Can I move my 800,000 THB to a fixed deposit account without affecting my visa extension?

Andy *********

During the period when it can remain at 400k or more, move 400k to the Fixed Deposit.

Once that is safely moved, moved the other 400k.

Obviously have a little more than exactly 800k before moving any, and make sure there won't be any bank fees to take you below the required amounts.

What should I do if my bank account temporarily dropped below the required 400,000 baht for my marriage visa extension in Thailand?

Andy *********

Dawn Costello above nailed it.

Use an agent who tells you they can get it approved.

And try to negotiate in advance a (at least partial) refund if they fail.

But mainly - Use an effective agent.

There are many who can take care of it.

I've never before read that the monthly income method for a Retirement Extension can only be done after your first year.

Where did you come up with that?

Do I need an onward flight ticket to enter Thailand on an O visa?

Andy *********

Are you entering with a Visa?

If not, the AIRLINE - NOT Immigration - will usually demand to see an onward ticket.

I've seen recommended:

Andy *********

@Steven **************

No.

Airlines ask for it if one DOES NOT have a Visa,

because they are obligated to fly the passenger back to point of Departure if entrance is refused.
