Question About Income Requirements For Extension Of Stay Based On Marriage

[bifftastic]

Hi,I'm aware of the income requirement of 40,000 baht/month or 400,000 lump sum deposited in a Thai bank account in my name only, seasoned for 3 months prior to the application date.

I've just heard a rumour that if there are children in the marriage, either my own or from a previous relationship, then the requirement is increased by 10,000/month for each child.

As I've never read anything about that before I was wondering if anyone has any experience of gaining an extension based on marriage to a Thai national who has children and if this is true or not.

Cheers,Biff

No

No

Thank you, a very concise reply

I assume you mean "no, it's not true" ?

There is no such requirement.

And the time for money in account is two months for first application.

Thank you I didn't think there was, worth checking though.

Two months for the first application, duly noted.

Cheers,
