What are the rules for obtaining a bank statement for a retirement visa extension in Thailand?

Frederick *********

Tod Daniels if my Bangkok Bank account is not in the government building at BKK CW can I get a letter/statement with regard to my 65k monthly transfers from that branch. Also, will they do that the same day.

Am I correct in assuming the TM30 form for this is the same as the one I used to make my initial report in May.

@Steven **************

thanks for your information. With regard to the printout of all international transfers. Do you know if the Bangkok Bank branch down stairs in CW would do this for me, even if my account is not at this particular branch. I ask, because being in the same building they would obviously know exactly whats required.

Always take your Thai speaking partner or friend with you when applying. I opened two accounts last year, letting my Thai partner do all the talking and explanations.

firstly, was it the Chaengwttana office that you reported to. Secondly, you say you were ALL fined, surely this was because were late reporting. I just can not see them fining someone who is reporting at the earliest opportunity, ie the day the office re-opening after the weekend shut down.
