TLDR : Answer Summary
The user has obtained a Thai marriage visa and wants to know if they can maintain their 400,000 THB in the bank without exchanging it for a better rate. There is confirmation that as long as the required balance is back in the account 90 days before the next application, it is permissible to use the funds as needed. Comments suggest varying opinions on whether to keep the money untouched until necessary for renewal or to utilize it while being cautious about timing the currency exchange.

Most financial analysts would recommend a series of equal transfers. Be it monthly, weekly or whatever. That way you will be close to the actual yearly average. Timing the markets rarely works out except in specific situations.
Have you got a visa or an extension of stay. If its a visa just leave it as you need it for the extension. If it's an extension of stay I'd leave until after the under consideration period then you can do what you want with it, but given you will have already changed it you may as well use it for spending money
