Home » Reader question » Reader question: do I have to send an income statement to two embassies
Dear readers,
I have state pension from the Netherlands and Belgium. Do I now have to go to 2 embassies for my income statement annual visa? I have a Dutch passport.
Who can answer this question for me.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Adri
I do not think so. Any embassy or consulate within the Schengen area is good. I always go to the Austrian Consulate in Pattaya with my Dutch income data, and that goes flawlessly. Hi
I go to the Austrian Consul every year and it works perfectly. Bring a copy of all your income and they will confirm this. The Dutch Embassy in Bangkok also does it, but this saves you a lot of time and costs
You must meet the capital requirement for Thailand anyway. This means that if your Dutch AOW is not sufficient, you can supplement it with your Belgian AOW, or vice versa, of course.
You can of course also deposit sufficient money into a Thai account to supplement the AOW (deposit 3 months before extension!!), if this is not yet sufficient together.
You can get an income statement at the Austrian consulate in Pattaya
Hello Adrian,
You only need one income statement, so an application at either the Belgian or the Dutch embassy. In both cases you must provide proof of your income. Whether there is a difference with regard to the applications at the Embassies, I do not know. However, since this year, proof of income must also be submitted to the Dutch Embassy, while this was not the case before.
Best regards. Bz
If your Dutch state pension meets the wage requirement in Thailand, I would leave it at that
You must demonstrate how much income you have. If you do this by means of bank statements, you will simply receive your income statement. I have not come across anywhere that your income only counts from the Netherlands.
Dear Adrian,
I regret to disappoint you regarding the legalization of certain documents at the Belgian Embassy. They only provide services to Belgians registered at the embassy.
See following link: https://diplomatie.belgium.be/nl/Diensten/Diensten_in_het_buitenland … under point B it is clear:
B. What services are the consular officers NOT allowed to provide?
Since the entry into force of the law on the consular code on 15/06/2014, administrative assistance is only provided to Belgians registered in the consular population register. Administrative assistance to Belgians who are not registered in this register is limited to issuing a temporary travel permit if the conditions for issue are met.
Not entirely correct. Or at least “administrative assistance” should be read restrictively.
I am not registered with the Belgian embassy (my place of residence remains in Belgium). In the last 2 years I have gone to the Belgian embassy several times for an affidavit (e.g. income statement) or another intervention (e.g. approval of a translation of an administrative document).
As a non-registered Belgian you can therefore simply go to the Belgian embassy for your income statement.
The Dutch embassy will only issue a statement if the Dutch Tax and Customs Administration can check whether the statement is correct. Anyone who receives a pension from a country other than the Netherlands will therefore not receive a statement. So simple, absurd and not in accordance with European regulations. The Netherlands discriminates against its own citizens here. Go explain that to the Thai immigration service.
Your bank statements state that you will be deposited money. Is sufficient. I also didn't have to show who dumped it. So just get my income statement. It took some doing before she understood that she had to add up the AOW and company pension.
