@Nongnuch *******

it is true. I just had to show bank records etc in November 2023. I'm currently on the metv. If applying in the USA, you will be asked. Everything is on the application website

If youre applying online, Has to have MINIMUM required BALANCE maintained for the length of time BEFORE applying. I believe it was 90 days for 6 month metv. And u WILL have to submit statements for each month up to applying. Plainly states everything in visa application instructions online.

Is my visa plan for staying 9 months in Thailand correct?

Jay ****

6 month metv is very easy to get with 30 extension. Then you get only TWO boarder bounce entries per CALENDAR year, so Jan to December. And a 30 extension on each.

Can I bring my vehicle to Thailand when I retire and live with my Thai wife?

VERY SMART advice. I do exactly that with a few long vacations in between. Still have your trucks, Harleys, guns, etc back home.

How can I successfully open a bank account in Thailand for a Non-O visa?

Jay ****

Thailegaladvise. Can get u one. You don't have to get insurance. Each bank and each branch make up their own requirements daily. So agent or shop around. Use a major bank and preferably not in the tourist hub areas as banks know they can strong arm you there.
