Can I use my 400,000 baht in the bank after applying for my marriage visa extension?

Daren *********

In my experience at Chiangmai immigration they have never asked me to prove funds for under consideration, but things may have changed . Play is safe and don't touch it until you get your extension stamp.

Is it common for Thai immigration officers to call and visit my condo after applying for a 90-day Non-Immigrant visa?

Daren *********

I am glad you had the same experience as me. I am fed up of people on here saying you have to give money. They are stupid if they do. If there paperwork is right, you don't have to pay unless you are stupid enough to fall for it.

On my first Marriage extension in Chiang Mai 3 or 4 immigration officials turned up. However, I certainly did not give them any money for their visit

If you offer, obviously they will accept. Maybe too many people are falling into the trap that a bung is expected.

My later renewals of the marriage extension no visits.
