What types of Thai visas do not require 800,000 baht in a local bank account?
Hello everyone, I'm new to the group, so sorry if this question has been asked a million times already. Is there a visa that doesn't require 800k baht to be sitting in a Thai account for moths beforehand?
Answer summary
The original poster inquires about Thai visas that do not necessitate having 800,000 baht in a bank account. Community responses highlight several visa options that do not have this financial requirement, including the Elite visa, DTV visa, LTR visa, Non-B visa, and tourist visas. However, advice is given on the need for the poster to clarify their nationality, age, and intentions in Thailand for tailored guidance. Additional mention is made of 'married visas' that require 400,000 baht, which also might need to be verified if sourced from foreign funds.

The retirement/over 50 visa (which requires 800k) only needs the funds in your account from an international transfer at the time of the Non-O application (except Jomtien). The 2 months seasoning is required for the 12 month extension.

There are lots of visas. But that doesn't matter.
What matters is what visa do you qualify for? Have you looked at your Thai embassy website?
We cannot guess everything about you and you've given literally no information for anyone to even try.
From what country? How old? Thai family? What do you want to do in Thailand? For how long? Etc etc
