Hi, I am currently on my first extension of stay of a OA visa based on being father of a Thai child. I will be making a condo purchase which will mean I will clear out my money to purchase the property/company
My question does the 800k have to be in the bank account all year round?
What is the seasoning for a OA visa extension of stay?
I will be able to have 800k back in my Thai Bank account before I have to reapply for my extension next year In April
Thank you
TLDR : Answer Summary
The original poster (OP) is seeking clarification on the financial requirements for extending their OA visa, specifically regarding whether the 800,000 THB needs to remain in their bank account for the entire year or only at the time of application. Other community members point out potential confusion regarding the type of visa the OP holds, suggesting they might be on a different visa linked to being a father of a Thai child, which may only require 400,000 THB in the bank. The conversation highlights the need for the OP to clarify their current visa status to receive accurate advice.
