Hi guys, to apply for a 1-year marriage extension:
* Must have at least 400K in a Thai bank account for at least TWO months ( not 3 months like it has been claimed from some people) before going to the immigration office.
* The money can be transferred from abroad or from a Thai account ( I will do 300K from Transferwise since I already have other incoming transfer from other Thai accounts for more than 100K ).
Could you please confirm the above statements?
If the Non O stamps is expiring on the 15th of April is OK to have the balance +400K in the account around 10 of February or it's better to have it before?
Thank you 🙏
