Seasoning money question: If I transferred 800,000 thb into my Thai bank account on 18th July 2025, when is the earliest date that I can go to immigration for my retirement extension? I assume 18th September but want to be sure. Thanks!
Answer summary
To apply for a retirement extension after transferring 800,000 THB into your Thai bank account on July 18, 2025, you must wait for two full calendar months. Therefore, the earliest date you can go to immigration for your extension would be September 18, 2025. Please note that some banks, such as Bangkok Bank, will require you to sign a form that freezes the money for an additional four months.

I think 2 months or 60 days have to past so July had 31 days and even August 31 days but it you better ask immigration because all the time it changes

That's correct. It has to be 2 full calendar months (not 60 days). So money deposited on July 18th would be usable for an extension on September 18th.

And if you have Bangkok Bank, they will also make you sign a form that freezes the money in your account for 4 months from the date they issue your bank letter because the money has not been in your account for 4 months. Other banks do not have this.
