What is the monthly deposit method for NON-O marriage visa extensions in Thailand?

Visa Agents are’nt legal and you are looking down a barrel when you use them!

How long do you want to stay here in Thailand?

These agents are a short term fix but nothing for the future!

They’re just rubbish!

Hi. I was told that using a visa agent is not a legal way to get a visa extension???

It sounds like this is about the right time to get a Visa agent involved and get everything sorted out. Stress-free and time efficient.

As per

@Bra****

in short.

Go to your local immigration and get the information on 1yr extension.

Get the 400k in your bank.

Then when you are near the end of the 90 day visa, apply for a 60 day visit Thai family extension, giving your money the time to season before the 1yr extension.

This really is the only path available other than maybe the agent route.

Which is problematic in the long run.

Better get that bank account with 400,000 baht in asap you need 2 months so already you are on overstay so you Better get it sorted, then for the next 12 months need to deposit from an overseas account 40,000 baht each month, if not just leave the 400,000 in the bank, dont spend it.

Does your embassy give income statements? Otherwise you will need to have already made 12 monthly deposits of 65k or 40k

Thai Visa Centre ask for Grace

The first year you need to deposit ฿400k for 2 months prior to applying

Year 2 you can do the monthly deposit of ฿40k a month for 12 consecutive months

Or you can put ฿400k in a bank acct and act like it never ever ever ever ever existed until your yearly visa renewal date

What do you need to do? You need to get 400,000 baht transferred into your Thai bank account. You already missed the requirement to have it in for 2 full months by the time you apply for the extension, which means you're going to have to apply for the 60 day "visiting Thai family" extension in order to have enough time for the 400,000 baht to sit for 2 months.

Many, if not most immigration offices will not accept monthly deposits for a marriage extension. They will only accept proof of your job in Thailand with a salary of 40,000 baht per month or greater.

You need to go to your immigration office and ask them if they accept monthly transfers. If they do, then you can try to set yourself up for NEXT YEAR. As the only proof of monthly transfers that immigration accepts (if they accept it at all in your case) is a 12 month bank statement showing every single month of the previous 12 months you received 40,000 baht or more as an overseas transfer. Miss a month by even a day and you're done.

Monthly transfers can NEVER be used for your first annual extension, and since you are currently on a 90-day non-O visa, this will be your first annual extension, so monthly transfers is not an option to you.

So go to your immigration office, find out if they accept monthly transfers for marriage extensions or only accept proof of payslip for a work permitted job in Thailand, and then plan from there. But you're not getting your extension without proof of bank balance this year.
