When should you deposit 800,000 baht for a non-retirement visa application in Chiang Mai?

This is the GENERAL requirements list for an in-country initial non-O visa based on retirement/being over 50. You need to go to the Chiang Mai office to get the latest handout/take a photo of the requirements because Chiang Mai has definitely their own list. Still, this may give you a rough idea.

After the divorce

To apply for the initial 90 day non-O visa in Chiang Mai you need to have the 800K baht in a thai bank account in your name only on the date you apply for the visa for 2000baht.

You need a MINIMUM Of 15 WORKING days (have at least 21 calendar days) left on your stamp to apply because the application goes under review and then you go back and get the Non-O visa and a new 90 day stamp inked in after that.

GO to the main immigration office by the airport and get the hand out OR take photos of the graphic the have on the wall that lists the requirements to apply BOTH for the 90 day Non-O visa and then 2 months later the year extension <- it's the yearly extension that requires the 800K baht be 'seasoned' for 2 months before you apply.

BUT

if you have it in the account on the day you apply for the 90 day Non-O by the time that visa runs down and you can apply for the year extension it will be in the account for 2 months
