ORIGINAL POSTER

i have renewed my Thai visa o-immigrant on August 12 , 2020 for one year till 2021. i had the required 800000 in the bank  in January even though i know it is required 2 months before  and 3 months after! which it should be till November 12th . my question is do it still keep 800000  till after the 12th of November a day or 2 or wait till December 1st to withdraw keeping it at 400000 till next year which i will put back the  extra 400000 keeping it at 800000.

i didn't Know if it was the exact day of the month, or month to month!   i know this sounds pretty like a pretty stupid question, but i would appreciate your advice!

thanks again

TLDR : Answer Summary

The user seeks clarification on the requirement to maintain 800,000 THB in the bank for their O-Immigrant visa after the renewal date. They are unsure whether they can withdraw funds just after the three-month period ending on November 12 or if they should wait longer. A commenter confirmed that compliance is strict, advising to keep the full amount until the exact date and maintain a minimum balance thereafter for future visa applications.

the dates are month to month exact. BUT I sure wouldn't pull it out the day you hit the 3 months after. They'll look next year and make sure you met the seasoning requirement.

so IF the date you applied for your extension was Aug 12 you need to keep the 800K in the bank THRU the 12 of Nov. then it can't go below 400 for the rest of the year AND you need it back at 800K baht 2 months before you apply for the extension next year.
