I am currently on retirement extension, due to expire in September!

Traveling back to USA next week!

Do not plan to renew retirement extensionin September.

Will apply for 90 day non o visit family visa to return to Thailand in September.

So next step will be applying for extension based on married to Thai national!

Question is at present my bank balance above the 400,000 required!

Since I'm not planning to renew current extension.

Is it ok to go below the 400,000 until 2 months before applying for extension based on marriage!

Thanks for any feedback on this question!

TOTALLY okay and you should have no issues as long as you get it to 400K baht 2 months before you apply for the extension ๐Ÿ™‚

When you return you will need a Thailand Pass. Watch for any changes to its entry requirements in coming months as you plan to return in September.

The way to stop your currect Extension of Stay is to leave Thailand without a Re-Entry Permit. If you do that there is no problem to take your money out of your account.

After you entered with a new visa based on being married you need at least 2 months before application date 400.000 Thb on a Thai Bank account on your name.
