  12. The Administrator of my will, a Thai national accompanied me to my bank UOB, and I made him co signatory for two of my accounts. The matter of my Passing was made to the bank staff and they said that this was the acceptable way. The account with my B800,000 for immigration purposes remains in my name only. Thanks to all sensible commenters on this thread. John
  13. To CM Bob Thanks for the advice on the Immigration matter. Only I will have my name on that individual account. John
  14. When I did my Thai Will, with Star Visa I was requested to accompany two of their lawyers to the local Ampure Office. There we registered the Will and both lawyers where required to sign documents along with a Senior official of the Ampure. I was told by all three that my named administrator would now be able to go to my bank and obtain access to withdraw and money he required on production of the document provided by the Ampure. Following comments on this thread I today went to my bank, UOB, and asked about the procedure, that they would allow my named administrator access to my bank accounts. They hummed and hawed then after consulting a more senior lady said NO. OK I will withdraw all my money and transfer to my SCB account. After a discussion the lady’s told me to bring my Administrator to the bank and they would do the paperwork for him to be allowed to withdraw money from my accounts on my passing on. This is acceptable to me and now I have to get him to the bank on working day next week. John
