I am on an 'O-A' visa and have to do my first extension of stay in August.

I understood that it was necessary to have the full 800K in your bank account 2 months prior to the due date.

But, today I was told it is three months, prior to the due date.

Can you please advise the correct length of time.

TIA
Answer summary
The correct length of time for maintaining the 800,000 THB in your bank account prior to applying for an extension on an O-A visa is at least 2 months before the application date. After the application, it is also required to keep a minimum balance of 400,000 THB for the rest of the year.

There is a process to convert the O-A visa...and get the O visa with extension. Read how by looking at the posts under the TOPIC

"Change O-A visa to O"...
