Do immigration authorities in Thailand require proof of the source of funds for the 400k baht requirement for a Non-O marriage extension?
Good evening good people. Question about 400k in my bank account requirement for Non O marriage extension.
Does immigration look into where money come from? I use transferwise to wire money to Thailand but on my bank statement it shows as local transfer. Would that be an issue, or do I have to use SWIFT from bank account in my name abroad?

Answer summary
The question addresses whether Thai immigration scrutinizes the origin of funds for the 400,000 baht requirement for a Non-O marriage visa extension. Responses suggest that, typically, no proof of the source is needed for domestic transfers, including those done through Transferwise, when properly documented as a long-term stay. However, users also caution about potential bank-specific complexities.

There are some complexities with using Transferwise, depending on which bank you use in Thailand. As it's not strictly a visa issue, suggest you join this group if you have any queries

IF you are talking strictly about the year extension you get based on marriage (AFTER you have a Non-O visa) there is no proof to show where the 400K baht comes from, so domestic transfers will work.
Make sure when you transfer using transferwise you select "long term stay in thailand" as that one has the best chance of getting flagged as an international transfer.
