Would anyone know what the ramifications would be if your bank account was to fall below 400,000 on a retirement visa, thanks

At Bangkok immigration today, a good friend of ours from Switzerland tried to renew his retirement extension. Unfortunately he was turned down because he submitted a different bank account he had used from his previous 2024 extension. He has 2 accounts, both of them has over THB 800,000 all the time so he didn't remember which one to use. In fact he didn't know he had to use the same account every year from then on. IO said if he couldn't come back with that same account, for example if he had closed it and used the other one, he had no other choice but to leave the country! ( Or use an agent) 😔😤

I need solid advice about my current scenario. I arrived in Thailand for the first time in November, got the 60-day stamp then went to immigration and got a 30-day extension. I did a border run to get another 60 days. Then another border run for another 60 days. By the time I finally decided to get a non O retirement visa (90 days + 12 month extension of stay) I realized I didn’t have enough time so am doing one last border run in a few days. Yes I should have done things differently but I failed. I am leaving Thailand in July and returning in October. Do I need to get the non O visa before I leave so I won’t be rejected upon trying to re-enter? Or can I leave then begin the visa process immediately upon coming back in October?

My wife of 23 years (from Buriram) has been in the UK with me for 22 years and also UK paasport holder as well as Thai passport holder.

In July I start the application for Non-O visa but not sure which option to select on the E-Visa website. I’m not so clever with computer stuff.

As we have marriage certificates all in Thai as we were married in Bangkok, this is OK as we will be extending the Non-O based on marriage whilst in Thailand?

Not sure what other paperwork I need. The money will be in the Thai bank which i will open first day I land.

But applying for the Type-O is the first step and need to get it right!

Any help much appreciated m.

I went to multiple branches of Bangkok bank today, but they all refused to open a bank account with my DTV visa, does anyone know any branch where I can open an account?

Also on my entry stamp with  they put a date for six months only, I thought this visa was for five years. I got it directly from the consulate without using an agent so I’m completely unaware. How long can I stay in the country and I how often do I have to leave the country and is it mandatory to purchase health insurance? I’m sorry it’s a lot of questions, but any assistant will be greatly appreciated.

Once the visa is approved, does it matter if it's soft power or work cation? An agent told me today it's the same

Can I get a 30 day extension on visa waiver stamp at central fiesta? Or only at office near airport?

A quick question & Thanks in advance.

I've just completed 55 days of my 60 day visa allocation in Thailand, then flew out to Cambodia.

What would you suggest the minimum volume of days out of Thailand, before I fly back in via Bangkok airport, to hopefully get another 60 days?

Can anyone who has been on an education visa tell me the cons?

Hi, I've gotten a new passport but the passport office didn't mention anything about my stamp.

I entered Thailand on a Visa exempt by air 2 months ago and extended the visa by 1 month.

This stamp expires on the 21st so I'll be flying into Hanoi from Chiang Mai.

I am also allegedly flying to Bangkok tomorrow but I just realized my stamp is in the old passport (which I have on hand). Please advise - the UK passport office never said anything about the stamp.
