From Brandon on another thread and if I had to bank on one of you being correct it would be BT

‘you only have 2 options for the first 1-year extension from a 90-day non-O visa. Embassy certified income or 800,000 baht in your Thai bank account. It doesn't matter if you have 10 years of monthly transfers, it will not be accepted for the first 1-year extension.’

what’s your point. I’m not the one wanting clarity I was just answering Paul’s query

@Max ************

general consensus is that you have to do 800k first Best to go with the tried and true method for people who may be confused rather than more complicated risky options fraught with complexity
