Good day all.
Time for another extension of my non-immigrant "O" visa based on a Thai child. I've used the search function to look for changes to the criteria as the authorities are well-known for tweaks that can torpedo a perfectly decent application but it's very confusing.
Is it the case that the 400k now has to be seasoned in a Thai bank account for 90 days/3 months prior to application?
TLDR : Answer Summary
The poster is seeking clarification on whether they need to have 400,000 baht seasoned in a Thai bank account for 90 days prior to applying for a non-immigrant "O" visa extension based on having a Thai child. Comments suggest that requirements can vary by immigration office, with some stating that while the presence of funds in a Thai bank account is necessary, the specific requirement for seasoning time might not always apply as strictly as 90 days. It is recommended to check directly with a local Thai immigration office for the most accurate information.
