When I put my 800,000 baht into KB . Will I be able to transfer it back to US if an emergency arrives and I have to go back? Is it safe ?

Seasoning money question: If I transferred 800,000 thb into my Thai bank account on 18th July 2025, when is the earliest date that I can go to immigration for my retirement extension? I assume 18th September but want to be sure. 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

What do you find to be the cheapest, easiest, and fastest service to use when transfering smaller amounts money to Thailand?

Hi a relative newbie here.

I arrived from UK on Saturday on non o Visa

I have obtained certificate of residence from immigration and today was successful in opening a bank account with Krungthai Bank.

What is the correct way to transfer the 800,000 ?

Can I just do it from my UK bank direct to Krungthai bank?

Thanks in advance

Hi,

On 6 June 2024 the IO here in Chiang Mai granted me an extension of stay based on the Non - O over 50 (retirement) visa using the international bank transfer of 800,000 baht. The expiry date ends on July 2 2025 (in effect 13 months according to the stamps in my passport).

The next extension of stay will be applied for and based on the monthly income method of 65,000 baht minimum international bank transfer every month for 12 months.

Question:-

Do the 12 x monthly statements run from:-

1) June 2024 to May 2025 inclusive (12 months);

2) July 2024 to June 2025 inclusive (12 months);

3) June 2024 to June 2025 inclusive (13 months).

Regards!

Hi All, Renewed my Non O yesterday but had problems at the bank again with them not understanding what's required. Eventually got there but I'm wondering if anyone has swapped their bank recently while using the 800k method for the visa? Would I need to duplicate the 800k in the new account or can I transfer it from old to new, after the 3 months is up? Thanks

What is the best way to send large amounts of money to thailand. I have a bank account in thailand already. ?

Looks like WISE dropped the category for "Funds for long term stay in Thailand " or words to that effect. Just did a transfer and didn't have that as a reason. Everyone I have done so far this year had that as a reason. I believe though that isn't really necessary for a renewal on a marriage extension of stay.

Hello to everyone, for a non immigrant O Visa we should transfer 800 000 Baht from our own account onto our Thai account in Thailand. Right?

The question is, how does a declaration ( report) of this transfer to German authorities and Thai authorities work?

Who will report it ? we as the one who transfers or the Banks which makes this transfer or get the money in Thailand?

Thank you in advance for your suggestions and information 🙏😊🙏
