non o married bank balance just below 400k

hello all

i have a question

my non o visa married expired 29-04-2026

butt last 2 days ago i looked on my bbk bank

and see that my bank balance is 130baht under the 400.000baht

i have just transfer money again to fill it

what can i do now

because i have just 57days left

is it better to getting a 60day extension visa based on visit family spouse

and when the money sits in full 60day

apply again for a non o married visa ?

is this a correct way?

thanks all in advance🙏🏽

I write with regard to the twelve month extension Thai wife/ Thai family, and specifically the duration that you need to retain the ฿400,000 bank balance.

I understand that some offices insist that the money is retained until the month's 'under consideration' is over, and some offices don't.

Can you indicate Bangkok's policy.

Thanks...

Applying for DTV in NZ

We are planning to apply for the DTV from NZ (and yes I know it is expensive here but for various reasons it still is the best place for us to apply from). Is there anyone here who has done that that can share their experience? We are both remote workers. Specifically, how long did the 500,000B equivalent need to be in your bank account before application? The embassy in NZ does not offer any specific information. Thanks for your help.

Hi everyone,

I have a question regarding the 500,000 THB financial requirement for the DTV. Once the DTV has been approved and issued, is this amount required to:

* remain available at all times during the 5-year validity, and/or

* be shown again at each entry into Thailand?

Or is the 500,000 THB only assessed at the time of application, with no obligation to maintain or re-prove the same balance for future entries (assuming no other red flags)?

For context: after approval, I plan to use a large portion of these funds (around 80%) for personal expenses/investments outside Thailand, meaning that at some point the full 500,000 THB equivalent would no longer be available in my bank account.

I’m not asking about visa-exempt entry, but specifically for valid DTV holders making multiple entries over the 5-year period.

If anyone has first-hand experience or official guidance on this,

I’d really appreciate it.

Thanks in advance 🙏

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?

Non-o marriage visa

Hello everyone! Question for those who recently applied for non-o marriage visa in Vientiane. As I understand, you need 400k in your account at least 2 month before extending you marriage visa in local immigration. But is it also true for getting a new visa in Vientiane? Or can you deposit 400k like a week before applying for 1 year non-o multiple entry visa and then re-enter the country every 3 month without going to immigration?

In the past 2 years I got non-o multiple entry each year and had to re-enter Thailand every 3 month. But they never asked me for the 400k in the bank or 40k/month income.

Appreciate any info!!🙏

What’s required for extension at Patong Immigration office? Typically I’ve found this office to be very relaxed with their requirements on things, but not sure when it comes to DTV.

Hello and good day to everyone!

I have two quick questions:

The first one is, I currently have a DTV workation, and in 3 weeks it will be 90 days since I arrived in the country. I've heard that it needs to be declared. I am currently in Chiang Mai; is this done at the same place as the visa extension? Also, do I need to prepare anything in advance, or should I just show up with my passport, and that's enough?

The second question: Once I leave the country and decide to come back, do I still need to prove I have 500k baht in my bank account, or is there no more check?

Thank you so much in advance for your answers! :)

I and my wife(both over 50) want to apply for 1 year non-O-A retirement visa in home country(Hong Kong). I want to know that can we extend our non-O-A visa annually inside Thailand? What is the requirement for application of the extension?

Thanks

If you already have the DTV digital nomad visa, do they check again the 500.000THB in your bank account upon rearrival? 🤔
