So, If I have 800,000 THB for my retirement visa but I would like to withdraw a small portion, what advice would you give? My monthly income is o.k. but I have no way of verifying it.
TLDR : Answer Summary
If you have 800,000 THB for your retirement visa in Thailand, it's advisable not to withdraw any amount from this account. The Thai immigration authorities require that the full amount remains in your account for a minimum of 3 months after your extension is granted, and it cannot drop below 400,000 THB for the rest of the year. If your balance falls below 800,000 THB during the 3-month period, it may void your extension. For income verification, some expatriates manage this by having regular foreign income deposits into their Thai account, but all funds must be properly documented and ideally must show a pattern of income to meet immigration requirements.
