I get a NON-O wedding visa on the 16th of September with 400,000 THB in bank at Chiang Mai Immigration valid until the 14th of December.

I came back on the 5th of November to get the 1 year NON-O visa with the 400,000 THB in bank since the 15th of September and I get a stamp valid until the 13th of January when I must come back to get a stamp for 11 more months. The immigration will come soon in order to check with a neighbor that I live at the address I gave with my wife.

My question is do I have to keep the 400,000 THB in bank until the 13th of January.

Thanks for your help.

I thought I had answered your question a few days ago...but...

YES ...you MUST KEEP the 400,000 Thb in your bank account while your application is UNDER CONSIDERATION by Thai Immigration...

That could take one month or more...from your extension application date...

DO NOT TOUCH THE 400,000 until you have the immigration UNDER CONSIDERATION stamp closed out.

Its very easy.

Just leave the 400,000 in the bank.

That way you dont have a problem.

You can use the same money every year.
