What is the procedure and cost for obtaining a residency certificate in Thailand?

Gerg **********

It’s easy. Especially if you have a fluent Thai speaker with you. My wife did all the talking, I never said a word. I just needed my passport and my TM30. I think it was around 200 baht. Only took about 5 minutes once we sat down with the officer.

How do agents manipulate the retirement visa process with the 800k bank requirement in Thailand?

What is the easiest way to transfer funds from an Australian bank account to a K bank account in Thailand?

Gerg **********

If your bank does wire transfers using SWIFT codes, that’s a safe and easy way to transfer large sums. Ask your bank about it. If small sums, Wise, Remitly, etc works fine.

What are the rules for using a bank account for retirement visa extensions in Thailand?

Gerg **********

I don’t know, but I don’t see why it would have to be. As long as you can show 12 deposits from abroad you should be good, no matter what bank it comes into. I could be wrong.
