Hi all. Question about funds in home country bank for Non O application.

Once visa is granted are there any further requirements to show funds again.

Not being dodgy want to pay off car lease with funds and then replace with sale proceeds before leaving for Thailand.

Thanks in advance

TLDR : Answer Summary
Once the Non-O visa is granted, there is no requirement to show funds again unless you wish to apply for an extension of stay in Thailand. For an extension beyond the initial 90 days, you must have 800,000 baht in a Thai bank account at least 2 months prior to the application.

And may I suggest you do not use Bangkok Bank. Krungthai, Kasikorn, SCB....any other bank!!

What Stuart said. If you want to stay longer than the 90 days that the non-O visa allows and get a one year extension of stay, you’ll need that 800,000 baht in a Thai bank account 2 months before you file for it. Otherwise, you’ll be out of status 90 days after you enter the Kingdom and will have to leave and apply for another visa outside of Thailand or come back with a visa exempt for a 60 day stay.

Once you have the visa then there is no need to show funds again - other than if you were wanting to get an extension in Thailand.
