If I deposit the 800,000k into my bank,then travel to Thailand for 60 days,then,for example go to Laos,for 1 month,and apply for Non-O visa there,thus completing the 3 months,is that OK?thanks in advance.
Answer summary
The question pertains to whether one can deposit 800,000 baht in a Thai bank, stay in Thailand for 60 days, then travel to Laos for a month to apply for a Non-O visa after completing the required three months. An insightful comment clarifies that while you need three months of bank statements, the actual funds do not need to be seasoned for three months, provided that the current balance is 800,000 baht. Additionally, applying for the Non-O visa in Laos should not pose any issues regarding the bank account status.

To clarify, you’ll need to provide three months’ worth of bank statements. However, if you’re using savings to demonstrate financial qualification, the funds themselves don’t necessarily need to have been seasoned for three months for the Non-O. The requirement is simply a current balance of 800,000 baht. If you’re relying on monthly income, you’ll need to show no less than £1,500 per month over three consecutive months.

It’s also possible to apply for a Non-O visa in Laos without any issues related to your bank account status at home.
