You must be your agent's friend!! I have done my own visa applications since 2007. I submit bank statements, pension advice forms + copies of passport, tabien baan, bank book and now tax return certificate is required.

I used to do 90 days on-line - now it is not possible at Hua Hin Immigration. No form to fill in just take your passport

It comes via Bangkok clearing bank. My pension always arrives in my Kasikorn Bank a couple of day after leaving UK. I set up an e-mail notification that informs the money is in mt local bank

Just write a will. I used 'Mod' speaks excellent English & wrote my will and my Thai wife's- She also signs my form to say I am still alive for my State Pension

Interesting. I wondered what would happen if I was sick and missed renewing my visa. One of the Immigration Officers I spoke to some years ago said you will have to start again

I use K Bank and they send me a detailed credit advice e-mail that shows the origin (UK) and the destination. I take 12 copies of this with 12 months statement copies. (Kasikorn will print off 6 months free - so twice yearly with a letter of confirmation on the last month). You will need copies of your bank book front and latest pages showing a deposit on the day you attend. I always did this the day before but I have seen people say their local immigration send them back to do it on the day of application). Then the relevant form with picture, passport etc.

a month is accepted

I always renew a month before expiry (in case rules change) and the new visa is 12 months from expiry of previous. Been doing this since 2008

65,000 THB a month income is sufficient if you do o have 800,000 THB

I always update at my bank the day before and had no problem at Hua Hin; however, I will check when I d my next 90 days that they are going to strictly apply the rule
