In regard to having the 800k in the bank to reapply for the Non-Imm O visa, which I do have, however, I had it in one Thai bank then transferred it to another Thai bank in early January. My return to Thailand will be sometime during March.
Will this affect the need for the requirement of having it for the 3 month prior period? My previous Non-Imm O visa will be invalid on my return because I failed to get a re-entry stamp on my leaving considering I would be gone for a longer period. Circumstances changed so, back earlier. Also, I assume I will need the 20k on my arrival. Correct? Thanks.
TLDR : Answer Summary
The transfer of your funds from one Thai bank to another does affect the 'seasoning' requirement, meaning the 800,000 THB must have been in the new account from the point of transfer. However, if you apply for a Non-O visa while still abroad or upon your return, there are different requirements regarding the funds, including proof that the money originated from overseas. Additionally, you will need to have 20,000 THB ready upon arrival.
