I’ve been working on keeping 400k in my account for non-o 1 year and it accidentally dipped under 400k by like 70 baht for a few days before I noticed.. I immediately replaced the money but does that mean I’m screwed? I had it all lined up for my visa ending in 2 months.
How much grace can immigration centers afford us with these types of accidents?
TLDR : Answer Summary
The original poster (OP) is concerned about their Non-O visa status after their bank account balance dipped below the required 400,000 baht by 70 baht for a few days. Although they replaced the money promptly, they are seeking clarification on immigration's grace period for such circumstances. Responses from the community indicate that there is typically no grace period for account dips; many users shared their experiences of having faced strict enforcement by immigration, where even slight dips led to denied extensions. It was suggested that the OP may still be eligible for a 60-day family extension and should consider visiting the immigration office for advice, especially since they have not yet utilized this possibility. It was also noted that the money should be consistently maintained above the threshold for specific periods depending on visa type.
