The 800,000THB

In the account three months before application 

Can then use 400,000THB

And restore to 800,000THB two months before renewal?

Pretty sure I’m right, just need confirmation please

Answer summary

The poster is seeking confirmation on the visa financial requirements, specifically about maintaining an 800,000 THB balance in their bank account for a Thai visa extension. According to a comment, the 800,000 THB must remain in the account for three months after applying for the visa extension, allowing for a withdrawal to 400,000 THB afterward, with a requirement to restore the amount to 800,000 THB two months before renewal.

Almost.

Banked money for a 1-year extension for being over 50.

800K baht must be in your account for three months AFTER a new one-year extension application.

Keep it no lower than 400K baht through the rest of the year.

Then again You need to have 800K baht in your account for two months when applying for a new 1-year extension.
