No, you get free entry via the 60 day visa exempt stamp, if you hold a passport from one of the countries that qualifies.

@Nongnuch *******
that account is just what I call my visa account and remained at 400,000 baht plus whatever interest it has earned over the decades, I never touch it, as I also have my everyday account plus my FCD account all with Bangkok bank.

@Nongnuch *******
I haven’t been under 400,000 baht for 20 plus years

I didn’t say the branch doesn’t issue the letter confirming the money has been in my account for the specified time, I am saying that Bangkok branch in Cha-am doesn’t freeze your account like other people are mentioning.

@Matthew ********
as I mentioned above, I recently did another 12 months extension and was not issued with any letter which states my account will be frozen and even asked the branch manager who we know very well and she told us no they don’t. What happens at other branches in Thailand I don’t know, but it’s not the case in the branch in Cha-am.

Bangkok bank does not freeze your money when you apply for an extension based on marriage to a Thai National, have been doing my extension’s for years, and just recently extended for a further 12 months, and my account or money in that account was not frozen at all.

Every entry into Thailand is at the discretion of the immigration officer standing in front of you.

Luck of the draw with the IO, at the end of the day they have the final say who comes in and who doesn’t.
