TLDR : Answer Summary

To maintain your retirement multi-entry visa after renewal, you must keep 800,000 THB in your bank account for two full months before the renewal date, and for three months after the extension is approved. At all other times, you cannot go below 400,000 THB.

can you open a Thai investment account and earn while the cash is sitting there? or does it have to be a regular bank with no interest.

you can have a straight savings account and as long as you can access the money any time you can have a fixed deposit account.

Must have in bank 800,000 two full months before extension renewal date

Keep 800,000 for three months after extension approved date.

Cannot go below 400,000 all other months.
