Stuart Chiverton some good points, valid reasons to consider doing it the route from outside Thailand

Simon Robinson Thank you for expanding, seems yes, its still an option, thank you for clarifying. Im not looking to ‘dodge’ any rules or find loop holes, I have plenty to deposit, the finance part is no problem, I don’t need agents to deposit anything. Im just trying to get clear facts on the options, especially as im a 20yr expat, British, living in a non english speaking country in Europe, with Permanent residency.

Not a problem, but occasionally can make things more long winded.

(Hopefully not)

apology for next question, entering visa exempt gives 60 days.

How can one, open a bank account to deposit 800k, and have it in there long enough to qualify for a visa application?

It means somehow in first days of entering, somehow opening an account, then its still only going to have been deposited there for maybe 40-50 days isn’t it?

Simon Robinson See, this is where the confusion is, can you explain a little please, why would it be possible, and even ‘easier’ doing it in Thailand?

Thank you if you can explain a little.
