No, there is no inactivity penalty on your account. It will remain valid.

I had opened an account with them many years ago as a tourist. Set idle for 4-5 years before I moved here and was still alive. Opened in Phuket and when I moved to Chiangmai, they transferred the account to here.

I think the official policy is inactivity for X months + being below a balance like 200-500 Baht, something like that. That said, I've had accounts with them I've opened for single transactions stay active for years, even without a balance in them.

Apparently BoT guidelines allow them to close after 3 years by considering you dead Most banks don't however.
