Ellie Takei And if he asks Non imm. O incountry, he needs the 800k฿ in place I guess ?

Also guess that you don't need the money for a new year extension.

@Saxen ****
Not sure if you mean physically or digital ? For digital,

If you have a bank in your home country and have an app from your Thai bank account, you can easy do it in parts with your Thai bank app. The costs will be a bit higher but 'hey', think you need it only one time I guess.

Kurt Fzc, certainly not criticizing this group, but there are also a lot of people in the Thai visa advice

group. Maybe someone knows 🤷‍♂️

Maybe it's also wise to already look to the future. If you already have a Thai bank account, start transfering (as international transfer) a bit more than 40,000฿ (if legaly maried for Thailand) every month. Cannot look into y'r pocket ofcourse but hey, you need some Baht in Thailand anyway. If you have done this 12 months, after that, you also can ask for a year extension with no need for the 400,000฿ banked money. Then don't forget a re-entry permit if you want to leave and come back to Thailand within tis year extension. Good luck ! 🙏

@Steve ******
. With the 60 day extension, you mean the '60 days visiting family extension' ? This because you can do this only once a year I thought ? Or is it indeed once per entry 🤷‍♂️
Peter ****************
Gregor Huettner Indeed. And I thought it is even not possible to use the 12 months of income when y'r Embassy still hands out affidavits. When you have an affidavit, income has already been proven. Besides the Affidavit or
*******
k฿ on the bank, many times it's also possible to use a combination of those two. Then together in a year, it has to be the
*******
k฿.

And if you really have an Non imm. O-A visa, you get an extra year of stay if you leave Thailand and come back just before the Visa expires ! Still no need for a Thai bank account. Only a health insurance for that year. Watch out, should you want to leave and come back in that extra year, you need a re-entry permit !
