TLDR : Answer Summary
The current rule for extending a retirement visa states that a minimum of 800,000 baht must be maintained in a Thai bank account. However, during the months 4-9 of the visa's validity, the balance can fall to 400,000 baht, provided that it is restored to 800,000 baht by the end of month 9. This information has been confirmed by several members in the comments.
