I am currently living in southern Thailand with my Thai wife. We were living in Bangkok on a retirement visa until these new financial rules were put in place. I didn’t have the 800,000 baht.

, Is this a yearly extension where I have to leave Thailand every 90 days or is it a yearly permit to live in Thailand without leaving? They also tell me that I need a Embassy stamp verifying my income (notarized by the US Embassy), which to my understanding the U S Embassy no longer will do? Although I live in southern Thailand, can I appeal to Chaeng Wattana?

@Tod ********

thanks 1 million Tod. We were going to fly to Singapore but my wife is scared to death of the coronavirus. We are going to attempt To do a border run.

It’s best to get to Thai Immigration and BKK early in the morning. Wednesday is the best day, watch out for holidays.

My Thai wife and I have been married almost 30 years

@Tod ********

yes I am here on an O that is good until I live in June 2020. I have transferred my income to Thai Farmers bank.

@Tod ********

Thank you very much. We have been to that office three times and each time the rules have changed. The last time we asked they said that the deposit of 50,000 baht had to be of record for three months then they would stamp the passport for an additional two month inspection. After that they would issue a 12 month extension of my O Type visa. I’m still confused.

Ray Hanson Krabi Immigration is excellent

To expand on my question, my understanding is the final responsibility is for the owner to report. Since the condo owner is a tenant in common I still question who has the final responsibility Thank you for your answers
