On renewal of EofS Marriage seasoned money is it 90 days or three calendar months? Counting from the date it was deposited for the requirement. Just confusion when chatting with Someone about wording as 90 Day reporting (TM47) EofS mentions 3 months seasoned. I said count 90 days from when first deposited to the requirement. It’s nice to be clear but as with Thai immigration I dare say it isn’t clear.

Answer summary

In the context of renewing the Extension of Stay (EofS) for marriage in Thailand, it is clarified that the funds must be seasoned for two months in a Thai bank account in your name before applying for the visa extension, not 90 days. The confusion arises because 90-day reporting is a different requirement and does not relate to the seasoned fund rules.

It’s 2 month.

Example

15th Jan -15th feb -15th March.

Doesn’t matter how many days in a month.

14 years I’ve been doing it and they have never questioned the days.

neither 😮

The actual rule as it's written for a marriage extension using the banked money method is

You need 400K baht in a thai bank account in your name only for TWO months before the date you APPLY for the extension.

90 day reporting doesn't mention anything about seasoning funds because it's just 90 day reporting a completely different thing.

thanks so much for all of the information you provide! You’re awesome!! QQ: the 400K, does that mean both my husband and I have to have to separate accounts (not joint) with 400K each in it? I was trying to find that info, but it wasn’t very clear.

that's 2 months date to date remember months aren't days and sometimes 2 months is more than 60 days 🙂 (and once in a while it's less if you are doing something during Feb 😉 )

Thanks for confirming. That’s exactly what Su (my wife) was saying when I asked her with her tutting at me. And me being old and forgetful and I get a little confused. But yes makes sense. And you proved her right so she’s very happy 😊
