Hmm. Hua Hin is a bit different. My immigration doesn't ask for my wise statements for Kasikorn. The reason is because the international transfer codes are on the bank statement. I admit, I do print out all my wise statements and put them in a separate folder...just in case. Also letters from three sources confirming who puts my money in the bank backhome. Retireement, VA and SS. I just print those if they ask for them.

smart to check with them in advance. We do that every time....or at least call. Sometimes forms get updated and the ones I downloaded were not accepted. I always bring exactly what they need...and put some other items in a folder i don't show them...just in case they want photos, wife's ID, some backup financial data. They want me to the bank on the same day as I go for my annual extension on that non O. (retirement). I'm not in Hua HIn though. I also put a small deposit in the bank on that day...so the bank book and statement of balance match.

true. our immigration insists that we update with the bank on the same day we apply for the extension. (Used to do this the afternoon of the day before). And..yes good to do a small deposit when you get to the bank, and get the updated balance matching on their printout and your bankbook. Not all Immigration offices are the same...you can call and ask.

airplanes are swtiching to electric. Need to land and recharge every 2 hours. Those chargers run on fuel,though.

not sure if this helps...I am looking into an "usufruct agreementt" with my wife. My wife owns the property. Supposedly, it allows the lessee to sublet the property as well. I thought this might help me, in case something happened to my wife....so that I could keep living on the property (unless I go first lol). Just an idea..I haven't done it yet. You can check if the banks will accept this for the purpose of opening an account. In any case...I have a yellow book that was fairly easy to get.
