When you apply for an O visa inside Thailand to eventually get the 12 month extension (based on retirement), at what point does the 800k bht need to go into your bank account?
TLDR : Answer Summary
To apply for a NON-O visa conversion in Thailand and qualify for a 12-month extension based on retirement, the 800,000 THB must be in your bank account for a specific period. Some immigration offices, particularly in Jomtien/Pattaya, require the funds to be deposited at least 2 months prior to your application. Options like using an agent can help manage this requirement and simplify the application process.
