. I get the rate at the time. I do the transfer, and I pay a fee, which in the end.There's a couple hundred dollars cheaper on the money.I send over

I just sent a wire to wise then they convert to my Thai account. It's a better rate than transferring directly to Thai account. Also it's not an international transfer so all around cheaper.

Just remember if you need any internal transfer paperwork you must get it from the office you open your account so if you relocateyou must go to that branch. So be sure you are staying in that area.(Bangkok Bangkok)

what I did say it makes sense. Since I am going home for 7 months, I am just trying to get a plan together for next year.

Since I am only in Thailand for 5 months every year, I simply don't have all the time. I need to get it done here in Bangkok. Next year I can come to Thailand on a 90 day. Type O Visa, but I need my marriage certified to get my extension of 60 days. That is visiting Thai family in Thailand. I was reading on the internet that 2 years ago, the US embassy in Bangkok does not certify marriages anymore. That has to be done in your home country. Where the marriage was done. Yes, when I come back to Thailand I have an agent who will do the translation and taking care of getting it stamped.

thank you for all of the knowledge. I will be returning back to my home country for the summer time. And I will contact my embassy in New York to get my marriage license. Certified, so when I come back, I can get it translated and registered.
