george Posted July 16, 2003 Share Posted July 16, 2003 More news from the boys in brown: We have just got information that the Immigration Bureau will require 400,000 Baht in the bank for a foreigner married to a Thai to get a yearly extension of a Non-Immigrant "O" visa. Unconfirmed news, but I believe this will be effective from July, 2004. Will keep you posted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alykev8892 Posted July 18, 2003 Share Posted July 18, 2003 The 400,000 is annual income or a combination of annual income plus any bank savings ... same as with the 800,000 currently for retirement, correct? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hukster Posted July 22, 2003 Share Posted July 22, 2003 The 400,000 should not be a problem as most people will prabably spend close to that in a yr anyway. I hope everyone knows that you can use these monies during the year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lopburi3 Posted July 22, 2003 Share Posted July 22, 2003 Do not use it during the review period however as if they call bank and requirements are not met you will not get the extension until they are from what I have seen posted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
