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 question revolves around an expat's experience of having their bank balance dip below the required 400,000 baht for an extended Non-O visa due to an oversight. The expat is concerned about the potential consequences on their visa application, particularly since they are preparing to extend their stay based on marriage to a Thai national. Responses from the community suggest that immigration is generally strict about these requirements and there is typically no grace period for shortfalls. It is advised to directly consult with immigration officials at the local office, especially if the expat hasn't utilized a 60-day extension option based on family, which could provide additional time to rectify the situation.
