If someone could just explain a couple of points regarding non O visa and financial requirements,I would be greatful.

As I understand it 800k in thai bank 2 months before application. The account cannot fall below 400k for the duration of visa.

Are there any other financial stipulations which I'm missing.

Any help or advice welcome.

Cheers
Answer summary
The Non-O visa has specific financial stipulations, particularly if you are applying for a retirement extension. You must maintain 800,000 THB in a personal bank account for at least 2 months before applying, and this amount should not drop below 400,000 THB for the duration of your visa. Additionally, you will need to provide 12 months of bank statements during the next renewal, which may take time to obtain from some bank branches.

Hi

How long can you stay on a non O visa and is this for over 50's for retirement? It's very complicated so if anyone can recommend a website that explains the different types of visas that be great 🙏

you can stay on a non O visa for 90 days. You can get an extension of that visa for up to a year depending on the reason the visa was issued.

At the time of your next renewal you’ll need to supply 12 months bank statements. Many branches won’t be able to give you that off hand and will need to apply to their head office to get. That may take a couple of weeks to get. Just so you’re aware for your next renewal.

If using banked money of 800k for a retirement extension then it needs to be in a bank account in your name only for 2 months prior to applying. It needs to stay in there for 3 months after and the balance can’t go below 400k for the rest of the year. To apply for the following year you would need to top it back up to 800k 2 months prior to applying.
