Just to be sure I have this the right way round.. 

 

Its 60 days / 2 months the first time.. And 3 months / 90 days each subsequent ongoing time ?? 

 

And any break in extensions resets it back to the 60 days.. So the fact I entered on a new non imm visa, for a 90 days permission of stay, will make it 60 days. The prior existence of annual extensions in my passport never makes that a judgement call.

If writing about applying for a extension of stay based upon retirement it has been 2 months for every extension since March of 2019. 

It is 60 days / 2 months of seasoned funds to be proven ON THE DAY applying for the 1-year extension of stay of such Non Imm O Visa.

 

If it is a Non Imm O - marriage Visa, the required seasoned funds are 400K if you opt for the money-in-bank method, and it is 40K monthly transfers if you opt for the monthly-income method (but when re-applying for the 1-year extension after the initial application you need to prove that you did those monthly transfers every month during the 12 months preceding your application).

 

If it is a Non Imm O - retirement Visa, the required seasoned funds are 800K if you opt for the money-in-bank method, but when re-applying for the 1-year extension of stay you need to prove that you kept that 800K during three months after your application was approved, in the next 7 months the amount on your personal bank-account should not go under 400K, and you should top it up again to 800K two months before applying again fro your next 1-year extension.

When using the monthly-income method it is 65K of monthly-income transfers (but when re-applying for the 1-year extension after the initial application you need to prove that you did those monthly transfers every month during the 12 months preceding your application).

 

Note: There are some rogue IOs that when applying first time for the 1-year extension of a Non Imm O Visa, require that the funds should be seasoned for THREE months on the day of your application. 

So it is recommended to check with your local IO before doing your application.  It is always wise to do so as your local IO might also have different or additional requirements than what the official IO rules/regulations prescribe.

You are not very clear but if you are asking about a 12 month extension based on retirement it is 2 months in the bank every time.

have to leave it there for 3 months after application then have to leave 400,000 for the remainder of the 12 months.

Thanks for your always useful info and no doubt most think of you as their most trustworthy source of advice.  Do you happen to have a link to the relevant law or policy on this?  Looked already, but couldn't find it.

It's 400k until 2 months before next application, then you need to top it up to 800k again, that's not 12 months. It's actually only 7 months with 400k during one year. 

I am still not old enough for retirement, the day I am I will get my 10 year (2x5) O-X.. Stop all this messing about for a while. 

Extension of stay for reason of Thai family (marriage).. I had thought all marriage retirement etc had the same seasoning periods. Obviously I know the difference in amount required to be seasoned. 

 

So theres no 3 month for each annual extension thereafter any longer ?? Its just 60 days / 2 months on the day you go (which can be always be 30 days before the end of the permission to stay and in some offices 45 IIRC) ??

When applying for the 1-year EXTENSION of stay on the basis of your Non Imm O - marriage Visa, you need to provide proof of 60 days / 2 months of seasoned funds ON THE DAY of application.

For a Non Imm O - marriage Visa, the required seasoned funds are 400K if you opt for the money-in-bank method, and it is 40K monthly transfers if you opt for the monthly-income method (so minimum 2 transfers of at least 4OK).

Once you are on an extension of stay and at the end of that 1-year permission to stay need to re-apply for a 1-year extension you need to provide evidence of

- using the money-in-bank method > 400K on your thai bank-account in the 2 months preceding the day of your application

- using the monthly income method > monthly transfers of 40K every month during the 12 months preceding your application.

Note: The PoliceOrder allows averaging of those monthly transfers, but some IOs insist that it should be at least 40K each and every month.

It has been 2 months for an extension based upon marriage for every extension for over a decade. There was never as 60 days/3 months rule.

It is for 2 months on the date you apply. You can apply up to 30 days early or 45 at some office. There is no minimum number of days to do it other than the last day.
