TLDR : Answer Summary

When applying for a DTV visa extension of 180 days, it's commonly indicated that you may need to resubmit the financial documents showing at least 500,000 THB in your account. Experiences shared by others suggest that immigration officers may impose additional requirements, such as proof of residency and a longer duration of funds in your account. Due to potential complications, some recommend considering a border run to reset your visa.

If you don’t want to do the extension just do a visa run either by air or land…it will reset your visa and your 90 day report date…if not you will have to show your seasoned bank acct with the ฿500k a map to your residence and anything else the I/O might want to see…good luck

What entry scheme did you use to apply, digital nomad or soft power? Immigration will want to see updated paperwork and seasoned finances. As mentioned just do a border bounce and save yourself a lot of headaches.

I did our extensions in Krabi and the officer there wanted to see that the funds had been in our accounts for 3 months. He also wanted a print out of Google map that showed where we live and a picture of us outside our house (2 things I didn't have lol)

But yes - the money was a big thing for our extension.

gotta love it haahhahaha!! Our immigration head honcho has a good sense of humor and I managed to keep it light - but he was not happy and told me numerous times - just do border run - next time you do border run - border run much easier 😂 He also had a headache - so it wasn't a good day for him.

I love Thailand 🇹🇭 ❤️

Most reports indicate that immigration offices do not want to give this extension. They will throw up many barriers to prevent you from successfully applying for it, and suggest you do a border bounce by leaving Thailand to get a new stamp.

Here are the official requirements, but immigration offices are free to add their own requirements as they see fit.
