am i able to just transfer 15k USD from stocks to savings and let it sit for 3 months and that will do for my DTV proof of funds?

First of all, thank you to everyone who is helping.

I would like to clarify the bank balance requirement for the DTV visa application. Do I need to show that during the past three to six months I consistently maintained a balance of over 500,000 THB?

At the moment I have a higher amount in my current account, but in previous months the balance was lower because I invest my funds and do not keep large amounts in the bank on a regular basis.

Could this situation affect the approval of my application?

Does anybody recommend an agento to apply to this visa? I see a lot of rejections for small mistakes and dont want to risk it.

Question about Non-O Retirement Extension in Thailand 🙏

Hi everyone,

I’m on a Non-O Retirement Visa (issued in Vietnam) and getting ready for my 1-year extension at Immigration Krabi.

I keep hearing different information, so I want to double-check a few things.

As far as I know, for the Non-O extension you only need:

✔️ 800,000 THB in a Thai bank account (seasoned 2 months)

✔️ Bank letter (same day)

✔️ Updated bank book

✔️ Passport + copies

✔️ TM7 form

✔️ TM30

✔️ Rental contract (valid on the day of extension)

✔️ ID card + house book copy from landlord

✔️ Fee 1,900 THB

So my questions are:

👉 1. Do I need any health insurance for the Non-O extension?

From what I understand, insurance is only required for the Non-OA visa.

👉 2. Do I need a 1-year rental contract?

My contract is valid but not for a full year — is that OK for the extension?

If anyone has recent experience in Krabi or anywhere in Thailand with the Non-O Retirement extension, your feedback would really help.

Thank you so much! 🙏😊

Have I got this right

I enter on a visa exempt.

Apply for an O-Visa, I have the requirements, and I get 90 days.

Apply for a year extension.

I have to leave after 90 days but need to get a re-entry visa to return.

I re-enter for another 90 days then leave after getting another re-entry visa which would allow me back in 7 months.

When I return can I apply for another year extension?

Thanks.
