Does the 800k required for an extension of stay based upon retirement have to originate from outside of Thailand (so called FT transfers)

Thank yo

Wanted to confirm that the 800,000 bht needed for the non-o 60 day bank deposit to receive one year extension does NOT have to be shown as an electronic transfer form outside of Thailand.

Thanks

Hi I am on my 2nd year of non O visa with the 800,000 in the bank of Bangkok our visa is due June 7 2026 .

But we would like to go with a different bank, can we just transfer the 800,000 to the new bank and not be penalized

When you complete the o -a visa do you need to prove you have 800000. Sorry if this has already been asked. Just need to get finance sorted.

Hello folks, useful answers here, thanks to all who answered, Mods, Admins, Experts and general members with experience. My question is rather simple:

If I get "O" visa based on 800,000 THB in my Thai Bank account, keep that money intact year after year whenever next visa renewal is due, is that OK?

I have other sources of funds to live on.

Questions Regarding 1-Year Extension for Non-O Retirement Visa: 🙏🙏

1. Is it mandatory to provide proof of 800,000 THB being transferred from abroad, or is it sufficient to have the 800,000 THB seasoned in a Thai bank account for at least two months before applying for the extension?

2. Is there a processing or waiting period for the visa extension application? If yes, how long does it typically take?

3. Am I allowed to leave Thailand during the consideration period for the visa extension?

Happy new year y’all. Need some educated input. This is regarding the looming deadline for submitting everything for my first-ever Visa 1-year Extension of Stay. My 800,000 seasoning period ends either Fri Feb 28 (will be 60th day) or the following Monday Mar 3 (which will be 63rd day). What are my chances of approval on the Friday? I ask becuz Immigration site says 800,000 must be seasoned 60 full days. Do they strictly enforce? My prob is that by Mar 3rd I’m just 10 days from Non -O expiring. Say I’m on point with all other paperwork for that upcoming date at BKK Immigration (current day’s bank book + Bank letter, TM30 etc) — what are my odds of receiving Extension of Stay in that 10 day window between Immigration Day and expiration of my 90 Day Non-O. As always, you guys are an amazing resource so thank you. If consensus is that 10 days isn’t long enough to achieve the goal, I will be back on here with an interesting question about having a last card to play that I came to possess quite unintentionally.

One more questionsl about this Bank deposit of 800000..?

Have this to stay in Bank permanent or only when i renew/extend the Visa?

And thank you very much for all the comments on my Last question

Can I put 800000 in a Thai account and just leave it there for each years extension?

Good morning

I have OA Visa, if I change to O Visa

I have to prove, that my 800000THB Came from Switzerland, is this correct?

Thank you
