Reader question: Income statement for emigration Thailand
Dear readers,
I have gone through town and country to get my income statement from the Apeldoorn tax authorities (which I need for emigration to Thailand) translated into English. The IRS says it can't take care of it.
Has anyone struggled with the same problem?

Can I be so bold as to ask what you need it for?
If you mean the statement for a visa extension, for example due to marriage or retirement, you do not have to have that statement made in the first place, you fill in the income yourself, and secondly, you get the form you use for this from the site from the embassy and that letter is in English.
There are Immigration offices that will want to see the letter certified afterwards, and possibly translated into Thai and re-certified.
Or do you need the letter for something else? Then it matters where you are now. In the Netherlands you can have it translated into English, in Thailand too. But in these countries there are different rules for certification and you will receive an explanation about this on the website of the embassy.
Hi Mary-Ann, the question you are asking seems a bit odd to me if I may say so. We also emigrated to Thailand on April 1 (no joke and we are 64 and 65 years old) and have never had to fill in an income statement from the tax authorities. So I don't know how they get to that in Apeldoorn. And what Erik indicates is correct, you have to enter your income yourself and have it legalized at the Dutch embassy in Bangkok. Maybe this will help you.
With a visa retired O application in the Netherlands, the embassy will ask what your income is. At the time, 2 years ago, it was sufficient to show 3 bank statements on which the salary was paid.
Once in Thailand when extending the annual visa, go to the Dutch Embassy in Bangkok and enter the salary you receive monthly or otherwise.
send the form correctly and you will have it back in 10 working days and you must show it at immigration or a copy of it
here's how to do it
Mrsgr Willem
Your monthly or annual income must be confirmed by an 'income statement' from the embassy or similar. This document should not be older than 6 months and can be obtained as follows:
Via the Dutch embassy in Bangkok, costs, nowadays 1400 baht; see http://thailand.nlambassade.org/producten-en-diensten/consular-services/consulaire-verklaringen Can be applied for at the embassy (apply in the morning, pick up in the afternoon) or in writing (it takes around 10 working days).
To be submitted: A completed application form, click here, a copy of your passport, administrative fee (1400 baht), prepaid envelope with your address on it. You do not have to send income data; you fill this in yourself on the statement. Don't forget to include your contact details on the statement. (The form states: 'The Embassy of the Kingdom of the Netherlands accepts no responsibility for the contents of this document.', but it is accepted by Immigration).
In Pattaya also at the Consul of Austria, Mr Rudolf Hofer, 504/26 Moo 10, diagonally opposite the main entrance of Yensabai Condo (on the corner; 'Pattaya-Rent-a-Room'), costs 1780 baht. Opening hours: Monday-Friday from 11.00am to 17.00pm. The consul will make a summary of your income statement in English (must be documented by you, eg with 'annual statements'). Ready immediately.
Success!

Mary Ann,
I have now submitted an income statement to the immigration service twice for my annual visa.
First, you download the form from the embassy's website, fill it in and add the requested attachments and send it, including an addressed and stamped return envelope, to the embassy in Bangkok. You can send the amount due to the embassy of 1.200 baht in the envelope, but if you still have a Dutch bank account, you can transfer this to the amount of € 30 and enclose a printout of the payment.
You will receive this quickly back from the embassy and with that form you go to the immigration service with the requested forms for your visa.
The form from the embassy is in English and you must submit a copy of an income statement from your pension fund or any other institution.
Make a copy of the stamped form that you receive back from the embassy, this can be used to extend the driving license.
is 1400 baht Leo not 1200 baht
has been increased if you do not include the correct amount, you will get it back, you can send it again, it is important.
Willem
Mary-Ann, I think you still reside in the Netherlands.
The only thing you ask is the income statement that you have from the Tax Authorities must be translated into English, that can't be a problem at all, it takes some effort, hire a certified translation agency, have the translation legalized, I think Min. of Justice, the translation agency knows where, then have that legalization legalized by Min. Foreign affairs NL and then Thai Embassy. Perhaps you might as well have it translated directly into Thai and follow the same route?
If you are also looking for information for applying for a visa, please respond and you can be helped further, e.g. income statement not necessary if you can demonstrate a bank balance in NL that is sufficient, etc.

You do not need a statement from the tax authorities in Apeldoorn at all! I have been living in Thailand for 7 years and every year I go to a Schengen embassy or consulate with my income data, they make a letter (1800 bath) based on that, take it to immigration and Kees is done.
You cannot emigrate to Thailand, but must apply for an O visa every year and get a stamp at immigration every three months. The tax authorities in NL have nothing to do with this!
