ORIGINAL POSTERTLDR : Answer Summary
An American resident who recently entered Thailand on a Visa Exempt status is inquiring whether Jomtien Immigration requires a 3-month seasoning period for 800,000 Baht in a local bank account prior to applying for a Non-Immigrant O retirement visa. Community responses clarify that there is no seasoning required for the visa itself, but once the visa is obtained, the bank funds must have been in the account for at least 2 months for extension purposes. Additional suggestions include applying for a 30-day extension to allow time for the necessary processes.
