Marriage Extension 400k

[salween]

My bank account for the 400k baht marriage extension requirement still has much of the amount in it from last year.

1) Can I just top it off to 400k baht two (three) months in advance of my extension application date, or do I need to deposit a full 400k of new money?

2) Would like to confirm that there is still no requirement that such monies come from abroad, and a simple baht deposit at the teller window will suffice?

Thanks

1) You can top up. Immigration requirement is for 400k balance to be there for 2 or 3 months (depends on individual immigration office) before date of renewal application.

2) No requirement for funds to come from abroad.

egg & thaiphoon, thanks for the confirmation. Hardly ever deal with this account, but for the extension, so only really think about it once a year.
