This must have been done before but I cannot find it. When applying for an O visa extension by reason of retirement, is it acceptable to have the 800k in a Thai investment account with one of the banks or, say, TISCO, or is it required to be shown in a savings account?

If some form of investment is acceptable to immigration, what proof of that investment would you be required to show to immigration?

Thanks

Only cash accounts are accepted. Normally that will mean a bank savings or fixed deposit savings account.

Lopburi3: I have asked a similar question on a seperate thread. In your opinion will the bangkok Immigration accept for the 800,000 requirement a 15 month fixed deposit as in:

Alternatively will they accept (say) a similar 3, 6 ,9 or 12 month fixed deposit?

Thank you.

It can only be my opinion but believe it would be accepted as you have account in Baht cash and access to full amount at any time.
