Popular Post ubonjoe Posted February 16, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted February 16, 2019 It is not a requirement to show the 400k baht is still in bank when you do your 90 day report. There is nothing in the new rules that go into effect on March about it. Same for a a entry from a OA long stay visa. Since you are already on extension the rules do not apply to you until apply for your next extension. 6 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only the clause for retirement was changed. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moe666 Posted February 16, 2019 Share Posted February 16, 2019 The need to show 400,000 at 90 day report was a one off statement in one of the other threads posted by a TV user. As Joe says nothing in the police report about it but it has developed a mind of its own being substained by post such as this one. All they need to do at your next extension is to senie you if 400,000 was not present in your bank account as required 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Guderian Posted February 16, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted February 16, 2019 You can do the 90-day report online. How would you demonstrate your bank balance in that case? So I'd say no, you won't have to show any bank balance at the 90-day reports. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MadMuhammad Posted February 16, 2019 Share Posted February 16, 2019 My 2 cents is that it won’t be checked at 90 days only on renewing your yearly extension. What will happen if it’s found you didn’t have over 400K but have the appropriate 800K by renewal time is beyond me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimn Posted February 16, 2019 Share Posted February 16, 2019 I dont know how other areas manage their offices but I do know that Jomtien manages a fully functionalised office. Each numbered section has its own area of responsibility. The retirement desk number 8 has nothing to do with the marriage desk number 7. In the case of 90 days reports, it works incredibly well. You just show up with your passport with the previous slip, no silly forms to fill in. The officer enters your details into the system and issues a new slip. In and out in under 10 minutes. Now I know people are worrying, but I would like to think that most members of TV have some intellegence and common sense. Do you seriously believe the 90 day desk will give 2 hoots about your bank balance, its not their function. In any case many people do a 90 day report online, by post or they may be out the country and not be required to do a 90 day report. So people it all points for me that you will have to show some sort of proof when you do your next renewal that you have not gone below 400k. If you do then no extension. Its the only way of efficiently carrying out these checks. I know the "how do you know" and "wait and see" brigade will come back and dispute this, but its the only one that makes any sense. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shiver Posted February 16, 2019 Share Posted February 16, 2019 I've never been asked to provide proof of funds ever with 90 day report. I don't think it's related to visa in any way (though of course they'll check the dates on that when you report while they're at it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice to see we have ANOTHER thread on one issue. Why can't people chill out, wait a couple of weeks and see what actually emerges. Because,oh short sighted one ,if you’ve just extended your retirement visa in January (as I have) and rely on the income method,then it effects your planning effective from this month (February) because in order to have 12 monthly transfers of 65k from abroad to qualify for your next extension,the first one will have to go on this month. Don’t get that done and you will have to resort to the 800k deposit route. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just asking... If someone renewed their extension this month, in Feb 2019, do they have to put 400k in bank in Mar 2019? Or, can they wait until Nov 2019 to put 800k in the bank 3 mths prior to their next renewal in Feb 2020 which would be as per the old rules? Would it be worth the risk that the IOs will agree when it's time to renew that you didn't need the 400k?
