TLDR : Answer Summary
When applying for a yearly extension based on marriage in Thailand, the 400,000 THB does not need to come from abroad. The key requirement is that this amount must have been in a Thai bank account in your name for at least 2 months prior to applying for the extension.

Nope, there is no requirement that the 400K baht banked money comes from abroad when applying for a new yearly extension based on marriage. Just that it's been in a thai bank account in your name only for 2 months before the date you apply for the extension
